Description
Sale is for, one adapter for the three common alternative batteries, possibly others, for the Typhoon H.
You will receive all items shown in the second photo. GPS Tower included is printed with carbon fiber color not black as shown in the photos. (photo showing the carbon fiber color can be seen in the separate listing for the GPS Tower)
The last photo shows 3 versions of this adapter.
Due to changing battery supply markets the available batteries that work with this adapter keep changing.
When a good battery for this adapter is found eventually all the stock becomes sold out. If you would like it to ship with a Deans or XT60 connector please message me your choice of connector if its not XT90, just prior to purchase and go straight to purchasing it without waiting for my reply. (I will reply but it may not be right away) The XT90 XT60, or Deans version will work with all 3 batteries listed here. But you will need a plug conversion adapter to connect any of the other 2 type of battery connectors (XT60 , XT90, or Deans) if you choose a battery that has the same connector as the batteries you chose to use, you are all set. If you choose a battery with another type of connector, simply purchase a ie. XT90 to XT60 adapter found here on eBay from other sellers for around $6. Same for batteries with a Deans etc. connector. If you use a plug adapter get one that uses wires (not a one piece adapter) (about $6 here on eBay)
Again if you just purchase without sending me a message that you want a different connector, I will send you a XT90 connector version.
With this Purchase you will receive….
The Main Battery Adapter fitted with XT90 connector, the battery spacer for the 7500mah battery, and the GPS Tower Adapter with top cover.
This Auction has the XT90 connector. XT90 fits the “Green Battery” (described below)
The main adapter will fit any of the 3 batteries by adding an adapter plug. Green, Orange 6400mah, and Orange 7500mah with the included spacer.
You will not need a adapter for the Green 8000mah Battery.
Install the included GPS adapter before using any alternative battery. This is a must do. Without it your compass could get confused and you will have a wild ride landing it or worse a crash.
The only known battery that you would not need to install the GPS adapter is the 6400mah battery that is currently out of stock.
I will not be able to test without the adapter anymore since i already have the adapter installed an I also don’t want to go without it.
Anyway the once you have the GPS adapter installed you will never want to go back to waiting for a GPS lock (without it) ever again.

My current battery recomendation as of 8/7/2019. (Sold Out Currently)
Search here on eBay
6300mah 14.8v LiPo (sort results to lowest price first)
Get this battery $36.99 includes free shipping. (available from many sellers)
This is actually the best battery for this battery adapter.
The adapter is future proof since there are many batteries it will work with.
But I still recommend this Orange hard shell 6300mah as the best battery.
You will also find a few listings specifically stating “6300mah 14.8v Typhoon H” and are selling 2 for $75.
These listings show better photos of the actual battery you will receive. They are ZOP Power hard shell batteries with T- plug Deans connector ends on them.
The “Green” 8000mah battery shown in the photos in this listing can be bought here on eBay for 69.95 with free shipping. (Sold Out Currently)
With the Orange Batteries you can get 6300mah batteries for $36.99 here on eBay, that is half the price as a stock 5400mah battery. (Sold Out Currently)
A “Orange 7500mah battery” is selling at 2 for $86.64 on BangGood.com. This battery is narrower than the other batteries mentioned and will need the included spacer used with it so it will lock into the adapter the same as the other batteries. (Still plenty of stock available)

Also found here on eBay search “HobbyStar 6000mAh 4S 15.2V HIGH-VOLTAGE HV 100C Hardcase LiPo Battery XT90″
It is $89.
Anyway I have purchased this battery and it fits perfectly but…… I have not had the time or good weather to test it.
So just a FYI for in the future once I have had a chance to test it. it looks like you could pick one up for $75.
Or if you are brave you could just give it a shot and test it yourself.
If you did test it, be sure you have first installed the GPS Tower adapter, this is important have this installed for some alternative batteries.

They also have another one “HobbyStar 8000mAh 15.2V, 4S HV 100C Hardcase LiPo Battery” Available eBay and Amazon $129 and with above website and coupon code $114
I can only say this 8000mah battery should fit since it list same dimensions as the 6000mah LiHv and again with this 8000mah battery I haven’t yet purchased it so I haven’t tested it also.
If someone does test one of these 2 newer battery types and messages me the results…. I will update here with what I hear.

