Yuneec Typhoon 4K Drone Unboxing, Setup and Flight Testing

In this episode, the Roswell Flight Test Crew unboxes, sets up and tests the Q500 4K quadcopter from Yuneec. Equipped with an integrated CGO3 4K video camera mounted in a ball-turret-style three-axis gimbal, the Q500 is a purpose-built aerial camera platform. The video is streamed to the pilot by a screen that is built in to the ST10 control transmitter, which also provides aircraft telemetry. The camera can be quickly disconnected from the aircraft and attached to the included Steadygrip for ground-based operations. The crew compares the aircraft's performance in “tortoise” and “hare” mode (also known as “turtle” and “rabbit” mode), provides a close-up look at the camera gimbal in action and wraps up with a demonstration of the Typhoon's GPS-enabled “Watch Me” mode by bicycling around a nature park and also engages a hidden Attitude Mode, allowing for more aggressive maneuvers.

I have to hand it to you guys... You did the best unboxing and demo of the "Q" that I have seen yet. Your demonstration of turtle/tortoise and rabbit/hare and the supervised gimbal view were excellent. You really focused on the features of this platform. Well done!

This is one of the best unboxing test videos. Just the right length and all the bits we need to know

Hands up! The best review for Yuneec Q500! You are amazing guys and this video should have at least 3 million views!

I think the monitor on the controller does well without the sunshield in bright light. It’s a machine you never get tired of flying.
Great video!

SUPER GREAT vid guys. So informative. You answered a lot if not most of my questions, I think this is the drone for me. The effort put into making the video is superb!
One thing was you didn't say what was bad about the drone.

my high school STEM class is letting us do a final project on anything we want and my group chose to do a drone to record and take pictures of our football games and upload them to our school website. and funding is going to be a problem for us and i wanted to know everything i can before purchasing this drone and may i say, you have done a great job on explaining the features of this drone, thank you

[moondarck]

One of the best gadget reviews I've seen, ever. It showed all the important stuff anyone would need to know before buying this drone, well done, sirs! If I had any doubts about getting this product, well they are gone now, not that I'm buying it, but if I was it would be thanks to your review. Nice, and funny work.

Fantastic video. I recently got the Q500 4k and I'm still watching these "beginner details" videos just to look to find anything else I've missed and you guys did a great job covering from box to flight! You've got a new subscriber.

Hey guys, what a video!  Thanks. This really helped in deciding to get this drone. I absolutely love it and, for the money you really cannot beat it. Looking forward to your upcoming videos...!

when you arm it, it can be transported in the alum case, already armed so as not to be armed and disarmed each time it is transported

Excellent video...One question..what about object avoidance...Does any drone have it ? So if its following you and there are trees around will it avoid them ?
