    Mapping huge area

    A Phase One 100mp sensor in an aircraft would have been a much better choice than a 20mp sensor in a drone for this type of project. But when all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail.

    Mapping huge area

    Hire a conventional aircraft. 20km² is a ridiculous amount for any typical UAS.

    Considering switching to Evo II RTK

    I came from an extensive background with DJI, P4s in particular, both RTK and base models. I tried out the Autel v2 with RTK, and while the image quality was great, it's underlying issues were too many to consider it safe to use in a commercial environment. I have since received a v3 unit...

    Autel EVO II Enterprise RTK arm not engaging

    EVO II Enterprise RTK with Emlid RS2 Base

    Yeah - both on Autel's side, and Emlid's, this is nowhere near as straightforward as I feel it should be. I'm really struggling to prove value in tools like this if they simply don't work, or don't work efficiently. The lack of support (from both sides) here is also pretty frustrating. @yarrr...

    EVO II Enterprise RTK with Emlid RS2 Base

    I'm trying to write corrected coordinates at the drone after connecting to an Emlid Reach RS2 acting as a base. The base has been assigned manual coordinates, due to it being at a known control point. The problem seems to be that even though I'm getting a FIX at the drone, I'm not receiving the...

    AUTEL EVO II FIRMWARE UPDATE: Constantly updated ( new V1 STABLE fw 2.7.35) - 28/02/2022 - (NEW V2 STABLE fw 2.3.8 - 19/04/2022)

    My EVO II Enterprise smart controller seems to have frozen at 99% Unpacking, with 10sec left. Everything was going smoothly until this. I'm upgrading to v2.2.5 via the SD card. Any thoughts? Power everything down? It's been at this stage for like 10 minutes now. Now the controller just beeps...

    EVO II E RTK - Spherical Panorama overexposed

    Hello, yesterday I received an EVO II E RTK, and was using it to capture some spherical panoramas. It captured 26 images in RAW format, but as the images progress, the become more and more over-exposed. Has anyone come across this, and is there a fix?
