IMPORTANT NOTE

This Quick Start Guide is NOT intended to replace 

the content included in the instructon manual. You 

should read through the instructon manual 

completely before proceeding.

ASSEMBLY 

Installing the Motor Arms 

Fold the motor arms upwards 

and secure them using the 

cover knurled nut located 

on the motor arms.

NOTE: Don’t over tghten 

the nuts, It may cause 

deformaton of the arms.

Installing the Landing Gear

Insert the landing gear tube 

into the base which has 

already been connected to 

the H920. Secure the screw 

on both sides of base. 

NOTE: Don’t over tghten the nuts, it may cause 

deformaton of the landing gear.

INSTALLING THE FLIGHT BATTERIES

Afer the flight batery has been fully charged, it’s 

ready to be installed in the TORNADO H920:

STEP 1) Open the batery compartment flap with 

the status LED mounted on it by carefully pulling 

the top edge of the flap.

STEP 2) With the side of the batery cartridge that 

has the ‘UP’ arrow marking oriented upward, hold 

the handle and slide the batery into the batery 

compartment untl you feel the connector make a 

positve connecton.

POWERING ON/OFF 

NOTE: ALWAYS turn on the ST24 and allow it to 

boot up BEFORE turning on the TORNADO H920 

(and ALWAYS turn off the TORNADO H920 

BEFORE turning off the ST24 ). 

Retractng and Lowering the Retractable Landing 

Gear

The TORNADO H920’s landing gear is retrqactable 

to keep it out of frame when a camera is atached. 

You can retract it by switching up the Landing Gear 

Switch on the top right side of ST24. Make sure to 

flip down the switch when landing.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Always put down the landing 

gear before landing when the flight height is no less 

than 3m (10 feet) by switching down the Landing 

Gear Switch.

STARTING/STOPPING THE MOTORS

Step back approximately 26 feet (8 meters) behind 

the TORNADO H920. Press and hold the 

START/STOP buton for about 3 seconds to start, 

and about 2 seconds to stop the motors.

CONTROL RATE SLIDER 

Set the overall climb/descend and directonal 

control rates. Use the turtle positon for the lowest 

control rates (best for first-tme pilots and when 

flying between 5000 feet and 8000 feet Above 

Mean Sea Level). Use the rabbit positon for the 

highest control rates (best for experienced pilots 

and only when flying below 5000 feet AMSL.

FLIGHT MODES

The ST24 is equipped with 3 different flight modes 

which can be selected using the mode switch in the 

top right corner above the right joystck.

SMART MODE

If the mode switch ‘I’ (S4) is fully up, then the H920 

is in Smart Mode.

Although we recommend learning how to fly as fast 

as possible in Angle Mode, Smart Mode is the best 

choice for inexperienced pilots when test flying.

In Smart Mode, the H920 always flies in the 

directon in which the right joystck is moved by the 

pilot, regardless of the directon in which the nose is 

pointng. So if you move the stck to the right, the 

H920 will also move to the right regardless of the 

ANGLE MODE

If the Mode switch ‘I’ (S4) is in the centre positon, 

then the H920 is in Angle Mode. Angle Mode is 

designed for pilots with a litle experience (those 

who have already mastered Smart Mode), because 

in this mode the H920 moves in line with the 

joystck, in the directon in which the nose is 

pointed. So, if you move the right stck to the lef, 

the H920 will tlt to the lef and thus move to the 

lef. That is assuming that the nose is pointng away 

from you. If the nose is pointng towards you, the 

H920 will move to the right from your point of view.

CAMERA CONTROLS (SINGLE MODE)

INSTALLING THE GB603 GIMBAL AND 

CAMERA

Step 1) Install the Fastening Block to the Camera

BINDING 

The TORNADO H920 and ST24 have already been 

bound before leaving producton, so there is no 

need to bind the aircraf to the ST24 if no gimbal is used.

If the GB603 gimbal is to be atached to the aircraf, 

both the GB603 and TORNADO H920 need to be 

bound.

