Yuneec Skins Still in Business

[South bay pilot]

Does anyone know if Yuneec Skins is still in business?

I got a shipping label from him a few months ago. I sent him my drone and camera but haven’t been able to get a hold of him. I’ve tried email and calling him, but no response.

He was last signed into the forum on Jan 18, 2025. You may try sending him a Direct Message here. Right click on this link @Yuneec Skins then select send Direct Message.

His website is operational and I assume sales are working there so keep attempting contact. He does get very busy at times.

Not to make a fuss, I can understand that John can be busy, but leaving clients without any information for months is not very professional.

In the end it doesn't take too much time to send a message... an email...

This is my point of view... I certainly wouldn't be happy with the service if I was in the user conditions like @South bay pilot

Thank you for your help. I will keep trying.

Thank you for the support. I am the last person to post negative information.

Like I said, I paid the $75. Then after a couple of weeks and several emails just to get the shipping label. So I have paid for the service or diagnosis but haven’t been able to get any response. I am out and drone and camera. That’s something that I can not afford to replace. I just don’t have the money.

So at this point I would caution anyone that needs a drone diagnosis to steer clear of Yuneec Skins. Sorry to say.

Did you send a Direct Message here? Any response to that?

I sympathize with your plight! I myself would be furious after just a couple of weeks.

 

[South bay pilot]

Yes I sent a DM. No response.

I have devastating news for the Yuneec community. John Mitchell has passed away very suddenly. His helper is trying to deal with sorting out all of the outstanding orders and repairs. Currently she does not have access to John's computers so it will take some time to work all of this out.

Oh my God! I feel so bad. My prayers for Him and his Family.

Respectfully,

Same thing here but I also ordered some tools and a battery on this same order so I am out the drone, my tools and no repair. That was on October 12 , 2024.. No returned calls, no emails, no disposition on my estimate etc., I made 20+calls, emails and one way communications with that annoying "chat bot". I am out over $1,000 bucks because I just bought the drone, plus did some repair part purchases and umpteen hours of technical study and hardware work before I sent it in for repair. Now that I see others have had the same issue, I'm pretty angry and am planning a trip to the Sacramento area next week March (I live in Fresno) to retrieve my stuff and get reimbursed for my unfilled order. I am a licensed Private Investigator so I will be able to find the principals behind this business. (S Bay Pilot) If you want to send me a text message I will check on your stuff for you while I am there. My phone is (559) 288-1598.

I was coming here to say the exact same thing; looking to see if anybody else had an issue. I got a label from John last year. The drone was delivered on Dec. 10. He was quick to respond and take my money for a label, but I haven’t heard from him after multiple attempts. I work for a company that Is going to force me to file a police report soon. Don’t want to do that. Anyone that has direct communication with him, please put a bug in his ear.

So, now I feel like a tool. Saw the posts about John passing away right after my comment. Hoping the best for his loved ones.

Edit: I sent his YP account Yuneec Skins a direct message. Will report if I hear anything.
