i'll list mine as i found them.. Evo II 640 dual V3 with 7.9 SC

1st OTA attempt, i lost the spotlight, and loudspeaker was distorted and strobe we erratic to say the least

2nd re-install from SD, speaker and strobe recovered but no still spotlight and options for each did not refresh from screen, showing speaker options when the strobe was plugged in..

3rd re-install from SD, speaker ok now, strobe ok now, still no spotlight, accessory options still show on screen but refresh when each accessory is plugged in.. no more speaker options with the strobe and vice versa, but last accessory remains on screen until i shut off the controller...

i found out a few days ago the custom C button controls options have been demoted back to a single C button control instead of the dual C buttons the 7.9 is suppose to have

and today i found out the controller isnt logging in to show my devices and dont know if it logged this past weekends flights.. and yes, internet connectiopn has been confirmed... several times.. confirming connected via settings before trying to access user profile on start up screen...

so im grounding it until autel, or we can help each other here somehow....

also worth mentioning.. the July update was the last functions test and everything worked great.. no accessories were used after those function tests..

THIS 11/2024 update created these issues for mine..

1] Why you post a EVO II V3 Question in the EVO II Dual section.
2] Based on the information given, no-one will be able to give you a adequate answer because of missing firmware versions / Explorer app version and Android system version.

sorry brother.. i updated my original post..
i have a 640 dual..

as far as the versions.. i updated to the most recent november 2024 versions..
 
I updated yesterday and did a short test flight today and my aircraft - V3 RTK seems good so far. I need to take it for a longer spin for a more complete check out. No complaints .
 
another issue came to light after this original post..

im getting amber flashes in the nav light sequence.. red/green, then amber/green, the red/green and repeat till i reboot drone and SC.. its a hot and miss.. did it twice in about 12 reboots

independent of GPS signal and WiFi connection...

Autel has been quick to respond and jump on this.. ( Thanks Joe!!)

has requested the usual info, pic of software and firmware versions, and i sent them video and pics of whats going on..

fingers crossed
 
thanks for the insight.. but its not that simple.. i read the manual too...

all the calibrations were done several times during the several firmware/software re-installs when the problems started after the update, and as i mentioned.. its twice in 12 that itll do what i recorded and at the same time, its connected to the drone and showing everything is good, compass, gps, all signals 100%..

and no.. no magnets near it, can reboot it in the exact same location and it wont do it again, first time it did it i was outside, second time is in the video

tip top drone goes haywire after an update so i gave up and waiting for Autel

i even had thermal cam freezing in full screen, but that went away after the last re-install of the aircraft firmware.. but all other problems are still here
