The problems with updating the firmware are an eternal source of trouble. Now I had to have the controller replaced under warranty (the original one had the threads of the sticks come apart). At first, the new controller would not pair with the drone at all. The dealer then took over - more...

A few months ago, the thread of the right controller joystick started to disintegrate. In the meantime, the right controller can hardly be moved, so that the drone can neither be started nor controlled. Is this an isolated case or do you also have this problem?

I wrap the drone with plastic film from the kitchen. So the blades are fixed close to the body and the blade edges are protected well.

Yep, the last update did a lot of good to the Lite Plus. I'm very thankful for the capabilities. Last week I had a long photo shooting close to the seaside, with strong wind with plenty of thermal activity and turbulence. All went well. One issue seems to be difficult: Some images showed blue...

Wow - download and upgrade has improved much to the prior versions. And I guess the interface is much better than before - it's easier to change settings while flying the drone. So let's dive in and find out what the little Evo Lite is capable of now.

Maybe, but I guess not. I did some additional flights yesterday, eg fast 360s with the horizon as reference line. For a while the gimbal turned always "northward", meaning: at a heading 90° the gimbal went about 10° to the right, and at the opposite direction (270°) the gimbal turned about 10°...

After updating the lite plus I got very crazy images from my lite plus today. At the beginning everything went well. I did some images of an aircraft shelter brickwall trying to bring the lite as close to the wall as possible. Then I ascended to do a pano shoot. After processing the pano shoot...

Agree. To take the first image in pano mode the camera turns into a horizontal position, with lenses against the bright skyline. Pano shoot mode would become more useful when the pilot is allowed to set the angle manually.

Hi just found a file on the Autel Download Site named EVO Lite Series LUT. Guess it's a table needed for video logs. But there's no info how to deal with it (installation? replacement?)

Note to myself: next time re-boot mobile device with wifi on prior to download. Then it works :)

Is there a special reason why downloading the firmware can't be done over wifi? Doing it via cellular broadcast is much more expensive. (Whenever wifi on the mobile device is turned on, the download fails.)

Is there a special (geographical) scheme for the rollout of the update? Some people seem to have downloaded and installed it, while I get no notification to update the Sky app and the drone firmware. If it's still not approved for a general rollout, please notify. Thanks.

If two very different phones have similar problems to run the app and to connect the remote, I guess the solution may be found elsewhere. Think about cellular coverage in your area. (Start the Evo Lite at another site.) Or your wifi settings. (Turn them off when connecting to the remote.) I...

After several weeks flying the Evo Lite+ the thing I really miss is an app that offers more opportunities than the Autel Sky App. If Autel would like to make more money without expanding production lines, the'd adopt the Autel Explorer for the Evo Lite series and offer the plus of functionality...

Have done the update 1.1.4 now for 5 times - with Wifi and without. Always with "success". And whenever I start the drone again, I get another update alert. Next time I'll charge Autel for the time wasted ... If Microsoft would have done Windows updates the same way, I'd still have to work on...
