    How accurate is your automatic landing?

    EVO II Pro V2 pretty good on Hoodman landing pad. Problem I have is that at touchdown the height shows '0' ft but when the motors shut off the 'Height' on my controller and/or the app goes to a negative number .. weird. Won't go back to zero unless I turn the battery off and back on. Been...

    Height Shows Negative Value on Landing

    Kobo from tech support acknowledged it is a problem. Suggested IMU calibration. Did that, problem not fixed. Waiting next guidance from Autel tech support.

    Height Shows Negative Value on Landing

    Ken, I was seeking responses regarding the behavior from EVO II Pro owners, not an interrogation. Thanks for your time reading the post. Bob H

    Height Shows Negative Value on Landing

    At over $2,000 this drone should not be doing this. A glitch like this makes one wonder what else might be hiding as a problem.

    Firmware V. 2.4.35 Crisis!

    I was providing background ... Previously I had an EVO I. Thus I had the "old" version of Autel Explorer installed on my iPad. I removed it and installed the new one for the V2 firmware per the instructions Autel has published.

    Firmware V. 2.4.35 Crisis!

    UPDATE Compass calibration successfully. No more “abnormality“ errors. Gimbal goes to “ready to fly” in about 10 seconds Or less. I think I may have just been impatient since my EVO 1 was pretty much instant on and ready to fly.

    Battery Hard to Remove

    Brand new, 3 batteries. Two packed with rugged combo, bought a third with my order from Autel USA Bothell, WA. Not swollen or deformed. Other odd thing, the serial numbers on the scan code sticker are different than what battery status, serial number in the Explorer app reports.

    Firmware V. 2.4.35 Crisis!

    UPDATE: Re-did the upgrade via download to microSD card and it completed after going through the process twice. All component firmware versions agree with V2.4.35 documentation. BUT NOW -- Startup gives "Gimbal Not Ready" and "Compass Abnormality" messages on the controller. Will attempt a...

    Battery Hard to Remove

    I thought my EVO 1 batteries were hard to get off ... the EVO II Pro takes it to a whole new level! Any tips? Right now I have to use a pair of channel lock pliers to squeeze the releases and pull the battery out. This is on all three batteries I got with my new aircraft. Bob H
