Settings don't save?

tundrawolf · Oct 19, 2022

Hi,

I have the Autel Evo 2 Pro and I have it updated to the latest software, and all the batteries I have too.

I am rather annoyed that every time I power the system down, then back up, the settings I inputted, do not save, mainly the marker and bottom lights, possibly the gimbal limit, and others... Is there something wrong with the software or do I have to set those settings every single time I want to fly? Is there a way for it to save all the settings?

Its pretty common, there are a long list of settings that do not save. I have nearly the original FW from 2021 and the exact same thing happens. I guess we are expected to just be grateful that we can turn the lights off at all. I have posted here a long list of other quirks you may run into as you use the drone more.

You may have to update both Firmware and Software-- there was a not-saving bug that was fixed more than a year ago

This ^^^^, concur, there were many different settings that were not persistent, most were fixed and made persistent except for the bottom light. The bottom light still does not persist to the last setting, granted its just another step to remember to do before takeoff, however its a PITA when doing lots of back to back flights.

What a great write up you did, thank you!
