Hyperlapse on Evo ll

Bob Marquiss · Nov 12, 2020

I tried several hyperlapses with the Evo ll today and wasn't able to get the drone to fly even though I tried changing speeds between attempts. I started with 2 mph, 4 mph and I was only able to manually control speed, but that doesn't make for a very smooth hyperlapse. Is anybody else having this problem or have any suggestions on what I need to do? Thanks for any input.

I tried hyperlaps for the first time too. It seems that the speed setting is for maximum speed limit. The drone just sits there taking pictures. I give it full forward .....or reverse stick and it won't go any faster than the speed setting.
I would rather have the programming drive the drone rather than me holding the stick. I have done hypers 20 minutes long before.

Thanks for replying. I moved stick forward to see if it would gain speed, but never tried to move to see if it flew only to max speed. I will have to try it again and see what I can do to get a smooth flight.

Autel's implementation of Hyperlapse is almost worthless. Straight ahead only with no way to yaw for side angle shots.

You can go in reverse as well. I didn't try sideways....yet.
But I agree....Aeroranger has a better hyperlapse for DJI drones.

Camera points straight ahead!

Aeroranger - license plate recognition by drone?

Bobstaff · Nov 14, 2020

Ya licence plate recognition seems to be the biggest part of their business, but they have a pretty good mission planning app for DJI drones too.

Thanks Bobstaff ?

Autel should rethink hyperlapse. It is poor.
It also should be an option to add hyperlapse to mission.

They might need to rework missions a bit first to make it really useful, not having smooth/spline waypoints and the goofy way altitude changes happen are pretty limiting...

Altitude changes are corrected for the new firmware and software. Here are a coupla videos which show it is now a smooth up from starting altitude to finish altitude.
