Hi Guys,
I was curious what Evo problems still remain. My biggest was the horizon tilt. It looks like that was fixed but can't tell if it's "just better than before" or 100% resolved.
Next is the other issue of the camera moving by itself - "the jittery effect". Is that also 100% resolved? Was it only on those Evos that were running the beta version of the FW? I saw the video when OriginalDobo had it on the ground and it was moving all by itself.
Stuttery footage when yawing. I've looked at a lot of YT videos and in many, you can see the video skipping or stuttering from frame to frame. It's as if someone had a slow SD card. I was curious if that's happening to all Evos.
Rear Sensors - Some are saying that in a specific mode, they will stop the Evo. Others are saying that it will never stop the drone. That the rear sensors were never designed to stop the Evo, only to beep and only when you're "very, very close" to an object. Could someone please give me the real and honest answer?
Fail safe question.. Is it true that when you get to 15% that the Evo will land where it is? That there is no way to nurse it to a safe landing spot?
I really hate the fact that you get props in the shot (upper left). That has bugged me even more that the tilted horizon. I knew that if they put more effort into the tilted horizon issue, it could be fixed with FW. Didn't they notice the props when they were testing? I'm assuming that no FW update ever could fix the prop issue. So do you agree that in order to avoid the prop you must point the gimbal down and that there is no other way around it? I saw a video that suggested that shooting in 24 FPS you don't get props - is that true?
Battery Life - Many have said you need to cycle the batteries about 10 times to get the most flight time. What's the longest you've been able to keep your Evo in the air without damaging your batteries? Is it anywhere near the 30 minutes Autel claims? Let's assume there was only one political party for the planet, the planets were perfectly aligned, the wind Gods were asleep, there was no such thing as stupidity, common sense was built into every human's DNA, pets could talk, money didn't exist and it was ok to fly drones any where as long as you respected others, there was no just thing as male pattern baldness (did I forget something???) - in other words - everything was PERFECT. Has anyone gotten close to 30 minutes?
Lastly, how many of you that already own one have any regrets?
Why Autel didn't have all these issues resolved before they launched is completely baffling to me. Nevertheless, I guess it is what it is.
I know these are a lot of questions and I will without a doubt buy one. I just wanted to wait until all these issues got resolved first. Not sort of resolved, but completely resolved.
Thanks guys
