Product Description
The newest drone in Yuneec’s Typhoon family, the Typhoon H RTF hexacopter comes with everything you need to fly right out of the box. The drone is controlled using an Android-based ST16 pro controller with an integrated 7-inch touchscreen display Read More
My understanding is that the controller for this drone uses a very old version of Android (4.2?) with no way to upgrade its OS. It's painfully slow and heavy!
OK, here's my question: What the heck does RTF mean? Does it stand for something? If you look at the Yuneec website, there is no model with that designation. And none of the descriptions here or on Amazon (which are the only two places where I can find the RTF even mentioned) give any indication of what it means. Is there some difference between the H Pro and the H RTF Pro? If so, what?
GillilandThis is a really confusing acronym ... it took me a while to figure it out - Ready to Fly - nothing else. Just another packaging term - that's all
Sometimes I get frustrated by Massdrop deals as well, but this one doesn't look bad. The closest similar bundle on Amazon sells for $849, and that doesn't include the extra battery. That $849 bundle on Amazon is comparable to the $700 "Command bundle" here. So Massdrop is at least $150 cheaper than Amazon/Beach Camera on this package.
Yes, there are several offerings on Amazon for $749, but none of them include any of the extra items included here.
well, ok.. amazon prime has it for $749 which means i can have it friday IF i want another drone..
i was reading too fast, please ignore the rest of my remarks..
i already have a phantom 3 i don't use much, the mavic pro i got from here (i think) and that silly toy i got from here for $105 so another drone won't be in my future.. i still have a dji thing i got from craigslist with a bunch of parts and a gopro camera and a fancy controller and more which i have never used.. (craigslist here i come)..
SO, guys, while you have some deals from time to time i'm not sure that THIS is one of them..
[EDIT] apparently this is a deal for those who want a hexacopter..
cordially,
bill
If you are looking for a good deal on this drone. I would not be looking at Amazon. I just bought this drone for $475. Just didn't have FPV goggles on the bundle. No biggie to me.
