    Autel Announces Delay In Production Of EVO 2

    Matti, that is NOT the way to "act" humble. Nuff said on that. Thanks for the link as it will still be interesting to hear what he has to say about the drones footage. Always need to remind ourselves to get a bit of background on reviewers before putting faith in "their" opinions. It's...

    Autel Announces Delay In Production Of EVO 2

    Suggested watch is Ken Heron #131 with Xjet Bruce Simpson or just Xjet Bruce Simpson cut that's about 33 minutes. His comments about the FAA. Has everyone in the US received a notice from the FAA asking for input? I got one the other day. Still formulating what I want to say. Xjet made...

    Autel Announces Delay In Production Of EVO 2

    While I generally agree i dont think DJI is going to give away their pro-sumer business without a big fight. They have huge numbers of US consumers to fight for them and i would be stunned if their drones are not going to suddenly turn into bricks. $400 - $2000 drones sold like hotcakes adds...

    Autel Announces Delay In Production Of EVO 2

    DJI may release a competitor to the Evo 2 but you can be assured that it will cost a lot more. I dont believe for a moment that they wont market the heck out of it as the premium product regardless of its specs. Are they going to do a hot swappable camera system remains to be seen. They could...

    The New Upcoming Autel Robotics EVO 2 Discussion Thread

    I am not ready to upgrade either as I dont "need" anything better than what the Evo can already do. Could use the airtime and low light capabilities of the 1" but since I never intend to make $ what's the point of spending at least $2500 to get all the stuff purchased all over again. Cant...

    The New Upcoming Autel Robotics EVO 2 Discussion Thread

    Well folks it looks like Autel Evo 2 release has pushed into at least March due to some software bug that can affect flight. They decided to update all of them rather than ship and have the customer do it. Personally I believe it's something more than just a simple software update and they are...

    RIP My Evo

    I have state farm for home/cars and need to look into this. Is it for all states (Allstate haha)?

    RIP My Evo

    Man that's too bad:( You probably have some other pieces/parts you have accumulated for it that you could also sell if you are set on the Evo 2. The controller is certainly worth some $. If your Evo will still connect check the # of cycles on each battery since they would be worth more the...

    World’s First V-Shaped Bi-Copter V-Coptr Falcon by ZeroZero Robotics

    No way. If it was possible they would say it. From what people at CES said it feels cheap:(

    The New Upcoming Autel Robotics EVO 2 Discussion Thread

    His introduction to the Evo 2 video was just a wee bit over the top lol. Actually made me cringe.

    The New Upcoming Autel Robotics EVO 2 Discussion Thread

    With all the excited talk from youtube reviewers who have an Evo 2 on hand where are all the actual flight reviews? Would have expected a race to see who could put out the meat and potatoes first.

    The New Upcoming Autel Robotics EVO 2 Discussion Thread

    Listened to a dobo video last night talking about a flight that I think was over 4 miles with no issue. Remember he also was told by Autel that all the extended range came from changes to the drone itself and not the RC. From what Ive gathered so far the setup DJI uses for control/video is...

    The New Upcoming Autel Robotics EVO 2 Discussion Thread

    Just watched a hover test to 8% autoland. Evo 21:09 Mavic 2 Pro 21:42 Evo 2 8k 31:53 All 3 showed on their RC they had VERY impressed that it is possible to hit the Evo 2 rated 35 minutes hover spec if you flew to 0%.

    World’s First V-Shaped Bi-Copter V-Coptr Falcon by ZeroZero Robotics

    I cant help but think more of a VTOL when I see the Falcon as I own a couple XK ones and am looking at buying the newer XK-450 which offers even more flying modes RTR for about $100. The ones I own are a hoot to fly and pretty much anyone can do it right out of the box. If the Falcon can...
