    EVO 2 Smart Controller V1 replace internal battery?

    I opened mine to unplug and plug in the existing battery. Just pull the screws in the back and gently pry it open. Mine still won't turn on despite having a good battery. Autel suggested that I wait until the battery dies to see if it resets. It has yet to die after a year. I moved on to a...

    EVO 2 Smart Controller V1 replace internal battery?

    I have a S/c V1 I'd sell. As others know, Autel won't service them. Mine went black while flying and I can't get it to turn back on. I went as far as opening the case to unplug-plug in the battery to no avail.

    "Objects Above Drone" Warning when Nothing Is Above Drone

    While testing new tablet today, noticed I was getting lots of "objects above aircraft" (not verbatim) warnings and wouldn't let the a/c fly higher. Turning off the collision avoidance allows me to fly higher but still get the warnings. Evo 2 Pro V1 If I place something above the aircraft while...

    Explorer # 1.2.14 OK?

    Since I can't get my S/C repaired, I've invested in a Lifthor mount and one of their newer 2600nit tablets. The tablet has Explorer version 1.1.6.5 preinstalled which is missing the ability to program the rear buttons on the controller. After contacting Autel, I was sent a link to download...

    Current Options for Good Tablet & Mount for Evo2 Pro

    When my Smart Controller bricked almost a year ago - Autel's suggestion was to wait until the battery died. It has yet to do so, I even opened the case and unplugged the battery for a bit to no avail. As expected, tech support can do nothing for my V1 SC. (Hard to believe an item that costly...

    Remote ID Requirements starting Sept 2023

    Agreed. I ordered a DroneTag Beacon as I wanted to be compliant with my V1. I later tried to CX the order and found that even cancellations....before the item has shipped....are liable for credit card fees. So, I left it on order. For those wondering, yes this fee is shown in their disclosure...

    Considering Tripltek - Which Mount

    Yes - understood. Didn't do a long test today....but went well. Anxious to try a longer test.

    Considering Tripltek - Which Mount

    Well, today I did a test. Seems my new iPhone 14 Max Pro has a max 2000 nits brightness. That's brighter than the Tripltek, if I see correctly. Anyhow - it all worked well. All features worked on the standard Evo controller, in fact, I think this combination actually works better than the S/C.

    Considering Tripltek - Which Mount

    I didn't...but certainly can look into that. Thanks

    Considering Tripltek - Which Mount

    With my Smart Controller dead and no way to repair. I am considering either using my iPhone 14 Max Pro or perhaps getting a Tripltek. If I go for the tablet, is there a mount for the standard controller that is better than another? I know, I want it all...but would prefer it to still fit in the...

    Intelligent Modes - Any Update?

    I was ready to bite the bullet and upgrade. I figured that when I consider the cost of an RID unit, some of the purchase price sting went away. Loosing Dual Stability is a deal breaker for me. I use this often. Even my first gen Mavic Mini has a similar mode. I'll add an RID tag to my V1 and...

    Intelligent Modes - Any Update?

    Thanks surenmunoo - sadly what I expected the answer to be. Very disappointing, and likely takes me out of going to the V3. Makes me wonder how users of the V3 duplicate the Dual Stability mode. Or, do you just do without what I find a very helpful mode. In the end, seems like a "no win"...

    Intelligent Modes - Any Update?

    As if I needed one more thing to go sideways these days, while flying my Evo 2 Pro V1 to ensure it's working for an upcoming job...my SC screen froze. I held down the power key in hopes of a reset. The screen doesn't come on, only the battery LEDs. (Even more disappointment - reverting to the...
