    X-Star Premium & X-Star WiFi FIrmware Issues Version Now @ 2.0.12 Final

    I would say delete it from your phone and download it again. I did notice that I got a message today after my phone updated that the version of starlink was out of date and no longer compatible with the current version of Android. I closed all messages and it worked as it should have.

    Damaged battery message

    I had one of my 3 batteries to give a low battery warning when I climbed fast or demanded a lot of power from the Evo. As long as I flew it slow, everything was fine. To further check it, I checked the cell voltage as I climbed and it was dropping significantly. I landed, shut it down and...

    battery for x star

    If they do have the battery in stock, It will be new-old stock and it is highly unlikely that the battery will take a charge. I wouldn't trust it.

    X-Star Battery News

    Thanks for the interest in helping. Max Amps is no longer interested in helping to provide us with battery replacements. I think I have some cells that are going to work. I just have to get the time to devote to it.

    Alientech Duo II Antenna 2.4G/5.8G Dual-band Signal Booster $340 (reasonable offers are welcome)

    Without the adapters, this should fit the stock EVO and EVO 2 controllers, Right??? I bought the pro version and while it lets me go about twice as far, I'm still not impressed with it. After a lot of rain, I can go just about as far with the stock antennas.

    Need Help. Evo 1 & EVO 2 PRO with Smart Controller

    Thanks for the info! I think I have decided to go with Alientech Duo with my stock transmitter.

    Need Help. Evo 1 & EVO 2 PRO with Smart Controller

    Attempting to wake up an older thread here... So, would it be worth it to buy the SC for my Evo 1? And will it boost the range? I have broken antennas and I want a better phone and this would take care of the two at once. Please advise.

    Battery question

    Do you know how many cycles you have on your 3 X-Star batteries?

    Battery question

    IMHO the X-star's batteries are charged at too high of a rate and MOST of the cells were of cheaper quality. I got my eyes on a 100c 4s pack to replace the cells with. I will post the results when I get a chance to rebuild it.

    First commercial roof shoot. Looking for advise.

    I get a roof inspection job for my EVO every now and then. My last one was to see how the roof was attached to the neighbor's wall. Once I showed the contactor the video, he was amazed. Then he wanted a whole roof inspection.

    Autel X-Star Go

    I really don't think you'll hurt anything with a 9v battery. Even if you held it on there indefinitely, it wouldn't overcharge the battery. Also a 9v don't have much capacity so its charge would diminish quickly. You really need a 12v battery or another 4S (4 cell) battery to jump it with...

    Autel X-Star Go

    I have never had to do it but you connect the dead battery to a charged one. Positive to positive and negative to negative and let it sit a while. Then disconnect and connect it to the stock charger. If you don't have a charged battery, the 12v battery from a riding mower, your boat or car will...

    X-Star Battery News

    I'm Back! At least for now. To sum it all up, during my busy part of the season with my side job, my dads cancer came back and Dr. visits and his care took all my time and more. Unfortunately, he is no longer with us as of November 27th 2021. I plan to get back on this battery issue soon. I...

    battery for x star

    Yes, I noticed that people want $150 for a said "good" battery. I'll never buy a used battery for anything that leaves the ground for more than a few seconds. I have learned that the size battery that the X-Star uses is more expensive than the normal 4900/5000mah LiPo cell. Hopefully they...
