    Hubsan H501S Quad GPS signal strength on TX

    Hi everyone. A quick question if I may for anyone who flies a Hubsan H501S. Ever since I have had my quad, my TX has never picked up more than 5 GPS satellites, whilst the quad sitting alongside it regularly receives 11 GPS satellites. The directions say you shouldnt fly the drone without a...

    Bought my first proper Drone

    Well my range extender has now arrived so I need to take my TX apart and see if it helps as I was out again today and still couldnt get more than 5 GPS satellites on my TX whilst getting 11 on my quad. I'm hoping the new aerials will help. On the positive side I flew mine today on a standard...

    Yes, I'm hoping that adding the range extender will help keep the connection between the TX and my H501S. I've had a few occasions where the screen goes blank and it seems to lose connection, only for 2 or 3 seconds but enough to give a scare when you are near trees or buildings and suddenly you...

    Morpilot Lipo dual port balanced charger

    Just for info although it could have just been a bad experience for me. I bought a pair of Morpilot 7.4V 2700mAh 10C 20Wh batteries and balance charger from Amazon (link below) designed for my Hubsan H510S but during the first charge the balance charger started to spark and smoke which was a bit...

    Will my TX battery support 40 minutes of flight time?

    That's what I'm hoping for. Obviously I'll test it at capacity next week, full FPV and recording and lots of speed so I can get the "worst case" usage and will post the results

    Will my TX battery support 40 minutes of flight time?

    Hiya, I've bought one extra TX li-po battery and two extra quad batteries. I have found that whenmy quad has exhausted its original battery, the TX still has around 50% power so I'm working on teh assumption that I will get 2 flights from one TX li-po battery but I've not put this to the test...

    Bought my first proper Drone

    It really is amazing. I much prefer the Li-po battery in the TX as the previous version apparently just used normal AA batteries. My new batteres arrived today, 2 x drone batteries and a double balance charger so I can charge the TX battery and drone battery together. I am awaiting a second TX...

    Looking for drone with specific features

    Ahh okay, I see, I'm not sure about Chromebook but I know for a Windows 10 machine, I often use their standard Movie Maker application to edit my recorded drone footage. However, that said I have just checked my drone SD card and found that the recordings are .mp4 as standard and not AVI on my...

    You can just use something like Windows Movie Maker to convert them to .MP4

    Hubsan x4 FPV Desire

    I had a similar issue with mine. It will flash record then show a timer counting up in seconds to show how long it has been recording. Hubsan support helped me as my SanDisk 32GB SD card wasnt formatted correctly. You must not put anything in the volume label and must set the unit allocation to...

    Bought my first proper Drone

    Hello all. I have just bought a Hubsan H501S-S. I thought it was an H501S but have since found out it's an S-S which I believe is better but who knows. What can I say. I love it. Lots of replacement Li-Po batteries on order already plus a range extender kit. Slowly but surely I have been...