The Orange 6300mah battery is the exact same weight as the stock 5400mah battery, since it has the same magnetic signature you do not need to install the included GPS MOD to use this battery. The 7500mah battery is lighter than the stock battery and the 8000mah battery is heavier than the stock battery these 2 have a different magnetic signature and do have issues with an error stating compass not calibrated and land and re calibrate. These issues are solved by installing the included GPS Tower MOD. Keep in mind a new top cover from VertigoDrones is 8.99 plus 6.99 shipping, so if you install the GPS Mod and later want to remove it you could just replace your top cover with a new one for cheap. Watch the YouTube video to see how to install this GPS tower adapter.
If you send me your run time results,I will update here for all of our fellow fliers.
First results I have gotten…
With “Green Battery” 8000mah, long distance flight (not hover in place) over a mile away and back, of 26 minutes landed and still hadn’t received a low battery warning.
With “Orange Battery” 6300mah general flight (not hover in place) one flight 22 minutes and a second flight of 25 minutes.
With “Orange 7500mah Battery” will post results when I get some.
With “Orange 7500mah Battery” will post results when I get some.
This adapter may also work with other batteries. “See dimensions photo” Be sure it will not be to tall or wide if you want to try a 4th choice of battery besides the 3 “Green or Orange Batteries” that have been tested.
Basically if it fits in the hole it will probably work.
Basically, with the adapter inserted it only uses 3mm of space on one side. So, simply subtract 3mm from the width of a stock battery and you will know the maximum width of a battery that will work with this battery. 50mm high by 48.5mm wide will be the maximum dimensions and matching one of these numbers will cause a tight fit making it difficult to insert and remove the battery, but at least it will still work. The “Orange Battery” is a few mm below these maximum sizes and it creates the ideal insert and remove feel.
Has a fixed XT90 connector for connecting the “Green Battery” from here simply use a XT90 to Deans or to, XT60 etc. Adapter to connect to other batteries. To remove the orange battery you can just pull the battery out and leave the adapter in the drone. To remove the green battery it is easier to pull out the battery and the adapter at the same time, it helps you get a better grip since the green battery is a very tight fit.
The “Orange Battery” is 6300mah 14.8v be sure you match up exactly to the battery shown in the photos in this listing.(Sold Out Currently)
The “Green Battery” is 8000mah 14.8v selling for $69 here on eBay right now. Search “8000mah 14.8v LiPo” It should get you nearly the same flight time as the 8050mah 14.8v that is selling for $125.(Sold Out Currently)
Recently tested “Orange 7500mah Battery” Ordered from Banggood.com 2 for $86.46 including shipping.
Works very good, is lighter than the other 2 batteries and smaller, requires the included spacer to use.
Search Banggood.com ….. ZOP Power 14.8v 7500mah 35C Lipo Battery XT60 Plug for RC Quadcopter Car (Still plenty of stock available)
3D printed battery adapter tray, with wiring and connectors to fit Yuneec Typhoon H. Plus adapter to move GPS sensor higher.
You will get the adapter tray and the connector cord, and GPS re position mod, and you will need to buy the batteries separately.
Batteries not included. Lol
Save money and upgrade to higher capacity batteries at the same time.
Must use these batteries since the adapter is custom fit for them. Be sure the batteries you buy match the photos in this listing. Or research the sizes that will fit and experiment and try other battery options with this adapter.
All other adapters currently available from other sellers are set up to place the battery with the wiring forward, which causes the battery to stick out farther back, putting the drone off balance, causing a rear heavy condition.
The drawback to this new version is having the wires on the outside, but perfect balance is maintained since the battery can now be pushed all the way inside the drone. Now, it’s very convent since now the adapter stays inside the drone while changing the batteries. Just disconnect cord, push button, pull out battery. Push next battery in, and connect cord. Battery will lock in automatically.
A stock Typhoon H had issues with GPS signal due to interference from its own electronics. The GPS Tower adapter include here will raise you GPS sensor up out of the interference, making your Typhoon H locate satellites faster, and eliminate the issues with remote stating it has error with compass, please land and calibrate compass.
Will fit in case with GPS adapter in place. will not need to remove adapter to put drone into backpack.
See the GPS installation video for the GPS adapter on YouTube.

Don’t buy Chinese batteries…. Made in China is OK just not Shipped from China. The tested 7500mah from BanGood are good though.
If needed, return shipping from USA to China is around $100
Soooooooo…. I think you can see the problem if they send you a dud battery.
I pride myself for fast delivery. I will get your package to the counter of USPS and have them scan it ASAP. You will be able to see your tracking updated to “in USPS possession” right away. I am also Centrally located in the USA and near their major shipping hub.
If paid by 9am (sometimes up until 4pm but not always) Central Time, I will get it to the post office by 4:30pm and your order will be in USPS sorting and transit that same day.
I will be closed for any shipping until December 28th.
Please understand this if you place your order before than.
Please after you receive your package rate my shipping speed based on this understanding. (best would if you state in your comments “lightning fast delivery” LOL)
Your package will most likely not start moving (in USPS tracking) until Monday December 30th. I have set the handling time to 10 Business Days so I will not get any shipping time dings from eBay, but your package will ship much sooner than the date you will be given during checkout.
Happy Holiday to all the Drone, Photography, and Home Built Aircraft Builders out there.
