Just bought H+ and can’t be happyer! I hope they can get the cruise control also in +. So like you said ” it gives you time to take perfect shot.”
Watching now, and super interested in the camera specifically!! Your input is as good as it gets, so thank you very much for the efforts ;) looks like the video quality is hugely improved to me... awesome!
Well done, Pat! Definitely on my wish list.
Good video 👍 tks my h+ just arrived I'm ready all instructions b4 I take it in the air. I had a q500 lost gpS an crash. Now I have this monster. I've learned a lot buy watching your videos. This thing will do 45mph. That's fast.
Great info definitely helped firm up my decision to go ahead and buy. Thanks!
I'm glad they have updated the Typhoon H, I hope the camera is competitive with other newer drones hitting the market this summer. Nice first look at the new plus model.
Great review on the H Plus, I have had the H for nearly 2 years! About a year ago I had to get a Phantom 4 Pro due to Yuneec dropping the ball with the new at the time with the H520. I, as many other devoted Yuneec Typhoon H pilots were hugely disappointed as the E90 would not be available to the original H. I love flying the H compared to the P4P, but the camera quality was amazing compared to the older CGO3+ and the colours from the sensor were easier to match in post production.
Looks like my next drone will be the H Plus as the H is very quiet compared to the phantom and the Plus will be even quieter! Using drones for Real Estate Photos and Video noise is an important factor, the less attention you get the easier my job is :)
Plus when people see a Typhoon H compared to a Phantom they seem very excited to ask me about it lol :)
Once again great review and looking forward to more!
Sounds about like my experience. When the 520 flopped I was very tempted to get a P4P but waited and got the best of both worlds and couldn't be happier - a Superb Flyer, A fantastic camera (as long as you use the DNG's or video) and in general; an aircraft and controller layout that is about as close to perfect as can be. I also use do Real Estate Photography and the Typhoon just fits the bill.
Since my last post I bought an H Plus. Still DNG files are better than the P4P! Corner to corner sharpness and very detailed. Video is on par with P4P but the Plus is a better bird to fly so now I’m selling my P4P :-)
Just got my H Plus and the JPG's are amazing
Great video Pat, very informative as usual. Thanks.
Thanks a million. Great video. Want to buy one myself and its great to hear from an owner
Always enjoy the professional videos you put out for us all to enjoy and learn from. That PX4 flight controller had to make the H+ better!
Another great vid, I'm still getting to grips with 480 RS.
I am looking forward to your next video on the typhoon h plus as many of us are keep them coming Buell
Another great video. Thanks!
Nicely produced video and review.
just got it today and am really intimidated by it as its my first drone ever lol
U should buy a cheap drone to fly first thats what i did when i bought my phantomadvance 4 years ago i kept it in the closet and learnd how to fly first on a small hubsan502e and then after a lot of flying the small one and learning on it did i have confidence to fly that big expensive quad im glad i started off on the cheap one i didnt want to crash it and i never did crash it.
Thank you for a excellent down to earth informative video.
As in the past, great video! I hope you do NOT mothball the Typhoon H Video Series.
Thank you for all you do to help us new(er) to the hobby!
Thanks for this, I was on the fence was actually thinking of going the DJI Route but this looks really good
I love the features of the THP for the price and it looks so stable and graceful. It's just a shame for me that the live picture transmission is no higher than 720p. I livestream sports events, so 1080p is a must really.
footage looks great!
Very very nice I cannot wait to see you next video on the plus I'm excited even though I have the typhoon H 480 which I will be sticking with. Keep up the good work .
Keith Kuhn
Great Video, Thanks!!!
Looks pretty good but the proof is how good is in that camera, it would have been nice to see the unedited dng files. i'm looking for what the camera does to the horizon. The Typhoon H's camera specifically is a major week point for any serious photographer. One item is the horizon is often curved and difficult to deal with in post. How is the Plus in this area?
The Plus is significantly better than the standard Typhoon H in terms of lens distortion and is heads and shoulders above it in terms of image quality and depth. I have been doing real estate photography with the Typhoons for a little over 2 and a half years and while the Standard H was 'okay' the Plus can deliver imagery that will rival some DSLRs if you are using the DNGs and proper technique. I will say that there is still a slight amount of horizon curve at the edges when the camera is tilted down but this can usually be fixed in post either by the use of filters or a simple crop.
