520 complaint list?

[Brahma]

Hi guys-

I'm shopping for another drone to join my Typhoon H480 Pro. I see posts in here flaming the 520, but it's hard to read through all the posts and rants to come up with a concise list on what all the complaints actually are.

Can someone please take the time to make a concise bullet-list of actual problems? I think it would be helpful for all of us...

Thanks-

1 h520 flight in circle with camera pointed on fixed item of interest set by data pilot software or h520 fly in circle but able to manual set the gimbal control to point the camera right at the object when in flight hard to do must get the timing right.
2 h520 able to fly on a curve projection from data pilot.
3 smooth video recording using waypoint h without jerk motion stop and turn then go to next way point
4 smooth out stops after moving the aircraft tends to jerk at the end.
5 should have been fixed but mention anyway battery issue of capacity list on controller effecting flight time of the h520. This seems to be fixed with firmware v1.3 atleast for me on manual bind no camera attached.
6 lack of parts for repair by the end user or even normal usage mainly for now the st16s spare batteries for the USA side. That I was told will be fixed soon about 1 to 2 weeks toward end march.
7 lack of communication to h520 users by yuneec
8 unable to get h480 rs module ported over to the h520 but leaving the cable attached but removing the cable make the craft unstable. I tried it and it renders the craft not air worthy.
9 must have a sd card in the camera to do calibrations will fail to when one is not inserted in camera. and e90 camera to do firmware updates mandatory. e50 and cgoet not doable.
10 as for part to do for routine maintenance mostly going to be out of luck for the USA and Canada side of the world must send units to repair depots to preform them. Only one I know of terrestrial imaging actually works on h520s

other than that it one heck smooth machine in manual bind flies solid. Despite not able to do compass and acceleration calibrations due to my e90 camera failed with broken wirers at the slip ring.
