Updated app version

Andrzej · Oct 25, 2020

It looks there is regression in this version: EXP setting for Forward/Right is always set to 0.5. Whatever I enter there after I exit configuration and come back, it's back to 0.5:

Firmware 2.5.11. I cleared all data, reinstalled the app, it's still there. Any one else experiencing the same issue?

Thanks for confirmation. There is also a typo in another place. Autel support responded promptly:

Thank you for letting us know. Im happy to get this information sent off to our engineers to resolve prior to the public release. I have confirmed both issues on my device as well so it is repeatable.

A nice bunch of bug fixes in this one

Is the iOS version not available yet? TestFlight still shows v1.7.5 when I checked even using the link under Beta Testing on Autel’s website. I tried the Android version and it was glitchy for me.

there is a bug in Autel Explorer 1.7.18 (latest beta for android) in IMU calibration. Steps 5 and 6 show the same orientation with 'face' up, while step 5 should be 'face' down. just updated both explorer and firmware. had to check youtube after a few failures.

Awesome that now app communicating all actions like landing protection on, landing repositioning, unsafe to land etc.

charmin · Dec 19, 2020

Awesome.... ! embarrassing more like it... just loaded 1.7.18 and now it is asking me to revert back to last version... and yes the IMU calibration is incorrect plus the EXP still does not save the settings... I havent even had a chance to try anything else... pathetic.

I have defended Autel until now but this is all to much, as I have said before, more time loading and removing, software, sorting apps and firmware than flying, a total disgrace. It also seems that Autel are very relaxed about all this and don't really seem to care. I have always said to people, yes I would recommend but never again, if this cost me a few hundred pounds then fine, but this was almost 2K pounds.....
Someone needs to stop sitting around their desk eating do-nuts and get their act together and also sack the software developer, whom clearly isn't.
I agree this is a beta but even so, someone should at least try it, is there no QC software control...

YES! ^THIS! I whole heartedly agree! EVERY firmware they have released has been riddled with issues. Every time I have spoken to CS on the phone, they have been very nonchalant or dismissive. I have called with questions about various issues or functionality and they couldn’t even provide an answer to some questions about their own product. Just so disappointing. I have only had my EVO II since March and I have a laundry list worth of experienced issues and it has already been sent in to Autel once. What a hassle!

Hey! Look! Another Autel FW fail!

Wish I would have known this before I downloaded the app beta from Autels page lol now I can’t fly my evo2p because it’s been updated to the beta and the beta on the app is 1.7.5!! It turns on and gimbal works and taking pictures, but motors won’t start up and get a

Yeah! Pure garbage on Autel’s part! You wanna know the best part about it? When I called Autel to ask about the iOS Beta link only showing the current public version, their own customer service representative didn’t even know a thing about it and kept telling me that I had to use the link on the website. I told him I was and then he continued to tell me that there must be a problem with my phone or computer! Their own customer service representatives don’t even know what’s going on!