@@buelle109 off hand do you know if the Plus can bracket for HDR, Thanks for more detailed info still using my H for right now good videos.
It would be interesting to see how the Typhoon compares to the new Mavic 2 pro. I was going to buy the former, but ended up buying the latter. The Typhoon though looks the business.
Well done. A couple questions. Did you find ND filters for it? Do you think the plus is still a worthwhile investment in 2021?
Great vid, Pat. Impartial and clear. We linked to it on a Support Center.
I believe you have an RS model, so I'm hoping you will do an in-depth vid of the RealSense in operation. One thing on the Plus I personally don't like is the small print in the top right panel of info (yep, old eyes, lol).
We see the batteries and charger are identical to the H520.
Yes I have the RS version. Originally I was going to wait for the non-RS Plus as I normally would not use it but now that I have it I will delve into it a little more. Correct on the Batteries - they are the same as the 520 and even though they do not have it printed anywhere on the battery they are indeed LiHV, not regular LiPo's
Does it have the same shutter lag as the standard H when shooting stills? I have found the best results by shooting video at 4K and using software to extract stills from the video file. I am still learning to handle the H properly, so I don't plan to upgrade any time soon. I do like the look of the Plus, though.
great review!!!!!!
Hey bud, it's too bad you haven't made any videos lately. I hope everything is 👍 with you and your loved ones. Come back soon.
Thanks for reaching out. All is well here and in fact I have videos in the works as I really enjoy making them. Stay Tuned
I wonder if it takes that long to stop in angle mode as well?
Mavic air for the win!!!!
Haha, it just so happens I have a Mavic 2 Pro and have been flying it for close to a year. My next video is in production and it is a comparison of the two.
So no spoiler alert here but; the Mavic Air is not even in the same league as the Plus or the Mavic 2 Pro it is perhaps a good entry level drone
Great video! I just bought the Typhoon H Plus yesterday. I had a Typhoon Q500 4k which I sold last year for $600. So I have been droneless for over a year up until yesterday. Looking forward to flying this thing as soon as all this rain stops. By the way, have you found any ND filters for the H+? I can't find any at all yet for the new camera. Looking forward to more videos!!
David, you can use the same filters as for the E90 camera that is on the 520 - Freewell makes a couple of different sets or; you can find 40.5 MM filters and use the step up ring.
buelle109 Thank you for answering my question. I didn't even consider using the E90 ND filters. Will be ordering those today.
Typhoon H Plus vs Inspire 2 which copter is better?
Can you get the H plus w/o the RealSense? What is the projected max range of the H plus? Thank you.
Did you mention the extended flying time on the Plus compared to the older H , 28mins as opposed to 18 mins .
An important improvement .
I did not mention anything about flight times and while I am getting slightly longer flights out of the Plus, the time difference (when batteries are new) is only about a minute or two. So I can get 17-18 minutes on a new Typhoon (LiPo) battery in a 480, and on the Plus with a new (LiHV) battery you can squeeze maybe 19 minutes out. However, there is a steep downside as LiHV batteries begin to lose this advantage much quicker. After 50 flights you'll lose a couple minutes and after 100 flights on a Plus battery you'll be lucky to get 13-14 minutes.
When you figure the higher cost in, this slight advantage for the first thirty flights of an LiHV battery is really not worth it. And on the same note; when I put a standard Typhoon battery in my Plus I can get about the same flight times, but for sure there is nor real flight time advantage for the Plus.
@@buelle109 Thanks for your excellent reviews, actual practical reports is much better than manufacturer claims ( it's a bit like car MPG ) it's very interesting that the flight time is a lot less (eight minutes less) than Yuneec claim for the "plus", and I agree I think the extra cost is not worth paying. I think you have saved me a lot of disappointment.
@@WildPhotoShooter Yeah, Yuneec also used to claim the standard H would fly 'Up To' 25 minutes but that is not possible either. The true value of the Plus is the Camera - it is in another league compared to the CG03 and the flying is even better than expected. If you're happy with the CG03 the standard Typhoon is still a good value for sure.
