Autel's Cloud

LeafPeeper · Aug 1, 2019

I'll admit to not doing a search on this one - not sure what terms to use. Does anyone use Autel's cloud for flight records? If so, are there any details on what it stores and backs up? I'm finding it hard to live with the Evo without the logs and flight records I have on Airdata with my DJI drones. I love being able to get details on battery health, flight times, battery usage, etc. - so I can cycle my batteries evenly. Does Autel's cloud record storage record battery serial numbers for each flight?

I only use the controller to fly my Evo. It never record any log or details to the cloud. I rather keep the privacy of it.

Then why did you even bother to respond! Geez!

(just kidding btw)

It does give you information about the flight and battery percentage, but I don't think it gives you battery serial number. I suggest either you check them individually inside the Explorer app or keep a written log.

Until Autel makes the actual log file readable and usable in Airdata the information is very limited. With the older XSP's we actually where able to extract the whole log file that gave you all the information for each cell on the battery during flight. It would not be that hard for them to do this again for the EVO.

Battery percentage will remain frozen in the flight log at the last battery percentage, after any signal loss resulting in RTH. Autel called it a glitch, but it happens every time, even on the latest FW and latest app versions.

Here is a short video of what information is provided in the flight logs.

Can you confirm that the flight logs stop recording the battery percentage after signal loss, leaving it frozen at the last value before signal loss, by turning the RC off in a short flight, such that the green battery percentage remains frozen, even after turning the RC back on, to restore signal and cancel RTH for the remaining duration of the flight?

It is raining today, but when I get the chance, I will.

I don't understand your post. Can you expand what you meant by "Autel called it a glitch" What is the "it"?

Yeah this looks like what is on stored on the phone after each flight. I'm asking what goes to the cloud - unless that's it. I was hoping for more flight details like battery serial number, voltages, all control details and warnings, etc....like DJI. Apparently that stuff doesn't get logged to their cloud...

That's all that get's stored. No personal data.

You do have to set up an account in order to use the cloud storage of your flight logs, and you then register your aircraft to that account, so there is as much personal data as you choose to give them.
