Typhoon H Video - Steady Drive

[@mroyce411]

I ordered and received this recently. It is amazing to use and makes my video efforts so much better. I fly for fun and do share the videos with friends and others to share the experience. Great product.

Hey Patrick, great little invention with the Steady Drive device. Yuneec doesn't know how fortunate they are to have you review their products and come up with a few extra accessories that add benefit to us Typhoon H Plus pilots. The H Plus doesn't get enough exposure with DJI being the top dog in drone sales. Due to the fact that the Phantom 5 hasn't come out yet and who knows if it ever will, the H Plus is the best bird to consider based on the 360 degree 1" camera that turns unobstructed with the gear retraced. It even compares favorably to the Inspire 2 for much less money. I'll watch your video on the Steady Drive a few more times and probably order one after I figure our how it will fit into my 107 client missions.

[@johngalloway3595]

You sir are a consumat professional and have explained the Steady Drive in a very understandable fashion. Not sure if you are the inventor but if you are, kudos to your imagination to detail !!

[@buelle109]

It is my creation thank you.

[@jasoncross5684]

Wow wow wow thank you so much. Because of your video series I purchased a typhoon h TODAY and when it arrives I think I will order a steady drive as well. Your videos are so educational and thank you for not talking to quickly. One request please can you do more videos about setting up the st16 controller and explaining all that it can do. Thanks again your fan from the UK.

[@kevlec1947]

Thank you, I just ordered the ST16 Tray and the Steady Drive..Cheers from Brisbane Australia..

[@Jason_Hermann]

Excellent work and thanks for your awesome videos ;)

[@echostarling84]

I'm so glad I found your channel. You have a fan, a subscriber, and now for sure a customer of your products. Please keep up the quality content!

[@joefuller3467]

I’m still to much of a beginner for this but I can’t wait to get good enough to buy this.....great invention you gained a new subscriber

[@buelle109]

Thanks

[@thesummitofcourse]

Very useful device. Thanks for all of your videos.

[@davidvelen9835]

Wow great work Patrick, thanks for all you do !!

[@kevlec1947]

ST16 Tray and the Steady Drive arrived today.

I’m considering buying a Yuneec Typhoon H Plus and while doing my research I came across your KZbin Channel. Your channel is super informative and through your videos you’ve answered all my questions. My situation is that I’ve seen lots of videos where drone pilots test flight time on one battery. But I haven’t seen anyone conduct flight endurance tests with the Typhoon H Plus (or any drone for that matter) where 3 or 4 batteries are used back-to-back in immediate succession to gauge engine overheating, performance, etc. Are you aware of any such video? And if so, could you please point me in that direction? Thanks much!

[@buelle109]

While I have not done a video of what you ask, I have done this on many occasions, three flights back to back with only the battery change in between. No problems. Average flight time with a new battery and good conditions is 18 to 20 minutes. Keep in mind - max temperature of the aircraft, battery bay, engines and so on is reached after a flight when the aircraft sits on the ground - all of the components begin to heat sink. I have used a laser thermometer and confirmed this. The aircraft is the coolest when running and max temps are reached easily within a minute unless your in freezing temps.

[@chevy77rock]

I'm pretty new to drone photography. I've watched several of your typhoon H videos and appreciate your detailed explanations! Thank you for the time you have invested in your videos! Do you know if it is possible to set up, with the typhoon H, a predefined course and take georeferenced photos that may be stitched together? Looking into making large area 2D aerial photos that are georeferenced.

[@RonDonson]

I’ve ordered mine. No need to refer back to college physics. 🤪. Patrick, thanks for another great tool for the Typhoon H.

[@buelle109]

Thanks Ron and Thanks again for watching

[@ampedbusinesssportsmedia]

Sir, I have kept an eye out for your content, and I would like to thank you for the time you put into your channel. ND Filters? If so which?

[@buelle109]

Thank you. I have a set of the Freewell Filters. Unfortunately Free well no longer makes them but you be able to find a set at some dealers. The alternative is to use the adapter ring supplied by Yuneec that will allow a standard male threaded type of filter at 40.5 mm.

[@rhampton1914]

i got mine 2 months ago and i absolutely love it..breathtaking Videos...thanks for your Channel. i love it..i just subscribed...

[@KTHKUHNKK]

Can you please tell us what you think about Yuneecs future. Lots of people are concerned due to the lack of good customer service. As it used to. Thanks Keith Kuhn

[@carloscuriel6308]

Patrick, thank you for sharing your knowledge on the typhoon. What is your recommendation on 107 certificarion? There are so many online courses out there. What do you think is the best way to get certified?