@@buelle109 Do you know if most, or all drones fall short on claimed flight times ? I was also looking at the Mavic2Pro they also claim almost 30 minutes. I haven't looked at any reviews of the Mavic yet. My thinking is that if they all fall short on claimed flight times then it not really a problem buying the Yuneec plus.
@@WildPhotoShooter I am not sure about all drones but my guess would be that most over estimate their flight times. For me flight time was a lower priority for the kind of work and even recreational flying I do but I can see how longer flight times may be necessary for other types of flying.
Just wondering how Yuneec's customer service is. I know DJI is terrible.
Great review, they should be paying you, because i think after watching this I will be pulling the trigger and buying one as my very first drone. Any advice on how to learn this drone and flying in general would be very appreciated. I think you are in Florida, like me - I am in the Boca Raton area. New subscriber, and thanks again for any advice you may be willing to give this new dronie.
You're very welcome. I Used to be in Pal,m Beach but now am east of Orlando. One of the first things you should do is look up our forum 'Yuneec Pilots Forum' and join. Lots of good information that is vital especially if your new to Yuneec. Hope to see you there.
Can you post a video of them both side by side? The Plus seems a little more silver
does the camera from the plus fit on the reg TH? Does it feed correctly?
No, the C23 is not compatible with the standard Typhoon H as of now, though there have been, and continue to be rumors that Yuneec was or is going to make it so in the future.
Thanks for your review. Now unsure, DJI or Tyhoon!!??
New SUB!
Thanks for the pretty good video. How about the camera clip?
Is for sale and have Mavic now. Found not in bag
Lost my charger for my H plus you wouldn’t have one or know how I could get one. Can only find a double charger at Yuneec from Europe
Can i fly in ATTI mode
Sincerely, Heino from Denmark
Looks like Glades High School in Coral Springs, I live near there...where else can you fly in Broward County?
Actually this was shot in central Florida - Seminole Country
Very Nice Video... Although it would have been nice to hear your impressions on the Realsense Technology... Which is the key to this drone.
Realsense has been on the 480 for almost two years and while it has some nice features and does provide a level of OA in addition to the sonar, it still has its limits as to how much one can rely on it. For my type of flying it is not something I would ever use, but your point is well taken and I will include it in a future video.
Hi, i just decided to update from typhoon h pro, to plus :)
I love your presentation.
PS after i will buy it,i understand i must buy filters also,and more,becouse all my accesories from h pro,dont fit with plus :))
Yes unfortunately.
Very informative video. I've been looking at the H Plus since it was announced. Will be picking one up today since my Q500 died on me yesterday. Any generic batteries for the H Plus yet?
Btw, I'm just around the corner from you in Winter Springs. I looked for a way to send you a PM but YT has changed their interface so much now that I can't find how to do it! If you're interested in heading out with your cameras (any of them) you can reach me from my website (link is on the home page of my YT channel). Again, great video.
Oh, I also watched your vid on the Oviedo Ranger Tower. That's one of the first places I'll be heading to with my new H Plus and my Nikon D500. It's a cool area.
Hey TJ, so far no generic for the Plus. Just a heads up the Plus uses the same batteries as the 520 and are slightly different in that they are LiHV instead of LiPo, so the storage levels, voltages and so forth are different. Thanks for watching.
I got phantom 4 reg version I'm thinking to sell it and get this drone what u think? Because I think this h plus will wipe flour with it
I Think the Phantom 4 has a very good camera and for a long time, this is what the Typhoon lacked. Now the Plus is on par, and some might say; has a better camera, I will leave that for the experts. The Plus and Phantom 4 are very different, each has advantages over the other. In the end it should come down to which one has the best fit for the end user. Personally, I find the retractable gear and 360 rotating camera to be good for what I do and the flight modes and controller with built in screen have a greater appeal to me.
@@buelle109 ok thank u. I made my mind I'm getting h plus pro
Hi,
How it is the camera and h plus after one year later?
Still working great, maybe a topic for a future video.
@@buelle109 thanks for reply. Right now I own a mavic 2 zoom, and before I own a yuneec typhoon h pro. I miss 360 degrees rotation. And I think to switch back to yuneec.
With h pro I got some problems, the image was shaking (not bad but enough for my eyes),and sometimes I lose video signal.
Is happening to h plus that too?
