Has the Typhoon H Pro change the “game of drone”？

Typhoon H Pro is the premium offering from Yuneec- is well-known for its high-end, quality drone. A lot of industry experts and analysts had expected the Typhoon H Pro to heat up the market and mark a new chapter in the efforts by Yuneec to take up a bit more market share.

The Yuneec Typhoon H PRO is a ready-to-fly (RTF) unit that includes the CGO3+ 4K Camera, Typhoon H BackPack, 2 Lipo Batteries, and ST16 Controller. The Yuneec Typhoon H features six easily foldable arms that allow for the copter to be stored easily for transportation. The copter also uses retractable landing to ensure that the 360-degree gimbal is free of any obstructions. The 360-degree gimbal includes the CGO3+ 4K/12 MP camera allowing for stunning aerial videos/photos.

The key innovative feature of the Typhoon H PRO is the collision avoidance technology based on the ‘RealSense’ solution from Intel. It combines laser infra-red and ultra-sonic sensor technologies to detect and avoid even moving obstacles which might cross the flight path of the Typhoon H. The Typhoon H will take evasive manoeuvres as needed autonomously. It works perfectly in congested areas offering a carefree follow me function like it has never been seen before.

The RealSense technology by Intel offers several smart functions integrated into the system including CYCLE, Point of interest (POI), Curve Cable Cam (CCC), JOURNEY and Front Ultrasound Sensor function. These functions add to the other proven safety features from Yuneec drone like Geo-fencing, Dynamic Return home, Low Battery Return Home and No Fly Zones.

The Typhoon H Pro remote control unit is too large and full of controls. Comparing the DJI Phantom 4 vs Yuneec Typhoon H will show how the DJI drone’s control unit is smaller, lighter, and obviously simpler. For the Typhoon H Pro, the control unit has a lot of buttons and switches that are not easy to reach and haven’t been placed in the most logical position. With all these buttons and switches on the control unit, sometimes the pilot can get confused as to which one serves what exact purpose.

Yet despite my reservations about the Yuneec Typhoon H pro,I still think it’s a really good prosumer drone.