FLIGHT CONTROLS

To takeoff, slowly raise the lef-hand stck to 

slightly above the center positon. the TORNADO 

H920 will takeoff and climb slowly (or raise the stck 

further untl it does). Allow the stck to return to the 

center positon when the TORNADO H920 reaches 

the desired alttude.

PLACEMENT BEFORE TAKEOFF 

STEP 3) Connect the flight batery to the relevant 

socket above the respectve batery on the H920 

using the EC3 blue, polarity-protected connector.

NOTE: The white socket is for batery charging, do not 

connect it to any port when installing the bateries. If you 

do not install the batery in the correct orientaton it 

will not be possible to make a positve connecton.

WARNING: Do not force the batery in to make the 

connecton. It should be smooth with litle 

restricton. If it feels tght remove the batery check 

the connector pins for alignment, and try again. 

Forcing the batery in can damage the connector 

and potentally cause the TYPHOON to loose 

power in flight.

STEP 4) Close the batery door by pushing the area 

at the top to engage the latch/lock.

Installing the Propellers

Always ensure sufficient clearance. The rotors of 

the YUNEEC the TORNADO H920 are made of 

high-strength carbon, the motors are extremely 

powerful, meaning that if the device is misused 

there is a risk of material damage, serious injury and 

even fatal injury. The turning propellers are 

perfectly capable of causing deep cut wounds. 

Mount the propellers on the motors and note the pointers ‘A’ and ‘B’ given on the motor arms. This 

distncton between ‘A’ and ‘B’ refers to the rotaton 

directon of the motors. The rotaton directon of 

the motors must match the rotaton directon of the 

propellers. Mount propeller ‘A’ on motor ‘A’ and 

propeller ‘B’ on motor ‘B’ and use the screws and 

screwdriver enclosed to carefully screw in the 

propellers. 

IMPORTANT NOTE: It is NOT possible to install a 

propeller marked with ‘A’ on a motor marked with 

‘B’. The threads go in different directons for the ‘A’ 

and ‘B’ motors/propellers.

CHARGING THE LIPO FLIGHT BATTERY

Connectng to the power source : the A10 Dual 

Balance Charger comes with built in switching 

power supply. You can connect the AC power cord 

directly to the main AC socket (100 - 240V AC).

NOTE: The charging power in AC mode is 200W 

totally for Channel A and Channel B.

Charging

BATT/PROGRAM Select: Press INC and DEC to go 

through all the programs and press START/ENTER 

to enter LiPo BATT Program.

Mode Select: Press INC and DEC to go through all 

CAUTION: Do not calibrate the compass in parking 

garages, close to buildings or near roads with a 

metal core. For optmum performance, only 

calibrate the H920 in open spaces, far away from 

electricity lines and other metal structures or 

concrete buildings.

Step 1: Place the H920 horizontally, point it with its 

nose towards the north

Step 1: Lif the H920 horizontally, point it with its 

nose towards the north and hold it in this positon 

for 4 seconds, the LED status indicators automat- cally start to quickly flash red-green-blue. Slowly 

turn the H920 forward and around 360° (pitch axis) 

untl it is lying flat again.

Step 2: Turn the H920 45° to the lef and then turn 

it forward 360° again untl it is lying flat in your 

hands again.

Step 3: Turn the H920 45° to the lef and then turn 

it forward 360° again untl it is lying flat in your 

hands again.

Cauton: Steps 1 to 5 should be completed within a 

tme span of 30 seconds in order to achieve 

successful calibraton.

Step 6: Place the H920 on the ground and wait a 

few seconds.

If the calibraton has been successful, the LED 

status indicator lights up green contnuously and 

the flight controller restarts, you will recognise this 

when you hear the acknowledgement tone, the 

same one you hear when you switch the system on.

IMPORTANT NOTE: If calibraton has failed, the 

LED status indicator lights up red contnuously and 

you must be repeat the calibraton process. If the 

calibraton should contnue to fail, either the site of 

calibraton is unsuitable or the compass is defectve. 