@@GabrielZota The video from my Plus has been very steady with no shake as you can see in some of my videos. I think the Mavic 2 is a great machine and has a lot going for it in areas that the Plus doesn't, such as size and portability. I have often thought of getting a M2P to complement my Plus but I also think the retractable gear and 360 gimbal make the Typhoon a standout in it's class.
@@buelle109 you are right with all. Because I had before h pro and now I own mavic 2 zoom, I know what I want. But if those problems are gone I prefer h plus over the zoom.
Portability is the biggest factor, but I can live with that, because all time a go fo a video shooting. I go with my car
I’m buying this or the Phantom 4 Pro 2 -- which do you refer ?
James, I have no experience with P4P - 2 so I can't really give you an honest answer. I think that each has it's strengths and weaknesses and we just need to decide which fits our needs the best. I must say that for the last year I was very tempted to get a P4P but held off waiting for this and am happy so far.
buelle109 great insight, the thing that gets me is the 400’ foot ceiling no fly zone. Is that something you can tweak?
The Typhoon H Plus allows you to Unlock height restrictions from the controller
buelle109 ooohhhhhh 😯 that’s a game changer... so now I’m stuck.. a $1700 Yuneec Plus or a $1500 P4PV2... money in hand now too haha... I just gotta pick!
1 inch cmos? Why isn't anybody talking about this
This video was intended to be a general overview of the entire system. While the camera (and it's 1" inch sensor) is the big selling point, there were other major improvements. I will be doing more videos and going into specifics on several point including the camera in the near future
Yeah, just crazy how much attention dji gets when there is other great companies doing really good things.
why hand catch when it lands its self?
There are times when landing on level solid ground might not be an option such as; a boat in the water, rocky or uneven ground, very high grass or weeds, side of a hill and so on.
HOW DOES THIS COMPARE TO THE H W/REALSENSE
The Standard Typhoon H is a solid machine and has a decent camera. The Typhoon H Plus, flies better - smoother and there is no comparison between the C23 and the CG03+ cameras. The C23 is far superior.
Im not a DJI fan boy but wow what has yuneec done.. Its been three years since I saw this competing with the phantom 3. They have achieved very little engineering advancement and for the price, why wouldn't you go for a mavic 2 pro. This didn't even compete with the phantom 4 pro so now its obsolete. Sure camera is good, but you cant take this anywhere. Sad because I liked the type of flying experience yuneec was offering (More RC style controller etc), but they have done nothing..
Well since no one has answered; let me answer as honestly as I can. What Yuneec has done is; they have taken the layout and platform of the Typhoon H, added a superb camera, added a splendid flight control system - totally different from the 480, added new more powerful and quieter motors that have improved performance across the board, improved flight precision and finally given those of us who like not only; to have those items but also coupled them with a retractable landing gear platform that allows 360 degree camera movement and eventually a team mode that will allow independent flight and camera operators.
And while I realize that to the non Yuneec flyer it may appear as though nothing has changed; if one only stares at the physical attributes and disregards all of the above, however the same type of view could certainly be laid upon the Phantom Line in a similar way, can it not?
In the end, I could shoot a video using a Plus, a P4P, and an MP2 and after editing into a final video, most viewers would have a hard time spotting which footage came from what platform. Its not about the platform, its truly is about; what you can do with it.
Thanks for replying man! Yeah I look I can definitely see some of those points. The footage is really good I must admit, but P4P or M2P is outstanding as well. For me it comes down to portability, practicality and onboard technology. Once you get over the cool factor of a retractable landing gear and multiple props, this product ends up failing all three of those categories. Its loud, big and intrusive to the environment. It's also hard to move around and once you get over the cool controller, the onboard technology this thing has is barebone compared to DJI. Im really sad that they let it go but I mean that's just my opinion and I don't own one - so I cant say for sure.
Well having flown RC and UAVs for 40 years, including holding waivers for turbine powered flight and aircraft over 55 pounds, I can assure you there is very little cool factor in a consumer drone that sways my decision ;-) the retractable gear allows camera shots that are not possible on fixed gear aircraft, that's all. I get your points and needs, but not everyone's needs are the same. I was real close about six months ago to adding a P4P to my business but I held out for the Plus and I am glad I did. The nanny-ware of the DJI was the deal breaker and the only one mind you. Its a great platform just not what I wanted.
