When the Yuneec Typhoon H showed up at CES 2016 it stood out from the horde of other flying machines at the gigantic electronics show (the Ehang 184 being a notable exception).
The Yuneec Typhoon H offers features that are above its price, such as a 360-degree rotating 4K camera, retractable landing gear and the option to control the drone and camera separately. It has sonar-based object detection, but is also available with...
The hexacopter is not sturdy, especially its flimsy camera mount. Controller size and layout are not the most user-friendly. Not as user-friendly as similarly priced models.
The Yuneec Typhoon H is a well-equipped prosumer camera drone, but its build quality and lackluster user experience keep it off our short list.

A drone shows us the joy of six (rotor blades)
Stable in windy conditions ; Good quality footage and photos ; Supports dual-operator controls ; Retractable landing gear
Battery takes far too long to recharge ; Annoying Wi-Fi pairing issues
Another fantastic camera drone hits the market – albeit one that’s held slightly back by its snail-liking charging times

Drone wars, they are upon us.
Great Design ; Retractable landing gear ; Lots of intelligence
Confusing remote and software interface
This is a great drone that could use some usability improvements.

Stable, reliable flight ; 360-degree camera ; Dedicated touchscreen controller ; Intuitive autonomous flight modes ; Great bang for your buck
Rotor support hinges feel flimsy ; Long battery recharge times
After logging nearly a dozen hours of flight time with this drone, and flying it alongside its two biggest competitors (the and ), we’re confident in saying that the Typhoon H is the best drone we’ve flown thus far. It’s definitely not perfect, and...

How do you beat DJI at the quadcopter game? You build a hexacopter.

The Typhoon H has a lot to offer the aerial movie maker, taking great quality video that is smooth and has plenty of detail. Video was superior to that shot with the Phantom 4: even in a slight wind, the Typhoon shot sharp, clean footage that belied...
Easy to use controller and big, bright video preview ; Offers plenty of speed and maneuverability ; Excellent video and photo quality ; 360-degree camera pan offers more flexible shooting
Collision avoidance only detects objects right in front ; Slight lag in video preview
The Typhoon H is an innovative, easy-to-fly drone that offers a lot of features for the serious drone video maker.
