competitors is that it doesn’t require the drone to be linked to a smartphone. ![]() One of the features I have always loved about Yuneec’s products vs. All those features means the Typhoon H has a beast of a ground station too. Auto Take Off: Takes off with the tap of a button ground station. ![]() Team Mode: Allows the pilot operate the drone separately by binding it to the Wizard, allowing the filmmaker to control the camera at the same time by binding it to the ST16 Ground Station. Curve Cable Cam: Flies between pre-set coordinates enabling the user to independently control the camera position. Point of Interest Mode: Orbits a selected subject autonomously. Orbit Me Mode: Flies a circular path around you, keeping the camera trained on you the whole time. Here they are in a nutshell (and I can’t wait for my next Flyday to continue trying them out myself!): Journey Mode: Rises up to 150 feet high and then takes an aerial selfie. I’ve only flown the Typhoon H one day so far, so I’ll be honest - I didn’t even get to demo the other flight modes. The Yuneec Typhoon H has a ton of flight modes. But sometimes, you need to photograph something behind you! This feature is perfect because it allows you to fly with ease while getting the shots you need - from any direction. The 360-degree range of motion camera is really important to me because - I’ll admit it - I’m TERRIBLE at flying nose-in. The touch of one button on the controller and the landing gear can retract, ensuring that the legs never get in the frame of your shot. Which leads to the next new feature about the drone - retractable landing gear. What’s cool about this drone is it can be rotated through 360-degree range of motion. Like its predecessor, the Q500, the drone has a 3-axis anti-vibration CGO3+ gimbal camera that produces 4K, ultra-stable high definition video and 12 megapixel images. But the gem of this copter is its collision prevention.The Typhoon H comes with two sonar sensors on the front, just above the camera, meaning it can sense and avoid objects in front of it. The foldable arms also make it much easier to travel with. It also has quick-release propellers, which are easier to mount and dismount than the Q500 before it. It’s a hexacopter (6 rotors), meaning it is able to continue flying with 5 rotors in case one fails. ![]() First things first: wipe the words quadcopter from your vocabulary if you’re referring to this. It has the qualities you would expect for a professional level drone, but at a consumer price tag. The $1,299 Yuneec Typhoon H is unlike any other drone in its price range that I have reviewed. It looks like a Tornado, but it’s priced like a Typhoon Q500. The Yuneec Typhoon H has gone full beast mode.
