I have two Nano+ drones. They bounce around in the wind, but the video is rock solid. Nice quality video and still images. The Sky app sometimes has some hiccups though, but still maintains control.

I suspect that once a few land basds surveyors start using drones for surveying, they will wish they hadn't fought this battle.

Curious. I have had to contact Autel customer service several times and in each case received a response within a few days. The hardware issues were always resolved however some software issues with the Lite+ took longer.

On the freeways in California, if you are not going at least ten over the speed limit, you will be run over by a semi.

This might seem bogus, but it worked for me. I have a Nano + and partway through a flight, the gimbal started moving all around. From the video feed, it looked like the drone must have been doing somersaults. I could see the drone and it was not moving at all about 100 feet up and about 100...

I don't know what some others are whining about. I have had to deal with Autel Customer Support on several issues and each time, they get back within a day or two. The repairs have been turned around within two weeks. Maybe I am lucky or maybe I just treat them politely.

My EVO 2 v2 sometimes takes panoramas and the stitched image will be on my iPhone in the images and videos captured. Sometimes, it just laughs when I try to get it to take a panorama and does nothing. If it works, I can email the panorama from within the app and after receiving it, on a...

My experiences with Autel customer support have been similar.

The Apple App store (iOS version) updated the Sky app late yesterday afternoon and the upgrade for the Nano+ completed normally. Will try the Lite+ today.

I have had multiple contacts with Autel support and all of them have been satisfactory. Sometimes the response took a day or two, but they have always come back and helped with a solution. One in particular, after a crash repair, they forgot to include the gimbal cover. I happened to be in...

You will not be disappointed with the Lite+

I found some some 1-ft/300mm generic USB-c to USB-c cables on eBay and they have been working for me.

I have several Autel and DJI drones and while there have been minor issues with both brands, support from Autel has always come through. DJI support has also been good. Some people whine about Autel support, but I suspect they start the support request with a bad attitude and then wonder why...

I updated my Evo Pro v2 and installed toe new version of the Explorer app and have had no difficulties

Maybe we should wait until the FAA makes them available to us for $25.00 before complying.
