Place Typhoon H on a level and stable surface then power on the ST16 Ground Station. Press and hold power button on Typhoon H. Release the button when the aircraft emits a rising tune. DO NOT TOUCH OR MOVE THE Typhoon H UNTIL THE INITIALIZATION PROCESS IS COMPLETE. The gimbal camera will spin to the front position.

NOTICE: If the main LED blinks red slowly, the initialization has failed. The aircraft needs to be powered on again. To power off the aircraft, press and hold the power button until the aircraft emits a falling tune.

NOTICE: After hearing a rising tune, the main LED indicator will blink green for 1 to 2 seconds once with flight battery fully charged, yellow with half charged and red with low voltage.

 

STARTING/STOPPING THE MOTORS

NOTICE: Only with sustainable GPS or IPS activated or GPS being turned off, the motors can be started or stopped by pressing the START/STOP button.

NOTICE: After the GPS is turned off, IPS will be turned off automatically and theindoor positioning function will be disabled.

OPTION 1Press and hold the START / STOP button for about 3 seconds to start, and about 2 secondsto stop the motors. Step back approximately 26 feet (8 meters) behind Typhoon H, make sure the ST16 Ground Station is in the Angle mode. When there is suitable GPS signal for both the ST16 Ground Station and Typhoon H, or IPS for the aircraft, you can start the motors.

OPTION 2With the GPS of both the aircraft and the ST16 Ground Station locked, the pilot can select Camera/Task switch icon, and tap the Take Off on the task row. Make sure the pilot is more than 5 meters away from the aircraft and then slide the icon on the screen, the aircraft will take off and hover at default height.

 

FLIGHT CONTROLS (SINGLE MODE)

To take off, slowly raise the left-hand stick to above the center position. Typhoon H will take off and climb slowly (or raise the stick further until it does). Allow the stick to return to the center position when Typhoon H reaches the desired altitude.

FLYING (OBS AVOID OFF)Take your time learning how Typhoon H responds to various control inputs while flying. In Smart Mode, Typhoon H will always move in the direction the right-hand control stick is pushed relative to the pilot and no matter which way the front/nose is pointed. In Angle (Pilot) Mode, Typhoon H will move in the direction the control stick is pushed relative to the front/nose of the aircraft (and the ‘angle’ of movement is determined by how far you push the stick away from the center position).

FLYING (OBS AVIOD ON)In the smart mode ,the TYPHOON H will always move in the direction the right-hand control stick is pushed. The TYPHOON H will turn its nose in accord with the direction it will fly first, then move forward in the direction. The aircraft will avoid obstacles automatically and then fly according to the remote control.

In Angle mode, the aircraft will stop in front of the obstacle.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If at any time during flight you feel like Typhoon H is drifting out of/beyond your control, simply release both control sticks. Typhoon H will automatically self-level and will even hold its position (with a suitable GPS signal/lock and OBS AVOID off) when both control sticks are centered. You can also activate Home Mode and Typhoon H will automatically fly itself back to the home point and lands.

LANDING – There are two ways to land Typhoon H:1) Position Typhoon H above the area where you would like to land. Slowly lower the left-hand stick to below the center position. Typhoon H will descend slowly and land. After Typhoon H lands, press and hold the START/STOP button until the motor stops.

NOTICE: It is recommended to turn off the Obstacle Avoidance when landing.

2) Activate Home Mode and Typhoon H will automatically fly itself back to the home point and land.

NOTICE: After the copter takes off, the pilot can retract the landing gear by switching up the Landing Gear Switch on the top right side of the ST16 Ground Station. Make sure to flip the switch to the downward position when landing.

NOTICE: During the landing phase of the RTH you can fine tune the landing location. As the aircraft nears the ground refrain from touching the direction controls as this can cause the aircraft to tip over.

WARNING: Always land as soon as possible after the first low level voltage battery warning, or land immediately after the second level low voltage battery warning (as indicated by the vibrations and audible alerts from the ST16 Ground Station, and by the Motor LED Status Indicators flashing rapidly). If at any time the Aircraft Battery Voltage shown on the screen is below 14.1V, land Typhoon H immediately.

NOTICE: When the aircraft gives the first-level low voltage warning, it will exit the TASK mode and the functions under the TASK mode won’t be activated.

AFTER LANDINGNOTICE: When the landing gear is lowered down with OBS Switch on, the TYPHOON H can’t fly back in front of the obstacle. When the obstacle moves towards the TYPHOON H, the aircraft won’t fly back automatically. If the aircraft is controlled flying towards the obstacle by the pilot, it will stop in front of the obstacle (when in Angle Mode), or steer clear of the obstacle (when in Smart Mode).ALWAYS turn off Typhoon H BEFORE turning off the ST16 Ground Station. Then remove the battery from Typhoon H and allow it to cool to ambient/room temperature before recharging.