Refer to your Yuneec service centre.

Step 4: Turn the H920 45° to the lef and then turn 

it forward 360° again untl it is lying flat in your 

hands again.

Step 5: Turn the H920 45° to the lef and then turn 

it forward 360° again untl it is lying flat in your 

hands again. (Bow now points SOUTH)

Hold rudder stck lef while at the same tme 

toggling the mode switch more than 4 tmes. If 

successful, ST24 will indicate compass calibraton 

has started.

NOTE: The AC plug type will vary depending on the 

region in which the product was imported/pur- chased (AU = Australian; EU = European; UK =

United Kingdom; US = United States).

CHARGING THE ST24’S LI-ION BATTERY

You can charge the Li-ion batery installed in the 

ST24 with the A10 Dual Balance Charger. While the 

ST24 is powered off connect the cable to the USB 

adapter/charger, then plug it into the 5V/2.1A USB 

connector/charging port. The charging icon on the 

monitor of the ST24 shows the current charging 

progress of the transmiter batery and indicates 

that the batery is charging. It will take approximately 

3 to 4 hours to charge a fully discharged (not 

over-discharged) batery.

NOTICE: In order to calibrate the compass in the YUNNEC H920 the TORNADO H920, we strongly 

recommend doing this with someone else because 

this is a 2-man job given the dimensions of the H920.

Be sure to place the TORNADO H920 on a level 

and stable surface before powering ON the 

Controller and Aircraf.

Step back approximately 26 f (8 m) behind the TORNADO H920

Never atempt to operate TORNADO H920 nearby 

tall buildings/obstructons that do not offer a clear 

view of the sky (a minimum clearance of 100°).

Place the TORNADO H920 on a level and stable 

surface then slide the switch to the ‘ON’ positon. 

DO NOT TOUCH OR MOVE THE TORNADO 

H920 UNTIL THE INITIALIZATION PROCESS IS 

COMPLETE. The main LED status indicator will 

glow solid green (Smart Mode) or solid purple 

(Angle/Pilot Mode) when the initalizaton is 

complete (and the TORNADO H920 GPS is locked).

WARNING: Smart Mode only works if the H920 

has an adequate GPS signal. If you lif off in Smart 

Mode and the H920 loses its GPS signal, then it will 

switch automatcally to Angle Mode. That is why 

we explicitly recommend familiarising yourself with 

flying in Angle Mode as soon as possible. 

Otherwise, when the GPS signal is lost and you are 

not in positon to fly in Angle Mode, then there is a 

possibility that you may cause a crash or that the 

H920 will fly away uncontrolled.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Accidental damage and “fly 

aways” are not covered by the guarantee.

HOME MODE

In Home Mode the GPS connectvity will fly back 

the TORNADO H920 in a straight line in the 

directon of the pilots’ current locaton, and 

automatcally land within 13-26 f (4-8m) of the 

pilot. This can be very helpful for first-tme pilots 

who aren’t quite ready to land the TORNADO 

H920 themselves. It can also be helpful for pilots 

that lose orientaton during flight; simply actvate 

Home Mode untl the TORNADO H920 automatcally moves toward the home positon, and once 

you’ve confirmed orientaton switch back to Angle 

(Pilot) Mode. And if the TORNADO H920 ever 

loses the link with the ST10+ it will automatcally 

enter Home Mode. 

When Home Mode is actvated the TORNADO 

H920 will respond as follows:

A) When flying higher than 33 feet (10 meters) the 

TORNADO H920 will maintain the current 

alttude, fly back to the home point, or actve home 

point if the ST10+ has enough satellites for Follow 

Extra Angle Mode features:

POSITION FREELY AND RETAIN ALTITUDE

The H920 will not hold its positon automatcally

 (if there is sufficient GPS signal) but it will retain the 

alttude level if the lef stck is in the middle positon.

WARNING: If you have not mastered the H920 in 

Angle Mode, accidents or “fly aways” may result.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Accidental damage and “fly 

aways” are not covered by the guarantee.

Step 1) Power on ST24, press to go to the main

There is a gimbal mode switch on ST24---S2. When 

the switch positon is up, the gimbal/gimbal camera 

is in Follow Mode. The yaw control of the 

gimbal/camera is now disabled. The gimbal/camera 

will adjust its yaw directon according to the 

aircraf’s movements. 

When the switch positon is down, the gimbal/gimbal camera is in Global Mode. The Gimbal Yaw 

control knob (K1) is now actvated. When the user 

rotates the knob in the right directon, the 

gimbal/gimbal camera will rotate to the right side, 

And vice versa. 

Step 2) Place the Camera Mount with lens frame 

downward, and fit the GH4 camera with its lens 

downward.

Connect the GB603 gimbal to the gimbal-/camera 

mount on the H920 by turning the knurled nuts in a 

clockwise directon, tghten them untl they feel 

secure.

NOTICE: Make sure the Camera Batery and SD 

card have been installed!

Step 3) Secure the screw on the top and at the 

botom of the frame to fix the camera on the 

Camera Mount.

Step 4) Insert the HDMI cable in the corresponding 

port on the camera (the right side of GH4) afer plug 

plug the Shuter cable in the port at the top lef side 

of the camera through the frame.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Make sure the white plug 

connected to the port of LK58, and the black one is 

connected to the camera).

B) When flying lower than 33 feet (10 meters) the 

TORNADO H920 will climb to 33 feet (10 meters) 

while flying back to the home point, or actve home 

positon, then will descend vertcally untl it lands.

CAUTION: You must be certain there are no 

obstacles in the ‘Return to Home’ flight path 

otherwise the TORNADO H920 may come into 

contact with them and crash. 

CAUTION:While the TORNADO H920 is in Home 

Mode you will have a limited amount of directonal 

control. To help avoid obstacles we strongly 

recommend to switch to Smart or Angle Mode 

(then you can switch back to Home Mode).

WARNING: Home Mode only works when the 

TORNADO H920 has a suitable GPS signal/lock. If 

the TORNADO H920 loses GPS signal/lock it will 

switch to Angle (Pilot) Mode automatcally. 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 the TORNADO H920 in Angle (Pilot) Mode 

the aircraf may crash or even ‘fly away’.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Crash damage and ‘fly aways’ 

are NOT covered under warranty.

Take your tme learning how the TORNADO H920 

responds to various control inputs while flying. In 

Smart Mode the TORNADO H920 will always 

move in the directon the right-hand control stck is 

pushed relatve to the pilot and no mater which 

way the front/nose is pointed. In Angle (Pilot) Mode 

the TORNADO H920 will move in the directon the 

control stck is pushed relatve to the front/nose of 

the aircraf (and the ‘angle’ of movement is 

determined by how far you push the stck away 

from the center positon). Check the corresponding 

sectons of this instructon manual for more 

informaton on Smart Mode and Angle (Pilot) Mode.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The joystck with the two 

control stcks respond proportonately, that means 

that the further you move the control stck from the 

centred restng point in the middle in one directon, 

the stronger the response and the faster the change 

in course.

IMPORTANT NOTE: The maximum height is 

restricted to 125m above the ground in Smart 

Mode and 122m (400 f.) in Angle Mode. If at any 

tme during flight you feel like the TORNADO 

H920 is drifing out of/beyond your control, simply 

release both control stcks. the TORNADO H920 

will automatcally self-level and will even hold its 

positon (with a suitable GPS signal /lock) when 

both control stcks are centered. You can also 

actvate Home Mode so the TORNADO H920 

automatcally flies itself back to the home point and 

lands.

Landing

Positon the TORNADO H920 above the area 

where you would like to land. Slowly lower the 

lef-hand stck to below the center positon. the 

TORNADO H920 will descend slowly and land. 

Afer the TORNADO H920 lands, press and hold 

the START/STOP buton for approximately two (2) 

seconds to stop the motors.
