Just the battery you could know why the Typhoon H is worse

Yuneec Typhoon H battery

The battery performance of Yuneec Typhoon H is annoying for its recharge time.It takes more than two hours for a full charge which is twice as long as the Phantom 4.

Here is some case from pilots with Yuneec Typhoon H battery.

“I was out today and tried an experiment I have suspected that when running videos most of the time 15 minutes is about as safe as I can get on a new Typhoon H battery. Next battery flew for 35 minutes taking about half dozen photos at about 400 feet out and 200 feet up. The third battery I flew fast and high taking a few videos and photos and got a low battery at 400 feet up and barely got it down in time, 20 minutes.

Bottom line you have to pay attention to ‘everything’ when you fly, weather, wind, taking videos, flying fast and climbing fast. I have two DJI Phantoms and they will fly circles around these Yuneec’s, the Yuneec’s are very slow in response time. Do love the camera that takes fantastic videos in 4K though.”

“I took my Typhoon H up for its first flight. All I basically did was hover at different altitudes and moved short distances taking a series of pictures. From the first picture to the last picture was only about 15mins. Then I was forced to land with low voltage warning. The battery meter on the st16 was showing over 14 volts and the little icon showed half battery. So I took it up again to about 85 feet to take one last picture and before I could frame the shot it started to return to home. Will the battery break in or is something defective. Other Typhoon H owners say they are getting 18 to 20 mins. Oh, and the wind was minimal.”

Of course, the battery performance of a drone will depend on what the pilot does with his bird, and what the conditions are on any given day. More wind means less flight time, as the drone has to work harder to stay stable. Still, with a two-hour recharge time, Typhoon H users will have to bear with the inconvenience of carrying two extra batteries or three.