NOTICE: If the signal of the remote control is lost, Typhoon H will automatically return to the home point and hold its position (with a suitable GPS signal/lock) over the home position (except for low battery).

PROPORTIONAL CONTROL RATE SLIDERThe Proportional Control Rate Slider located on the right side of the ST16 Ground Station allows you to set the overall climb/descend and directional control rates. Use the turtle position for the lowest control rates (best for first-time pilots and required when flying between 5000 feet and 8000 feet Above Mean Sea Level), and use the rabbit position for the highest control rates (best for experienced pilots and can only be used when flying below 5000 feet MSL). Or use a position in between if you prefer.

FLIGHT MODESThe ST16 Ground Station is equipped with 3 different flight modes which can be selected by using the mode switch in the top right corner above the right joystick.

 

SMART MODE

When the Flight Mode selection switch is in the top position Typhoon H will be in Smart Mode. Although we recommend learning to fly Typhoon H in Angle (Pilot) Mode as soon as possible, Smart Mode is typically the best mode for beginning pilots to fly in and also features ‘Follow Me’. In Smart Mode (with OBS AVOID OFF) Typhoon H will always move in the direction the right-hand control stick is pushed relative to the pilot and no matter which way the front/nose is pointed. So if you push the stick to the left, Typhoon H will always move to the left, regardless of the direction the nose is pointing and even if it’s spinning. This mode can also be helpful for pilots that lose orientation while flying in Angle (Pilot) Mode.

NOTICE: In smart mode (with OBS AVOID on), the Typhoon H will always move in the direction the right-hand control stick is pushed relative to the pilot. The TYPHOON H will turn its nose in accord with the direction it will fly first, then move forward in the direction. The aircraft will avoid obstacles automatically and then fly according to the remote control.

 

ADDITIONAL SMART MODE FEATURES

FOLLOW METhe Follow Me function allows Typhoon H to follow the pilot, adjusting its location to the location of the ST16 Ground Station. This function is enabled when ST16’s GPS positioning completes, and Typhoon H is using shared GPS signal with the ST16 Ground Station. When Follow Me is activated, the background of the ‘Follow’ character will be red and the icon of Follow [ ] will be highlighted in white. Typhoon H will follow the movement of ST16 Ground Station if there is no extra operation on the ST16 Ground Station. The flight status is also controllable when you operate the ST16 and CGO3+.

IMPORTANT NOTE: After switching on OBS AVOID in Follow Me/Watch Me, the TYPHOON H will steer clear of the obstacle while following the pilot. The distance between the pilot and the aircraft might be farther result from the obstacle.

SMART CIRCLEIn most cases the Smart Circle will keep Typhoon H from coming within approximately26 feet (8 meters) of you (as long as you position yourself at least 26feet/8 meters behind Typhoon H.

GEO-FENCEThe geo-fence is a virtual barrier that will keep Typhoon H from traveling fartherthan 300 feet (91 meters). The geo-fence only works in Smart Mode. Althoughthis limit can be adjusted using the GUI we strongly recommend using thedefault limit at all times.

WARNING: Smart Mode only works when Typhoon H has a suitable GPS signal/lock. If you are flying in Smart Mode and Typhoon H loses GPS signal/lock it will switch to Angle (Pilot) Mode automatically. This is why we strongly recommend learning to fly in Angle (Pilot) Mode as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you lose GPS signal/lock and are not able to properly control Typhoon H in Angle (Pilot) Mode the aircraft may crash or even ‘fly away’.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Crash damage and ‘fly aways’ are NOT covered under warranty.IMPORTANT NOTE: When the ST16 Ground Station is connected to less than 6 satellites, the ‘FOLLOW ME’ feature will be disabled.

NOTICE: If the landing gear is not lowered down in Smart and Angle modes during landing, the aircraft can’t descent less than 6.6 feet (2 meters) from the ground.

NOTICE: When turning off the Realsense, the maximum speed of the TYPHOON H should be less than 37.3MPH. When turning on the Realsense, the maximum speed should be less than 11.2 MPH.

ANGLE MODEWhen the Flight Mode selection switch is the middle position, Typhoon H will be in Angle Mode, also known as in Pilot Mode. Angle (Pilot) Mode is the mode preferred by experienced RC/drone pilots because Typhoon H will move in the direction the control stick is pushed relative to the front/nose of the aircraft. So if you push the right-hand stick to the left Typhoon H will bank toward the left side and move to the left. This means if the front/nose of Typhoon H is pointing away from you it will move to the left, but if the front/nose is pointing at you Typhoon H will move to the right.

