Problems with case and antenna

[Edwinpilot]

Hi pilots I writing from Peru
I got an autel evo in an auction, however this when I arrive I present 2 damages.
1- The right and left sides of the case were cracked.
2- The control antennas were broken.

i just looking on internet if I can find a new case to replace also a antenas.
Do yo know where I can find the case? Also do you recommend to chance de antenas to a 4 hawks? How much increase de signal?

thanks
Edwin

Autel Robotics does not provide warranty to Perú. You will have to cover the costs for shipping. Your best bet is to install the antennas you purchased and continue flying. Like Franlac said, the cracks on the side are not structural and should not give you any troubles.

Yes that why I buy the drone, to share with friends about a autel evo.
Well since I have to use the drone tomorrow I find a guy than print on 3D, he made this for me



I guess it’s working good, the only that I think is that we have to put a needle, I don’t know If this make interference or make problems.

I also need a recommendation, should I buy the hucam antenna or 4 hawks antenna. The difference is for 100$ but I don’t know if the result is the same or diferent.

thanks

If you put a pin, make sure it's not made out of metal. As for the antennas, it really is up to you. If you are interester in bidirectional range, then get the 4hawks. If you want omnidirectional range, then get the hucam. I find that the default antennas get plenty of range. I do suggest you read up in current drone laws of Perú.

Thanks, the pin I use is made for metal. What will be the problems with this?
which is best bi or omni?

 

[Ansia]

Metal might reduce range of signal.

Omni

 

[Edwinpilot]

Metal might reduce range of signal.

Omni

O fly today, on 130m of altitud and 800m oc distance I lose signal

A piece of hardwood toothpick or a small fiberglass rod (found on DIY or kite sites).
Otherwise the best solution, an 8 Dbi antenna graft (or 10 Dbi as I put on mine) more solid and you can remove to slide in the bag. (I only remove one of them, the other can remain vertical)

I repair the antenas with this, the are 2 pice that take the antennas
