I have a project where the art director wants the exact same flight path in midday and at the end of the day. He wants a pull back flight, flying away from the scene. He plans to fade from midday to end of day in the final video. Flying forward and reversing the footage is not a good option as...

A1: Thanks for this tip. Have not calibrated the remote unless asked by it to do so. How often or under what circumstances do you recommend calibrating the controller? A2: Flying with an iPad Mini 5th Generation with cellular connection. The LifThor Mjølnir EVO Tablet Holder is a great...

Since I made the original post, I have performed 2 tests flights of the Autel drone. It operated normally on a Manual flight and on an automated flight. Since those flights I have taken Geo Dome SRL's advice and calibrated the controller and its sticks. Thanks for that tip. The drone took off...

I have an Autel Evo 2 Pro 6k. On 11/16/21 I was flying it in the suburbs of Philadelphia. About 10 minutes into the flight, it wouldn’t respond to the controls. It drifted and then I invoked Return to Home. It started flying straight back to Home. Once it got about 300 feet from Home, I...

I have an Autel Evo 2 Pro 6k. When I shoot video and then download the files using Adobe Lightroom, the video files end up with a date/time stamp that is 1/1/04 12:00AM. The same happened when copying the video file in Mac Finder. It's useful to me to know the date and time of video files that...

I am looking to buy a replacement clear filter for my Evo Pro 2, 6k. Anyone know where I can get one? Thanks,

I am looking at doing a flight tomorrow where the temperature is likely to be 25 degrees F. with 20mph winds. Will the Evo 2 Pro 6k operate in 25 degrees? I know to keep the battery warm before the flight.

I have an upcoming assignment to photograph a large suburban apartment complex with my Autel Evo 2 Pro 6k drone. Winds are predicted to be about 20mph with gusts up to 30mph. What are the highest wind/gusts speeds that makes sense to fly in?

I just purchased an Evo 2 Pro 6k. I've been flying a DJI Phantom 4 Pro v2. I've been flying drones professionally since the summer of 2015. I bought the Evo 2 because I have a long term project doing 107 flights close to a major Class B airport. I can get FAA permission for my flights using the...

I recently bought an Autel Evo 2 Pro 6k. I've flown 6 times, and so far I'm pretty happy with it. I have been flying a DJI Phantom 4 v2 Pro for about 4 years. One thing I noticed with the Evo 2 is that the Return to Home function kicked in and started flying the drone back to its take off spot...