NOTICE: When in the Angle Mode, the aircraft will stop in front of the obstacle with realsense activated.

*ADDITIONAL ANGLE (PILOT) MODE FEATURE:The Typhoon H will automatically hold its position (with a suitable GPS signal/lock) and maintain a level attitude when the both joysticks are centered.

WARNING: If you do not properly control Typhoon H in Angle (Pilot) Mode the aircraft may crash or even ‘fly away’.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Crash damage and ‘fly aways’ are NOT covered under warranty.

OBSTACLE AVOID SwitchWith sustainable GPS locked, the realsense can be activated in any mode by being switched on except for the condition that the copter descend vertically at low speed with landing gear down. When the realsense is activated, the front motor LEDs will blink white and the icon on the ST16 screen will be solid green. If the OBSTACLE AVOID is switched on, but the function can’t be activated, then the icon will be yellow.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The environment requirement such as flight track might change depending on the situation. Only when the icon on the ST16 screen is solid green, it means the OBSTACLE AVOID function is activated.

NOTICE: The realsense can only detect the front obstacles, but can’t detect the lateraland rear obstacles.NOTICE: The speed of the aircraft will be limited with realsense activated.NOTICE: For the most up-to-date information of OBSTACLE AVOID, please visit thecorresponding product page at www.Yuneec.com or contact the nearest Yuneec office or authorized distributor.NOTICE: It is recommended to turn off Obstacle Avoid when landing. If the landing gear islowed down, the aircraft won’t recede in angle mode when the realsense detect the obstacle.

INDOOR POSITIONING SYSTEMIn Angle Mode, the TYPHOON H will automatically activate the IPS or not. When GPS can’t be locked, if the flight control activate the IPS, the Main LED indicator of the aircraft will be solid purple, and the GPS will display being searching on the Remote control, which indicates IPS is activated automatically. At the same time, the aircraft can’t be switched to Smart Mode, Home Mode, Task Mode and OBS AVOID, ONLY remain in Angle Mode even if switching the mode switch. When using IPS to lock the position of the aircraft, TYPHOON H can also hover at its current altitude automatically. The IPS is most suitable for indoor flight or without GPS locked.

NOTICE: When flying in door with IPS activated, the pilot should be cautious and not to fly too fast.

NOTICE: When using IPS without GPS locked, make sure that the indoor illumination is sufficient. The IPS may not be able to position when the aircraft is flying over highly reflective surfaces or over highly repeated surface texture (such as the same color).

HOME MODEWhen the Flight Mode selection switch is in the bottom position, Typhoon H will be in Home (also known as Return to Home) Mode.

In Home Mode the GPS connectivity will fly back Typhoon H in a straight line in the direction of the pilots’ current location, and automatically land within 13-26 ft (4-8m) of the pilot. This can be very helpful for beginning pilots who aren’t quite ready to land Typhoon H themselves. It can also be helpful for pilots that lose orientation during flight. Simply activate Home Mode until Typhoon H automatically moves toward the home position, and once you’ve confirmed orientation switch back to Angle (Pilot) Mode. If Typhoon H ever loses the link with the ST16Ground Station it will automatically enter Home Mode.

NOTICE: If the signal of remote control is lost, Typhoon H will automatically return to home point and hold its position (with a suitable GPS signal/lock) over the home position except for low battery.

NOTICE: If switching on OBS AVOID in Home Mode, the TYPHOON H will avoid the obstacle during home mode. The flight speed (only for RealSense Version) will be limited.

Before switching to Home Mode, press the Setting Calibration button on the right task column. Select Home Altitude and set a height as the desired altitude, and then Home Mode can be activated. The flight path is as follows:

REAL SENSE TURNED OFF

  1. When the flight height of the aircraft is lower than the desired altitude, it will climb to the desired altitude vertically first, then fly back at the current height and descend vertically within 13-26 ft (4-8m) of the pilot until it lands automatically.
  2. When the flight height of the aircraft is higher than the desired altitude, it will fly back at the current height, then descend vertically within 13-26 ft (4-8m) of the pilot until it lands automatically.

REAL SENSE TURNED ON

  1. When the flight height of the aircraft is lower than the desired altitude, the aircraft will climb to the desired altitude, meanwhile, it will fly back to the home point, and then descend vertically within 13-26 ft (4-8m) of the pilot until it lands automatically.
  2. When the flight height of the aircraft is higher than the desired altitude, the aircraft will descend to the desired altitude, meanwhile, it will fly back to the home point, and then descend vertically within 13-26 ft (4-8m) of the pilot until it lands automatically.

