Image won't boot on Raspberry Pi3 Model B+

Hello,
using the image qlcplus_raspian_jessie_20171028.img the Raspberry Pi 3 Model B+ (introduced in march) doesn't boot, only showing the colored square.
On Pi 3 Model B or Pi 2 booting is no problem.

Maybe Raspian jessie is the the cause.
Are there any plans for a new image using Raspian stretch?

Thank you!

Found a workaround for this:
If you got another (older) Pi, run apt-get update and apt-get upgrade
After that, run rpi-update to get the latest firmware.
Finally edit config.txt in the boot folder and add
max_usb_current=1

Put the card in the Pi 3 B+ and everything should run.

I am aware of that, in fact I've noted it -in yellow- in the RPi page of the QLC+ website.

A new image has been released in 2018 that boots on RPi 3 B+. Are you using 20180410 ?
