I purchased a Yuneec Breeze a while back from Bestbuy. I believe I payed $399 at the time. I returned it when I discovered it that it was a “Selphie drone” and hence when being used going away from the pilot, left became right and so on. Overall, I really liked the drone. But was disappointed in that aspect. I even bought a full replacement drone body (compete) just in case of the chance I might have a bad crash. I still have the body still sealed so if anyone wants a pristine Breeze body... [email protected]). I also have two DJI Phantom 2 (that sadly I only use for practicing flying now as they are no longer supported by DJI) , a DJI Mavic Pro, two Sky Viper toy drones and one DJI Spark.
After some thought I purchased a brand new Yuneec Breeze bundled with a controller at Walmart yesterday for only $150, INMO an unbelievable price for such a capable drone. I was thrilled all the way home until I got online only to discover that Yuneec has removed the software (Breeze Cam) from the App Store. WTH? Even ca manufacturers that discontinue a vehicle keep parts for 5 years to support customers who bought their product. Personally, I see this as a slap in the face to anyone who has ever purchased a product made by Yuneec and certainly shows their complete lack of support for and customer base they may have..Yes, I realize they now=have something called a “Mantis Q” obviously to place the Breeze but even so unless the mantis software for the iPhone supports the Breeze, which I can pretty much guarantee it doesnt, is spitting in the face of me and all of you as well. This is a cowardly, inxcusable way of treating customers largely because the products still being sold in stores and online so in effect they are still selling completely unsuasable drones I guess in hopes of the purchasers not returning them. They could at the very least continue making the software available until all units are sold.This makes Yuneec worse than Comcast if you can believe that, in my book at least. The Breeze is a **** good drone and at $15o with a controller is a GREAT purchase for anyone wanting a drone or experienced pilots like myself.
So what is the real story guys? Do i need to wait and see if they really do put the software back on the market or should I return this great drone and bet the Ryze Tello for $100? Calling Yuneec I fear wont really have any real effect.... pleas, comment and lets discuss this....
