Latest firmware. This question was asked, but without adequate response. "Panorama" Mode was ignoring all manual camera settings. With the aircraft in spherical panorama flight mode -- Manual exposure, manual ISO, manual WB -- the aircraft totally ignored my manual inputs, and overexposing several full panorama captures in a row. Smaller f-stops, faster shutter speeds,,, made no difference. Same exact amount of overexposure, as if it was on auto-exposure, and I was missing a "button" to turn off "auto." Aircraft would do what it wanted, and overexposed the images. As it was for work, I finally shot a manual pano, with all parameters in manual, and capturing all my images needed for the spherical pano, flying manually. "Panorama" Mode was ignoring all manual camera settings. Any solutions?

I recommend contacting Autel, opening a problem ticket, I don't think there is any other solution.

Usually this is from Autel Explorer. What version do you have?
 
Just came to start a thread on this. We have been having this issue with our Enterprise RTK's. It's like it locks the values from the first image and then never compensates. I have even seen it change the settings back after I tried the manual approach.
