    Evo 2 pro enterprise 6k

    Maybe the problem is on the controller side? I'd try blowing some air around the control wheel, and maybe check the settings to make sure there's not some wacky value in the gimbal settings.

    Remote control and aircraft disconnected (a lot)

    Well, it took me three tries to get a successful manual update, but I just took it out for a couple of flights, and so far so good. No trouble connecting or staying connected. Hopefully this will take care of it for good! Thanks again!

    Oh, cool, thanks much, I'll check it out after work tonite.

    Remote control and aircraft disconnected (a lot)

    I've got an Evo II Pro 6k and I really like it, but I've been seeing a particular issue a lot more commonly than I'd like, and I'm wondering if it's just me or if a lot of Evo II Pro 6K owners are seeing the same thing. The issue is that shortly after take-off, the app says "Remote control and...

    Restrictions for Drone use in Construction

    I have the M2EA and I've used it for roof inspections. It works well, but the IR images are not compatible with Flir tools, so if you need precise, reliable measurements you might want to avoid the M2EA.

    Can't connect after firmware reinstall

    Ah, darn, it's been long enough now that I don't recall the exact steps I took. I do remember that the big thing that helped was starting the update and then stashing everything out of sight for 30 minutes. Pretty sure I followed the instructions for manually installing by copying the firmware...

    spherical panos on Autel 6K using smart controller

    Yeah, my DJI Mini 2 does that, so I was kind of disappointed when the E2P took way longer and didn't even capture the whole sky.

    spherical panos on Autel 6K using smart controller

    Oh, I didn't mean trying to render it directly into the pano, I just meant "realistic looking." Of course, that still leaves the problem of projecting it into the pano correctly, which I don't know how to do yet. I think there's a Photoshop filter for that?

    spherical panos on Autel 6K using smart controller

    Oo, now that you've given me the idea of using the fill-in space for watermarks etc, I'm going to have to see if I can figure out how to put a 3D rendered mother ship up there.

    spherical panos on Autel 6K using smart controller

    Oo, that sounds awesome, let me know if you ever find it. I was kind of disappointed at having to fill in a fake sky.

    spherical panos on Autel 6K using smart controller

    I followed this tutorial: TLDR; the trick is to edit the canvas size (not the image size) to add enough space at the top so that it becomes 2:1, then fill in the empty pixels with gradient/cloned sky/etc.

    Can't connect after firmware reinstall

    It's quit offering me the 2.2.5 firmware update though. Maybe it figured I was too dumb to get it installed right, lol.

    Can't connect after firmware reinstall

    Lol, yeah, in programming we call it an "ID-ten-T error," as in "Some ID10T turned off the controller too soon!" I thought it looked like the controller crashed, but from now on I'll just put things where I can't see them and jump to conclusions.

    Can't connect after firmware reinstall

    Ok, I think I'm good now: I re-tried the manual firmware update again, and this time I moved my drone and controller someplace where I couldn't easily see them and left them alone for 30 minutes (which Autel says is how long a firmware update might take). The first retry finished and reported a...

    Can't connect after firmware reinstall

    TLDR; I manually installed the Evo II V2 firmware (2.1.31, the current version according to the website), and now the drone isn't connecting to the controller. Oddly, though, the camera is displaying just fine, so I've got some kind of connection there. I've tried powering both off and powering...
