    PPK question

    Thank you sooo much! This points me to a defective RTK puck, for what ever reason not capturing GPS information, and I can have confidence in the new Firmware Update. Very helpful! Thanks!

    PPK question

    Thanks Dave, That info is helpful. It would be helpful if someone has had success with 2.3.13. At least that way I know to focus on the hardware and have more confidence in the firmware.

    PPK question

    RTK PPK question. Firmware 2.3.13 installed on Evo 2 Enterprise PRO V2 RTK and the RINEX.obs and MRK files are writing correctly in the Mission folder however the OBS file does not contain the GPS constellation. It does have Galileo, Beidou, and GLONASS constellations. I am in the US. Anyone...

    2.3.8 FW Upgrade Failure

    Do not over complicate the process. Find a friend that has a Windows machine and copy the ZIP file onto the SD card. No need to unzip as the drone startup will take care of that. As far as running Windows on the MAC, there is a software product I use called Parallels. See: www.parallels.com

    2.3.8 FW Upgrade Failure

    When updating the firmware by putting the Zip file onto the SD card, Be sure to use a Windows platform. I chased my tail on this for a day or more before Ken Booth suggested using a Windows platform to copy the Zip file. I'm a MAC guy, and yes, MAC has a different format that the drone boot up...

    EVO2 Enterprise DUAL 640T RTK: maps and models of IR and RGB jpegs (NTRIP data)

    The GSD is the distance between center points of each sample on the ground, which in this case are represented by pixels of images representing the ground. This is going to be a function of sensor size, picture MP and distance / height flown. The sensor on the 640T is smaller then the 6K Pro...

    Major change needed at Autel

    I'm not with Autel...just a user like you. My suggestion that worked for me: From a PC, clear everything off an SD card, download the zip file for the firmware update. Store ZIP file on SD card, and place SD card into drone. Turn on controller, turn on drone, and wait...give it 35 minutes, so...

    Major change needed at Autel

    All MAC here as well, but I started to bump against other software programs I wanted to use that were windows based, RTKLIB for one, so I knuckled under and installed Parallels Desktop on the MAC with Windows running... MAC and Windows files usually play well together, but the Autel boot...

    Major change needed at Autel

    Regarding Firmware updates, Ken was of immense help in trouble shooting a firmware update for the Enterprise Evo 2 RTK. Turns out, loading the "bin" files to the SD card using a MAC created a situation where the firmware update failed and the drone would not bind. Adding the "bin" file to the...

    EVO2 Enterprise DUAL 640T RTK: maps and models of IR and RGB jpegs (NTRIP data)

    My thought process was to buy the Enterprise 6K bundle, learn mapping, perfect my photography skills, build visual inspection business, then add RTK and upgrade the gimble to do Solar PV inspections. I love the fact the payload is interchangeable.

    EVO2 Enterprise DUAL 640T RTK: maps and models of IR and RGB jpegs (NTRIP data)

    I just recently purchased the Evo 2 Enterprise, loving the Drone this week and the 6K camera is amazing. My thoughts are to also add RTK and purchase the FLIR 640R camera as my experience, expertise, and business grows. My understanding is that the 640T, although radiometric is not FLIR and...
