    What are your favorite songs to use for your drone videos?

    I'm fully aware of the rules of YouTube. In many cases, my usage of these songs generates advertising revenue for the owners. But thanks for the lecture.

    What are your favorite songs to use for your drone videos?

    While we all take great pride in our drone videos, without music, they're rather boring for most people to watch. Just curious if you could share some of your favorite songs you like to add to your videos. Here are some of mine: Caroline Jones - Rise: Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird: Candy Dulfer...

    Smart Orbit Cancels Every time...

    I just about to ask about the same time. I've used Smart Orbit mode many times before and it worked fine. Now it's suddenly not working. Must be due to a bug introduced into the software. I'm going to share this thread with Autel.

    Why aren't DNG photos being saved?

    A few days ago I noticed that I had no DNG (RAW photos) from my drone flight. So today, before flying, I double-checked and confirmed that "JPG + RAW" was indeed selected. Yet, back home now and there are no DNG files. Any ideas how to fix this? Robert

    Has anyone had problems getting Autel Robotics support to reply to their request for help?

    Last week I wrote [email protected]. No response. Two days later I wrote them again. No response. Yesterday I called them. I was first in line. A few minutes later I was asked if I wanted a callback. I opted for this. They never called. What is one to do? Open question: Is...

    Crash :-(

    Today I was flying my Evo 2 Pro in Smart Orbit mode about 5 yards above a tennis court. It was orbiting very slow, at about 2.5 mph. It came up to a large metal pole, about 10" in diameter. And it crashed right into it. It was not dark. Are the sensors turned off in Smart Orbit mode? If...

    *_THM.mp4 files?

    Yesterday my drone reported that my 128GB SD card was full. This was odd because I consistently move the captured video & photo files off of it. When I investigated this morning, I found an entirely separate set of files inside a THM folder. They come as a trio: MAX_####_THM.MP4...

    Home GPS Confusion?

    Out of respect for you, I checked with Autel Technical Support. They responded that your assertion has no validity. In other words, one does not need to "link the replacement battery to the remote".

    Home GPS Confusion?

    I'm confused. What do you mean "link the replacement battery to the remote"? I bought the device with 4 batteries. Never before have I read that I need to link each battery to the remote. Could you provide a URL explaining this?

    Home GPS Confusion?

    Interesting. Thank you.

    Home GPS Confusion?

    I write software for living. "Not sticking" is not logical.

    Home GPS Confusion?

    Something new happened today. I was flying my Evo 2 Pro in an open area, essentially the mouth of a canyon. Launching it the first time, everything worked normally. But when I swapped the battery and launched it a second time, when the low battery warning appeared, I pushed the Home button...

    Obstacle Avoidance

    I just watched this video: About 4 minutes in, the fellow mentioned the green/red icon in the top right of the phone screen. I believe this is what KamilK mentioned above.

    Obstacle Avoidance

    Thanks for these responses. Is there a way definitively tell if the sensors are on? Would the beeping / radar map be that definite way or is there another?

    Obstacle Avoidance

    I have a few questions about the obstacle avoidance feature on the Evo II Pro: Does it only work in GPS mode? Does it work at night?
