Great drone for pros and amature pilots but not in any way should you think hey I want a drone and this will be the first one. Get a mustang before you move up to the big dogs. Great pictures decent flying time the controller is huge and intimidating but it really isn't hard to figure it out. 4k ar 30 frames is awesome and the pictures and film look amazing. Dont be a Jerry and ever auto images set them up right to save time in post.

Although I'm still learning how to really get the best out of the drone (flying and photography), so far it has been a blast (cant stop smiling). Way more than I expected. I purchased this because I felt the value in terms of price and capability were a no brainier. I also chose this drone because of its size (large), carbon fiber construction (arms and landing gear) and form factor (hexacopter) which MIGHT be better where I live given the unpredictable winds. I opted to add a Wizard controller and the Intel RealSense module later so I would recommend it as a bundle if you can afford it; you will save $$$ by buying it as a bundle. The only problem so far has been the weather which has prevented me from flying more.

The drone came without a scratch. Great bird. So far everything works out perfectly.

Easily the best drone for the price out there. I've flown these and the DJI and there really isn't a comparison. The H is so much easier and has all the features a pilot really needs. Sure there's some gimmicks on the DJI stuff, but in the end you want a stable platform (and this is SO MUCH MORE STABLE) and control of your video. The 360 gimbal makes aerial shots INFINITELY better than the fixed forward facing cameras and you can control shutter speed, ISO, and WB all on your screen without interfering with your flight. I was stunned by how easy this thing is. The hexacopter (6 rotors) makes the world of difference. The only thing I wish is that I waited a couple weeks because they started a summer sale right after I got it, but I'm in the process of taking care of that. Also, called their customer service to register just to be safe and ask a couple questions and they were amazing. Took a while, but I called right after the weekend when everyone is flying so no surprises there. Morale of the story? I recommend this whole heartedly.

Love how this drone flies. Landing gear raises so legs stay out of your shot and camera is low enough so you don't get props in your shot either. Flight time is good for a drone of this size which is much larger and more professional looking than other brands. Yuneec customer service is reportedly very good with solving issues promptly. Features are being added with firmware updates at a reasonable pace. 360 degree camera rotation and stability in wind thanks to 6 motors plus the added use of the Wizard Wand make this drone a great value.

Reliable 6-rotor design that has Support for 1 & 2 operators, incorporates Object detection & collision avoidance with an Unobstructed 360-degree 4K camera Suitable for amateur & professional applications with future optional upgrades and add on's that other craft don't offer. It price range is very competitive to its rival and support has been nothing but stellar. I have owned this unit since its inception and have been having fun with it since. Just Plain Fun!

I am one of the first to receive my Typhoon H on May 15, 2016. Since I charged the batteries I have really enjoyed flying my TH. It has really exceeded my expectations. This is my second Yuneec product. I will and do recommend the TH to anyone who is interested in a camera drone. Dragonflyerthom