NOTICE: The default home altitude is 20m (65.6ft). But after the home altitude is reset, the latest data will be saved as the new default home altitude.

NOTICE: Users can control pitch, roll and yaw directions during descent.

NOTICE: After the Home Mode is activated, the aircraft will point its nose to the homepoint automatically. After the aircraft arrives home point and begins to descend, it will turnits tail pointing to the pilot.

CAUTION: With OBS. AOID switched off, you must be certain there are no obstacles in the‘Return to Home’ flight path otherwise Typhoon H may come into contact with them and crash. While Typhoon H is in Home Mode you will have a limited amount of directional control. To help avoid obstacles we strongly recommend switching to Smart or Angle Mode (then you can switch back to Home Mode).

WARNING: Home Mode only works when Typhoon H has a suitable GPS signal/lock. If Typhoon loses GPS signal/lock it will switch to Angle (Pilot) Mode automatically. This is why we strongly recommend learning to fly in Angle (Pilot) Mode as soon as possible. Otherwise, if you lose GPS signal/lock and are not able to properly control Typhoon H in Angle (Pilot) Mode the aircraft may crash or even ‘fly away’.

 

ADDITIONAL FUNCTIONS:

TASK MODESTap the TASK/CAMERA icon, the background of ‘TASK’ will become orange, then you will enter another interface displaying functions: CCC (Curve Cable Cam), Journey, POI (Point of Interest), ORBIT ME and TAKE OFF.

CCC: (Curve Cable Cam) Curve Cable Cam allows you to create an invisible route for Typhoon H to fly along. Once the pilot sets the point, Typhoon H will fly the set coordinates while remembering the heading.

If the PAN mode of the gimbal camera is switched to Follow and Follow Pan Controllable modes, the gimbal TILT angle will be adjusted as the same as the angle what the gimbal camera is at each waypoint after the pilot set the waypoints automatically and continuously. When the PAN mode is switched to the Global Mode, the PAN and TILT angle can be controlled by aileron and elevator stick.

NOTICE: The direct distance between every two waypoint should be more than 5 meters.

Tap the CCC to enter the Curve Cable Cam function.

In the video recording mode, picture taking (Button A) is accessible. The resolution is set by the video resolution. In this mode, you will capture still photos.

GPS FUNCTIONALITYWhen flying outdoor, Typhoon H requires a suitable GPS signal/lock in order to start the motors and to be flown. please operated in open areas that are free from people, vehicles and other obstructions. In order to acquire a suitable GPS signal/lock it’s critical that the GPS antenna installed in the top of Typhoon H always have a clear view of the sky (100° minimum clearance required).

NOTICE: if the flight control activate the IPS indoor, the Main LED indicator of the aircraft will be solid purple, then you can start the motors.

NOTICE: When using IPS without GPS locked, make sure that the indoor illumination is sufficient. The IPS may not function well when the aircraft is flying over highly reflective surfaces or over highly repeated surface texture (such as the same color).

NOTICE: When flying indoor with IPS, OBS Avoid, Smart Mode and Home Mode are disabled.

WARNING: When using GPS outdoor, do NOT attempt to fly near or between tall buildings/ obstructions, near or under dense vegetation structures. Do NOT attempt to fly in any location known to have poor GPS coverage. Do NOT disable/turn off GPS unless you’re able toproperly control Typhoon H in Angle (Pilot) Mode without GPS or IPS assistance and accept ALL responsibility and liability for crashes or ‘fly aways’. If the Typhoon loses GPS signal/lock while flying high in the sky it can only be flown in Angle (Pilot) Mode, Smart Mode, OBS AVOID and Home Mode, along with their corresponding features, will no longer work. The Main LED Status Indicator will flash purple and the LED Status Indicators below the motors will flash three times per second then will stay off for one (1) second when the Typhoon loses GPS signal/lock (or if GPS has been disabled/ turned of f). If the GPS signal/lock is reacquired (after receiving 5–10 seconds of suitable GPS signal), Smart Mode and Home Mode will work again.

WARNING: Loss of GPS signal/lock may result in a crash or even a ‘fly away’ . IMPORTANT NOTE: Crash damage and ‘fly aways’ are NOT covered under warranty.

NO-FLY ZONESWith a suitable GPS signal/lock it will not be possible to start the motors, takeoff or fly Typhoon H in the ‘No-Fly Zones’ within a 4 mile (6.4 kilometer) radius of most major airports.

