    Drone won’t hover

    It is for both, but each platform has its own version of the app.

    Drone won’t hover

    Be sure you can download the Android app before you purchase a new phone. Links I had to the V1 app are gone.

    Drone won’t hover

    I went out and flew between rain drops. Learned a few things today myself. A simple mission with point #2 doing the hover and recording for 16 seconds. The IOS app can no longer see the drone so I switched to Android and set it to 25 seconds. That one did work, but it did not record the...

    Drone won’t hover

    Those were test missions I flew last year. The weather is not cooperating this week so I can’t fly. Here is the FW version is was using at the time: Firmware: v2.7.37 App ANDROID: 1.2.14 IOS : 1.16.3

    Drone won’t hover

    There is a time setting for recording. Mine records until the time expires, then moves on.

    Drone won’t hover

    Did it take the photos as you told it to? I ran this test last year and it worked fine.

    Drone won’t hover

    What kind of camera action have you selected at the waypoint? Autel may expect you to do something during your hover.

    Autel ripped me off

    Autel RID implementation apparently falls short.

    Skysafe study reveals some drone manufacturers fail to meet RID standards. So why did FAA grant them compliance? https://dronelife.com/2024/03/15/skysafe-study-reveals-some-drone-manufacturers-fail-to-meet-published-remote-id-standards/

    Thought Autel drones where serious work drones. Boy, was I wrong. The nightmare continues.

    I purchased an Enterprise V3 last spring. The battery in the smart controller would not charge. Autel told me to send the entire drone back because they had no replacements. No replacement parts for an enterprise level drone?? Nobody in their right mind would deal with a company like that...

    Burn me once, shame on Autel. Burn me 3 times, shame on me.

    Torn between Autel Evo Lite+ and DJI Air 3

    I also have both Autel and an Air 3. I like both. I use the RC2 controller w the Air 3 and have never had any problems with DJI’s geofencing. They were always quick to respond with unlock requests, even special ones where they permit the unlock to stay in effect for extended periods of time...

    Recommendations on Remote ID module for Evo Pro 2

    I installed the Holy Stone on my v1 and it works fine.

    Which One?

    Standard unlocking approvals took maybe 10min. A custom one my take a bit more, but they answered my email in less than 15 min. Their approvals last a long time so it doesn’t hurt to make the request early. Know where you need to fly beforehand. DJI geofencing has always been a threat to...

    Which One?

    You can contact DJI directly for details on unlocking. Send inquiries to [email protected]. They are easy to work with. This was a response I received when looking to fly in some complex airspace:
