    Evo Speed Issue - Top Speed 10mph going forward

    Way to jump to conclusions yourself. I had the latest firmware update, tried it, with obstacle avoidance on and off, tried it with standard, novice mode, and ludacrus mode and was having the same results. I spoke with Autel support several times before they asked that I sent it in. Something was...

    Evo Speed Issue - Top Speed 10mph going forward

    Well, I got my drone back from Autel. Whatever they did they fixed the issue but they said that there wasn’t anything wrong with it. It’s a lot more responsive and is going the right speed forward and backward. I’m a lot happier now.

    Evo Speed Issue - Top Speed 10mph going forward

    I just reached out to Autel and will be sending it in for possible repairs. I have tried re-calibrating the RC, using different modes, using different batteries, etc and getting the same results. Will be interesting to see what happens.

    Evo Speed Issue - Top Speed 10mph going forward

    Nope. Didn’t fix it, just made it more out of control. Really frustrating. Tried using just the RC as well and it didn’t fix the issue either. It’s really annoying me.

    Evo Speed Issue - Top Speed 10mph going forward

    I know for sure I had novice mode turned off and even tried it with ludicrous mode and has the same issue. I haven’t tried flying it with just the remote. I’m going to try that tonight.

    Evo Speed Issue - Top Speed 10mph going forward

    No, I tested it going forward and backward while the drone was going away from me.

    Evo Speed Issue - Top Speed 10mph going forward

    Hm. That makes sense. I was flying over a body of water but I was also 250-300 feet up. I will have to try it again with the sensors off and see what happens.

    Evo Speed Issue - Top Speed 10mph going forward

    I bought an Evo around the holiday season and admittedly have not had the chance to even fly it until this weekend. Prior to flying I updated the firmware and also calibrated the RC. Took me a bit to figure out how to actually take off but it was easy to fly once I got it off the ground. I...

    EVO Batteries Defective?

    Update: I reached out to Autel Support and they are sending me a replacement. Before they agreed to send a replacement they asked for a video showing the battery not charging. The tech replied stating that they haven't had many reports of defective batteries but that he'd send a replacement out...

    EVO Batteries Defective?

    Thanks! Two out of three of my batteries appear to be charging fine. I tried to reset the other battery like you suggested and it didn't charge. It starts charging for approx 5 minutes and then it just stops. I even tried putting it in the drone itself and the drone wouldn't turn on at all. I'll...

    EVO Batteries Defective?

    tbae, any update? I just got the EVO and the On The Go Bundle as well. The battery that came with the EVO charged just fine. Trying to charge one of the batteries that came with the On The Go Bundle and it isn't charging at all.
