This version of the Typhoon H from YUNEEC employs Intel RealSense Technology for enhanced autonomously flying. This navigation aid maps the environment in 3D to help avoid obstacles and provide positional data when GPS is limited or unavailable. Additionally, the hexacopter features the GCO3+ gimbal-stabilized, 4K camera with 12MP stills mode, making it a perfect choice for aerial imaging of all types. The Typhoon H’s hexa-rotor design offers better flight stability and more precise control compared to four-rotor systems – plus, it means failure of a single motor will not be fatal. The landing gear retracts in-flight, offering an unobstructed 360 degrees of shooting. Carbon fiber parts and folding motor arms reduce the Typhoon H’s weight and profile for easy transport – even to the remotest of locations.
This bundle features the ST16 smart transmitter (radio controller), two flight batteries, the Wizard TV remote-style controller, and a soft backpack.
Intel RealSense Technology
- Intel RealSense Technology enables the Typhoon H to fly autonomously, intelligently navigating around objects and taking both safety and your creative options to the next level
- The Intel RealSense R200 Camera and the Intel Atom processor module work seamlessly with the flight control firmware to add intelligent obstacle navigation
- With a combination of specialized cameras and sensors, this system maps and learns its environment in 3D, recognizing each obstacle, planning an alternative route, and navigating around it
- The module adds downward facing sensors to improve stability, enabling indoor flight as well as outdoor flight when close to the ground, even with poor GPS reception
- Remembers previously avoided objects for future reference
- Intel Atom-powered sensor module
- Dedicated RealSense R200 camera
Flight Control System
- No Fly Zones
- The No Fly Zone preset locks the Typhoon H’s flight ceiling at 400′ above ground level at the takeoff point. This feature helps ensure compliance with FAA sUAS operational guidelines. In addition, Geo-Fencing can be enabled to further restrict possible flight patterns, locking the hexacopter within a user-defined radius of the pilot
- Dynamic Return to Home
- Simply switch to Home Mode and Typhoon H will return and land within 26′ of you
- Point-of-Interest (POI)
- Locks the hexacopter in a circular orbit pattern around the takeoff point. This mode is especially useful for creating a circular “tracking” shot with a bird’s eye view. In this mode the camera can still be moved independently
- Orbit Me
- The Typhoon H flies a circular path around you, keeping the camera trained on you the whole time. This is similar to Point-of-Interest, except locking onto the pilot rather than an arbitrary object
- Journey
- The Typhoon H will fly up and out, as far as 150′, and capture the perfect aerial selfie
- Curve Cable Cam
- Program an invisible route for Typhoon H to fly along. Typhoon H will fly between pre-set coordinates while independently controlling camera position
- Watch Me / Follow Me
- Watch Me ensures Typhoon H will stay in one place and always point the camera at you wherever you go. Follow Me tells Typhoon H to keep the camera pointed at you as it moves along with you
ST16 Personal Ground Station
- Transmitter (handheld radio controller) and ground station system are combined into one device with the included 16-channel ST16. It features a 2.4 GHz transmitter for joystick operation of the quadcopter. In addition, there is a 5.8 GHz-range receiver for the video feed from the camera plus telemetry data. For ground station functions, it features a built-in Android device with 7″ touchscreen
- 7″ Built-In FPV Display
- View a live feed on the ST16’s 7″, 720p resolution display. In addition, it can show telemetry data from the flight controller, such as altitude, GPS coordinates, and remaining battery life. Settings can be accessed via its touchscreen interface
- Waypoint Navigation
- Ground station functionality provided by the ST16 includes waypoint navigation. With this autopilot mode, apply pushpins to a map to create “waypoints” that define the Typhoon H’s course. Altitude, speed, and heading can all change at each waypoint
CGO3+ 4K Camera with 3-Axis Gimbal
- The included CGO3+ combines a 12-megapixel, 4K camera and a 3-axis brushless gimbal into a single unit designed to capture stabilized aerial video and still images. For live view and remote operation, the camera features an integrated 5.8 GHz video downlink that enables operation and viewing from the 7″ touchscreen on the ST16 Personal Ground Station. You can also pair with a mobile device using the free mobile app – available at Google Play and iTunes app stores
- Wizard Wand for Two-Operator Control
- The included Wizard Wand is a TV remote-style controller that can be used alongside the ST16. This means better videos and photos with one operator piloting the drone and one operating the camera
