No update from me sadly, I sold my Evo 2.

Yeah I’d have avoided upgrading however it’s the new Apple phone, so it ships with this version of iOS. Was just curious if anyone else had sudden app crashes.

That definitely could be the case. My drone was a pile of crap from day 1. Firmware update after firmware update, either applying via OTA or SD card flash, didn’t fix it. It was still a terrible flying expensive drone. Then Autel apparently simply reflashed my drones firmware using their...

Got the new iPhone 14 Pro Max with iOS 16, and went to fly my Evo 2 Pro V2 with it for the first time. 3 times in a row the phone crashed, randomly during flight, causing a hard reboot of the phone. After the phone booted back up I could get it to connect again for a few seconds to a minute...

I’ll say that I have my gripes about the performance of my E2Pv2 but when I needed to get the drone inspected because it was obviously broken: I called them on their support phone number, they made a ticket, and started a repair request. I mailed the drone in, they fixed it, and I got it back...

Did you have it following you on some technical wooded trails or was it more open-air single track? I’d love to take mine out on some technical mountain bike trails but im convinced it’ll smash into a tree or vegetation in about 10 seconds. The good news with DJI is that you can add DJI care...

The mini 3 is a solid performing drone for sure, very powerful for such a tiny device. Unfortunately, 2 days after getting it I crashed it and broke the gimbal while trying to get closer to some wasp activity on my roof line. Luckily it’s a cheap replacement with DJI Care at least :)

Hey folks, I just got my Evo 2 Pro back from Autel for warranty work, turns out I had a bad firmware flash which fixed most of my complaints — after a year of whining about the drone it actually flies without disconnecting. I’m pleasantly surprised with their US support team. However now I’m...

Today my Evo 2 Pro disconnected from my RC, refused to land or reconnect, and hovered 12’ above the ground for 30 minutes until the battery died and it crashed into the ground. So watch out for that lol.

😄 the video is beautiful when it works, that’s true. Of course my methods of sharing the beautiful video include Instagram which compresses it down to potato quality anyway, but it does look good prior to uploading. My drone may have more half-baked features, I paid 44x what he did, and I don’t...

Just want to rant a bit, but this $2200 Autel Evo 2 Pro V2 is hands down the worst drone I've ever owned. Lets begin with 45 minutes ago: I had to stand around like a dummy while I waited for my Evos battery to die because the RC disconnected from the drone and refused to reconnect -- instead...

I always find these posts funny. It’s trivial to see if your device is sending network traffic. Free tools such as WireShark and tcpdump enable this. When I was an engineer at Amazon it became exhausting to constantly have conversations with family/friends/acquaintances who said “you know...

Can echo your guys experiences. I’ve had 2 brand new Evo 2 Pro V2 devices that lose connection when just feet away. I’ve gotten the dreaded “Connecting…” with my drone 10 feet in front of me and 8 feet off the ground while landing. Only fix has been to power cycle the controller. It’s...

Hey folks, Resident complainer here :) Curious if any of you use Airdata to look at your Evo 2 flights? And if so, are you seeing really poor signal on the signal map -- specifically with the V2 drone? I ask because my new, just opened Evo 2 Pro V2 -- which is almost always at 4/5 OR LESS...

Didn't mean to delete it. On my screen at least it's right above your previous reply -- comment #12. But thanks for the feedback on the Air 2S and the differences! I've had the Air 2S sitting on my desk for a while, but haven't taken it out of the box to fly yet as I'm debating returning it...
