So, so sad Autel. This just takes the cake. If you have kept up with any part of my story with my 4T you will know the hell that Autel has put me through. Again, loved the droneā¦even above the M30T by yesā¦DJI. Butā¦.it so ends there once there is an issue. So after a few months, Autel finally gave up running me around as I had the Better Business Bureau on the case for me also. I did get a, what appeared to be a brand new 4t XE rugged bundle. Of course itās a bit subpar to the 4t, but itās a fresh start. I didnt even unbox it and wanted to sell it immediately to get the best money for it unopened. Well, apparently people are paying attention because I didnt even get a bite at almost any price. So, I get an inkling to test this new ride out. Couldnāt help myself. Put it up, and it felt great. I was like a kid on Xmas day. My joy had returned kind ofā¦until a warning came up. āentering low consumption mode, and the thermal camera is turned offā. Ok, wow, new feature, battery was a bit low so I get it. Take it home and today, a few days later put a fresh battery inā¦SAME WARNING. Ok, there is something new im not aware of they have added. Canāt find it anywhere though. So, me and my good friends get back in touchā¦autel personnel, tech support. I ask calmly what that was all about, and wouldnāt you know they give me the, thatās a bug they are looking to put out a firmware update for, should be out maybe in the next ew weeks hopefully but for sure the end of next month. What in the heck is going on at Autel. I JUST DONT GET IT. So, here I am again, going to be waiting another few months for this miraculous firmware update that will fix this issueā¦.and mess up four more things with this new and improved drone. Please people, weigh your options on this one. If you can get this thing cheap, go for it. Or if you even have someone local that knows the ins and outs and can repair them. Go for it. Otherwise, stay the hell away. If you are going to pay the tariff prices, get the DJI for your minds sake.
