    What lens protection Nano Evo Plus ?

    I’ve used a Freewell Polarizing filter designed for the Nano’s camera on my Nano+ for a year and never had an issue. Here’s the filter I’m using- https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/product/1690408-REG/freewell_fw_evnano_pl_polarized_pl_filter_compatible.html

    Dull screw in my evo nano+

    Here’s something I found that might help on removing small Phillips screws with stripped heads. Good luck.

    Unable to login to my profile on Autel Sky app

    How about enabling your S21 phone’s ‘Do Not Disturb’ feature while you are flying your drone? On my Samsung Galaxy S10 it’s under Settings->Notifications, or just search for it in Settings. Remember to disable it afterwards.

    Can the FAA mail a ticket to a drone pilot if not caught on the spot by local law enforcement?

    Per US Federal statute 18 U.S. Code § 3282 What is the Statute of Limitations for Federal Crimes? The statute of limitations is the time limit for filing charges against the defendant. The general federal statute of limitations for felonies stand for the proposition that the government can...

    Gimbal calibration and Freewell filters

    I’ve used a Freewell Polarizing filter designed for the Nano’s camera on my Nano+ for a year and never saw the issues you mentioned. Was the filters you are using specifically designed for the Nano? If you remove the filter does the gimbal calibration complete, and the camera work properly...

    Remote problem

    Personally I’d contact Autel and get a replacement. I don’t have that issue with mine but I did find a video on YouTube showing how to disassemble the controller. It’s a bit complicated and requires some small Torx screwdrivers. I don’t think I’d try it myself but you can decide for yourself...

    Batteries and firmware update

    If a battery needs to be updated the app will inform you once a battery is installed and the drone and controller are powered up. Just wait a few seconds for them to all sync up.

    firmware and software update

    Could you post the process that Autel recommended to “force” an update in case someone else would like to try it. BTW - I luckily installed the latest update without any issue and my Nano+ is working normally.

    Nano/Nano+ Firmware Update 10/10/2022 ( Dynamic tracking available) iOS: 1.4.51Android 1.4.32

    It worked much better at lower altitude where the target (myself) was the major object in its field of view. It didn’t like quick moves to the left or right, or when running either away from, or toward and under the drone. It followed quite well when I walked away or toward it at a steady slow...

    Nano/Nano+ Firmware Update 10/10/2022 ( Dynamic tracking available) iOS: 1.4.51Android 1.4.32

    Thanks, that’s it. I’d see the blue ‘Follow’ box flash onto the screen but it would go away before I ever clicked on it. I think it kept trying to find another target. One difference I see on your video is that your body and bike were occupying a large portion of the screen and the drone was...

    Nano/Nano+ Firmware Update 10/10/2022 ( Dynamic tracking available) iOS: 1.4.51Android 1.4.32

    I was able to upgrade my Nano + without a hitch. The new Track feature would mark several possible targets with a blue plus sign. Selecting one of those targets resulted in a yellow rectangle appearing on screen around the target. The camera then gimbled to center the selected target on the...

    Drone doesn't move down and gimball doesn't move

    Perhaps you have a bad controller. I’d contact Autel and see if you can send it in for repair or a replacement.

    Drone doesn't move down and gimball doesn't move

    You might try recalibration of the controls. Settings > Control > RC Calibration
