Yuneec H850 RTK

Name: Yuneec H850 RTK
Brand: Yuneec

Yuneec announced the H850 RTK in July 2022, and DroneDJ pegged it as a cheaper rival to DJI's M300 RTK. It's now Yuneec's flagship. It's an 850 mm hexacopter that flies on two batteries, carries up to 3 kg, and Yuneec rates it at an hour in the air without a payload. Two RTK antennas give centimeter positioning even if one fails, and it logs raw GNSS data for post-processing. It lands safely on five motors. Yuneec pitches it for inspection, surveying, public safety and fawn rescue, and it takes LiDAR, survey and multi-lens cameras. Every camera made for the H520E fits too, which helps if you already own one.

Before you fly

The rules, the lock and what it pairs with

Takeoff weight: 5,800 g, register it

Remote IDNeeds a Remote ID module: Yuneec gives the H850 Remote ID through an add-on Dronetag module in a dedicated slot, and no Yuneec drone is on the FAA's built-in list. Make sure the module comes with it or fly at a FRIA. At 5.8 kg it must be registered, and Part 107 work needs registration and Remote ID.
Account lock: Yuneec doesn't document an owner lock and says flight data stays with you rather than on outside servers. The drone pairs with its T-One controller.
Controller: The T-One: Android, 7-inch 1,000-nit screen, about 8 hours per charge, running DataPilot 2.0. It should come with the drone.
App and firmware: Yuneec DataPilot 2.0 on the T-One. The H850 is Yuneec's current flagship, sold and repaired through Yuneec and its partners.

Should come with it

The T-One controller
Both flight batteries (it flies on two) and spares
The H850 Power Charging Case
The Dronetag Remote ID module
Which payload is included

Check the listing photos against this list, and ask the seller about anything you can’t see. A missing piece should come off the price.

What to check

Yuneec hasn't published a fault list for the H850. Check what wears on any hexacopter: propellers, prop mounts and batteries.

01Batteries: Check the photos for two flight batteries at least, since it flies on a pair. They should be flat with no swelling.
02Remote ID module: Ask whether the Dronetag module is included. Without it you'll need to buy one to fly outside a FRIA.
03Controller: Check the photos for the T-One controller powered on. It should boot into DataPilot 2.0.
04RTK fix: Ask for a screenshot showing an RTK fix. A fixed solution means both antennas and the receiver work.
05Payload: Check which payload is listed and ask for a sample image. The payload decides what the drone can do for you.
06Six motors: Ask for a video of all six motors starting. They should spin up together and sound even.
