I have been watching this forum for weeks, due to using up all may patience with DJI, Their support sux, their equipment, unbeatable. I don't make that statement, lightly..
I have been looking for replacements for all of my flying cameras, in an attempt to leave DJI in the rear view mirror. I really would LOVE to forget them.
Having said that, and moving Yuneec, ANYTHING, Typhoon, Tornado, to the consideration level for purchase to replace a Mavic Pro, Phantom 4 pro V2.0. as it is time to move up.
Due diligence. Extensive.
No alternative, that makes sense, either technically, or monetarily.
Some of the biggest kudos go to posters on this web site, is to someone who flew a Yuneec product more than just a few 100 meters from takeoff points without crashing or falling from the sky.
No bickering, though, as on other websites, everyone seems to be in the "group hug" mode as if comforting each other and assuring themselves that they bought the right model. A lot better and friendlier, for sure.
No comfort, for what I was looking for, hoping to find the middle ground between happy customer support consumers and technically capable flying camera platforms.
Final judgement: The old "cake and eat it, too" concept, you just can't do it in the DJI HUGELY dominated UAV market. They lead the market for a good reason. It sure as **** is not customer service.
Yuneec, I thought last year was showing promise to compete, but it seems to be going nowhere fast, stumble and struggle to keep up. Release a new and improved "pro plus" with nothing more than new problems along with some they did not fix in the last version. Learning all this, just reading what people on this forum write about.
True diehards for the Yuneec products exist in good numbers. Good enough, I hope to support Yuneec until they reach the DJI technical level. I am interested in Yuneec, just not convinced that I can as a photographer in my business, support them at this time.