NOTICE: If the aircraft flies near the ground and lost GPS signal, the IPS may assist aircraft to fly. After IPS is on, the LED will be solid purple, and OBS AVOID, Smart Mode and Home Mode are disabled.

DISABLING GPSWARNING: Smart Mode and Home Mode, along with their corresponding features, only work when GPS is active and Typhoon H has a suitable GPS signal/lock. If you disable/turn off GPS, Typhoon H can only be flown in Angle (Pilot) Mode. If you cannot properly control the Typhoon in Angle (Pilot) Mode, the aircraft may crash or even ‘fly away’.

NOTICE: IPS will be turned off when GPS is turned off, do not turn off GPS when the pilot needs IPS to fly indoor .

IMPORTANT NOTE: Crash damage and ‘fly aways’ are NOT covered under warranty. We do not typically recommend disabling GPS for any reason, especially if you’re a first-time or low-time pilot. However, if you’re an experienced pilot that’s able to properly control Typhoon H in Angle (Pilot) Mode, you can disable/turn off GPS. Do NOT disable/turn off GPS unless you accept ALL responsibility and liability for crashes or ‘fly aways’.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Every time you turn on Typhoon H, it will default to having GPS active/on (even if you disabled GPS the last time is was powered on).

After the ST16 Ground Station and the CGO3+ are bound successfully, press the GPS Calibration icon, and then tap the GPS Switch to turn off the GPS.

LIPO BATTERY WARNINGS AND USAGE GUIDELINES

WARNING: Lithium Polymer (LiPo) batteries are significantly more volatile than alkaline, NiCd or NiMH batteries. All instructions and warnings must be followed exactly to prevent property damage and/or serious injury as the mishandling of LiPo batteries can result in fire. By handling, charging or using the included LiPo battery you assume all risks associated with LiPo batteries. If you do not agree with these conditions please return the complete product in new, unused condition to the place of purchase immediately.

  • You must always charge the LiPo battery in a safe, well-ventilated area away from flammable materials.
  • Never charge the LiPo battery unattended at any time. When charging the battery you must always remain in constant observation to monitor the chargingprocess and react immediately to any potential problems that may occur.
  • After flying/discharging the LiPo battery you must allow it to cool to ambient/room temperature before recharging.
  • To charge the LiPo battery you must use only the included charger or a suitably compatible LiPo battery charger. Failure to do so may result in a fire causingproperty damage and/or serious injury.
  • If at any time the LiPo battery begins to balloon or swell, discontinue charging or discharging immediately. Quickly and safely disconnect the battery, then place it in a safe, open area away from flammable materials to observe it for at least 15 minutes. Continuing to charge or discharge a battery that has begun to balloon or swell can result in a fire. A battery that has ballooned or swollen even a small amount must be removed from service completely.
  • Do not over-discharge the LiPo battery. Discharging the battery too low can cause damage to the battery resulting in reduced power, flight duration or failure of the battery entirely. LiPo cells should not be discharged to below 3.0V each under load.
  • Store the LiPo battery at room temperature and in a dry area for best results.
  • When charging, transporting or temporarily storing the LiPo battery the temperature range should be from approximately 40–120° F (5–49° C). Do notstore the battery or aircraft in a hot garage, car or direct sunlight. If stored in a hot garage or car the battery can be damaged or even catch fire.
  • Never leave batteries, chargers and power supplies unattended during use.
  • Never attempt to charge low voltage, ballooned/swollen, damaged or wet batteries.
  • Never allow children under 14 years of age to charge batteries.
  • Never charge a battery if any of the wire leads have been damaged or shorted.
  • Never attempt to disassemble the battery, charger or power supply.
  • Never drop batteries, chargers or power supplies.
  • Always inspect the battery, charger and power supply before charging.
  • Always ensure correct polarity before connecting batteries, chargers and power supplies.
  • Always disconnect the battery after charging.
  • Always terminate all processes if the battery, charger or power supply malfunctions.

IMPORTANT NOTE: It’s safer and better for the longevity of the battery to store it only partially charged for any length of time. Storing the battery approximately 50% charged is typically best, however, it will take some careful management of the charge time and the use of a volt meter to achieve this voltage. If you have the equipment and skills to achieve the 50% charge level for storage it is recommended. If not, simply be sure to not store the battery fully charged whenever possible.

In fact, as long as the battery will be stored at approximately room temperature and for no more than a few weeks before the next use, it may be best to store the battery in the discharged state after the last flight (as long as the battery was not over-discharged on the last flight).
