And there's the rub, too many "professionals" buy hobby grade products expecting professional level reliability and imagery results. If those professionals performed their due diligence they would find all the makers of products near this price point rife with issues and customer complaints. The more sold the higher the number of complaints. A professional expecting a high quality tool would not purchase tools priced significantly less than other tools providing very high end product. Regardless of what the advertising states, at under $5k we are still flying toys. Realistically that number should be closer to $10k.
From a broader perspective, little research is given to establishing the experience level of those making complaints, or even establishing if some of those complaining actually own the product. It's very easy to establish that many generating early product complaints did so before some products made it to the retail market. We cannot positively establish the validity of a large number of complaints. Then we have the probability that many posting complaints conveniently omit failures on their part to assure they can maintain warranty status. Lodging complaints and intentionally omitting salient info is a form of lying. We don't know what we don't know. Not saying the H or any other product is without their share of issues, because they all certainly do, but the quantity is seriously open to question.

sorry, but i don't agree with you. professionals don't ony use 10k and up drones.
professionals use the drone that best apply to the work that they are doing.
i have a 30k plus drone, i have 5k plus drone, and i have also phantom's and typhoon grade drones.
last week i was doing a 3d of a castle, and i use a falcom 8 drone, but i also use a phantom because i need the size of the phantom.
i don't use the "h" in places were the falcom is a better option, but i also don't use the "h" or the phanton where the falcom 8 is the better option.
i was one of the firsts to have a "h" back in june. and till the first firmware upgrade, i was very happy with it.
after that, crash.. buy a new one... crash again...
i fly professionally and i can't have drones falling out of the sky.
i think that the "h" is a good option, i like it better than the phantom, but i still see use for the phantom.
have said that, i have buy 2 "h", but at this moment, i won´t fly it commercially... i just can't. there is no confidence on it. as soon as it get back from the assistance, it will get grounded till it have all (or at least most) of the firmware problems solve.
i don't care if is a entry level drone. its something that is flying, and something that is flying just can´t have this kind of problems.
a word of advise to yuneec... you have a good on paper drone, you had till the first upgrade a good drone. but if you can't have the things workout soon... you will be like the karma drone. it´s a good drone, it was a very good option if it came out in january
now, it is just not an option because there is mavic. it is obsolete even before it came out.
you can have the same with the "h", and it will be a shame...
ps. i have 280 log files in the less than 8 weeks that i could fly the typhoon, so...
