    New Tripltek Mini Tablet (cell phone size)

    Agreed. My S8+ is a backup for the Smart Controller V1 if I'm hiking or just don't want to mess with a big controller.

    New Tripltek Mini Tablet (cell phone size)

    A Samsung Galaxy S8+ 1000 nits does the job gust as nice for $200.00 $600,00 is little over priced.

    New Autel Pilot

    Welcome New Pilot, That's not very far. My EVO 2 V1 had that problem so I upgraded to a Smart controller and a real fast SD card. Now I can go miles with no problems. Is it the video signal that's week or id the transmission to control the drone weak or is the SD card not fast enough to keep...

    I'm "really" new to Drones.....

    It is going to help a lot if you can tell us what drone you have. You should always read the owners manual and look on line for information with the model you have. You Tube is very helpful. The two features you mention are usually in the app without a firmware update. and in the controller menu...

    Advice, Evo 2 v1 fell from the sky

    That scares me. The unexpected like you had. I am over cautious now and becoming paranoid to explore any more. As soon as the weather breaks I have a new friend I meat on the 2way radio that has a lot of land in the hills of the Finger Lakes and will be there from now on. Away from danger and...

    Advice, Evo 2 v1 fell from the sky

    So Sorry about your loss. That had to be a bad day. I'd be mortified loosing a $1500.00 drone. After hearing all the horror stories like yours, I keep a close eye on mine. Any ideas on the run away or loss of connection why you lost the drone ? I would post you stuff for sale with pictures and...

    Against the wind this bad?

    Your not alone. I get the same thing with my EVO 2. I suffer thru the drag and then make my speed runs with the wind to take advantage of to speed. Most of the time I go slow anyway concentrate on the video and photos. Happy flying. Spring is her now along with high winds. At least in the...

    I think I may have been taken for a ride.

    DO NOT Even Open the Box when it arrives... Apply for a return ASAP from Amazon and give the reason that you we miss led and sold the wrong item. Bring that box right to UPS or your drop off. As soon as Amazon sees a label created you will see your credit. No scene in being curious just return...

    landing protection

    Sorry you can't solve this problem. Maybe if you set the height in a mission. I've never tried that low before. I got nothing else. Good luck. Hope you fine a solution. I would do some experiments but theirs to much snow and it's way to cold. When I can, I will and get back to you.

    landing protection

    You can try turning off your Downward Vision Position or Visual Obstacle Avoidance or Both in the settings of the controller your using.

    Registration Help

    I haven't dealt with Autel Support in 9 months but when I did and it was a quite a few times and they were excellent to me. I had an issue like yours activating the Autel Care and they got back to me 3-4 days later after the weekend went by. I did call them back. They didn't have much going on...