[@buelle109]

You're welcome, glad to make these videos. As for the 107, I self studied. I know there are a lot of great courses and the prices have come down dramatically over the past three years but I decided that I wanted to really understand the material and to do that, I just downloaded all the necessary PDF's right from the FAA site and began to study. I also found some practice tests and regularly used them. I guess if I was going to take a course I might go with Remote Pilot

[@carloscuriel6308]

@@buelle109 Thank you Sir, I have been doing just that. I too live in FL, relocating to west of the big kake. Look forward to your next video.

[@NewZonaRides]

Great idea. It takes a lot more flying to do shots like that with my drone.

[@joedietrich9386]

Patrick - Great videos, very professional and I've enjoyed watching them. Great invention!

[@moodberry]

Steady Drive is a great invention. However, your website is broken on several links.

[@jedi7762]

Very interesting, señor...

[@lubecer7415]

What is the yellow tube on the landing gear? Thank you.

[@buelle109]

Hello, that Yellow device is a water recovery system called 'Getterback' - there is a link in the description above. It basically has a float that deploys should the drone encounter water and the float goes to the surface and there is a line attached that will allow you to recover the drone from depths up to 100 feet. It won't save your drone but you might be able to recover it should it ever land or fall into water.

[@lubecer7415]

Thank you. I do inner ocean whale watching and that might come in handy. Looks like you are a fan of the H plus, I'm close to getting one. @@buelle109

[@ekpemawulidaniel35]

Do you still have the typhoon h now. Does it fly in 2024 and do you get updates?

[@buelle109]

Still have my H Plus. It does still fly (out today) but there are no further updates.

[@ekpemawulidaniel35]

@@buelle109 good to know

[@DemiFlower1010]

Hi again I have a question I noticed your link to the battery adapter charger plug at Amazon says it is for a typhoon h not a plus. Does it work OK with the plus? Because I noticed there is a banana plug for the H and they are on backorder and the balance cord looks different please let me know what the case is as I already ordered the one from the link here. Thanks again

[@buelle109]

The charge leads for the Plus are indeed different that those for the standard Typhoon H.

[@dronesiviews]

HI. Is this company and drone still supported? I like the idea of the Typhoon H but have heard they are out of business and not supporting these birds anymore. Is this true?

[@DavidHosten]

Excellent info and presentation. Subscribed.

[@Steve53]

Hi I'm new to drone flying and at the moment I only have a MJX Bugs 4W its good for a beginner but the picture quality is not great with it only having a 1 axle gimble, I really like the Yuneec Typhoon Pro, and can see its a great drone, would you recommend it as my next drone, I'm not worried about the price but don't want to get my next drone and regret buying it, any thoughts would be appreciated, ive had this drone for 5 months.

[@buelle109]

The Typhoon H Pro (not to be confused with Typhoon H Plus) as well as the standard Typhoon H's have been discontinued. However they may still be found at some retailers. The Typhoon H and H Pro are a good intermediate level drone with a decent 12 mega pixel camera, I used mine for two years and it performed well. The Typhoon H Plus was released here in the US a year and a half ago and it is a superb platform with a 20 megapixel camera and improved flight software. I still have my Plus and it has performed flawlessly for me. Yuneec is slated to release the H3 but the exact date is unknown, it will be very similar to the H Plus but they have partnered with Leica and the H3 will have a 20 megapixel camera with a Leica lens. To date there is very little imagery from the new platform outside of Yuneec's own website, so time will tell if it is any better than the H Plus and 520.

[@Steve53]

@@buelle109 thanks for your reply gratefully received.

[@drrc5841]

I have noticed very fluid movement panning down/up in your videos. I have ruined many shots with the H because of the gimbals quick and rough tilt speed. How do you adjust this? This is the only drone that is a problem for me in this area.

[@buelle109]

Next video - I will go into this

[@drrc5841]

buelle109 Thank you! I look forward to it. This concern is aimed at the Typhoon H, not plus.

[@drrc5841]

Also, I have trouble stopping the camera at the point I want to.

[@flyvideom]

Good Job

[@sudburydrone466]

Take my money.... Will get back to you when I try it out.

[@jason3775]

Yellow thing on the landing gear?

[@buelle109]

Getterback. Its a water recovery system. There is a Link in the description.

[@grumpyjohntxredneckrc6346]

VERY C@@L & Yuneec! LOL Thanks

[@erictea3661]

received my steady drive good product however would have been even better in a round tin as shown the unit and in a small box as it cost me import charge of 15 pounds for the extra box size

[@erictea3661]

the steady drive is a brilliant peace of kit and recommended
