EVO 2 Spares

[bluesti]

Just crashed my evo 2 whilst in ludicrous mode. Split a set of props, minor scratches across drone body and scratches across lens of left hand side vision system. It still seemed to fly ok, but now its hesitant to go forward, so not sure if system is damaged.

Can I get replacement lens?
Can I use after market props from another make, such as DJI?

Live in Oz so spares and props are difficult to come by.

It appears your drone is suffering from PTSD.

On a serious note, try calibrating your remote controller. As for the rest, you can only get them directly from Autel.

Thank you Ansia. I will try recalibrating. It took over a month to get my drone from Us, so purchasing new props and lens will be another long wait.

Not necessarily. The drones are in backorder, but not propellers. I am unsure about lens cap. I haven't seen they sell it for the Evo 1 or XSP.

Just an idea you can try. I know my Evo 1 hesitates when the visual avoidance is on. If the sun is out its makes visual avoidance useless for the most part. If your facing the sun or anything reflective. The drone will hesitate before slowly moving foward. Try turning it off but be careful as your drone will hit stuff now and won't stop itself.

Ok, will try that PX1P. I'm in Perth so, sun is out most days. I took it out for a spin today and again noticed it hesitate going forward but does not hesitate going backwards.

I also checked calibration and got all the ticks.

Yes more than likely thats the issu. I can be 350 ft up nothing in sight and my evo tells.me something is 20ft in front of me.. just turn the avoidance off leave the radar on.. that way it wont stop you but will still warn you. Good luck. I sooo wish I had and evo 2. But glad i have evo 1 at all!

Autel will not sell any replacement parts. Exception is propellas.

Tried it again with OA turned off and hesitation has stopped, boy is it quick.
