    "Unknown Battery" error on 3 different batteries

    You were able to charge the battery after it was fully discharged? I posted about a problem I’m having with another battery that won’t turn on or charge. I think it is fully discharged and has been for a couple of months and I don’t think I’ll be able to save it.

    Battery Won’t Power On or Charge

    No, I probably wouldn’t trust the battery after this. Good point! It’s not worth loosing the drone over a battery. They are not cheap! They weren’t cheap two years ago and I think they’ve gone up a bit since then. I now wonder if the drone turned on inside the case as you mentioned. As...

    Battery Won’t Power On or Charge

    I’ve got (4) batteries for my V2 that were all purchased at the same time and put into service 6/2022. They all have less than 10 discharges. Today I decided to top off all of them and one of them would not charge or power on. This one was in the drone and the last one that I used which was a...

    "Unknown Battery" error on 3 different batteries

    I just had the same thing happen with one of my batteries from my company owned V2 a couple of weeks ago. I inserted this battery, turned the drone on and it displayed “unknown battery”. The drone would not power on. I’ve got (4) batteries that are approaching 2 years old. If I remember...

    Remote ID placement on drone

    It does have Bluetooth which I believe is primarily for pairing to your phone so you can update firmware via the app.

    Remote ID placement on drone

    The DroneScout looks pretty big in comparison to the Dronetag Beacon. Maybe it’s got a larger battery?

    Remote ID placement on drone

    I’m using a Dronetag Beacon and I’ve mounted it right on the top of my EVO II Pro. Note: The black next to the Beacon is my FAA number that I blacked out. I just started using it last week, about 5 batteries of flight time. It doesn’t seem to interfere with the drone’s GPS or any of its...

    Dronetag Beacon Ongoing Observations and Discussions

    Why does the Dronetag Beacon look so tall on top of your EVO II? According to their website it’s .6” tall. Maybe it just looks taller in the picture?

    I’m Considering Purchasing Another EVO II Pro

    I didn’t know if the additional features of the Dual would be of any value to me at this time.

    I’m Considering Purchasing Another EVO II Pro

    My thought was redundancy or backup. Having the option to grab drone #2 in the event #1 fails and I’m working on something time sensitive. At $2500+ adding a second drone didn’t make much sense. Not that $1800 is cheap but it’s a bit easier to digest.

    It's Crazy, These Autel Drones Are Over 50% Off for Black Friday

    Maybe that’s not necessarily a bad thing. Yes, one more thing for us to purchase but could you imagine the stability of the firmware update that would have included adding remote Id?

    I’m Considering Purchasing Another EVO II Pro

    I’ve been watching the Black Friday prices and I’ve thought about picking up another EVO II Pro. Am I crazy for considering this?

    It's Crazy, These Autel Drones Are Over 50% Off for Black Friday

    Sounds like V2 EVO owners will end up having to use an add on remote ID Module if Autel is not willing to support this through a firmware update.
