YOU ASKED FOR IT AND AUTEL HAS RESPONDED!!! SMART CONTROLLER

Is this forum even moderated? The is nothing about any new Smart Controller yet on the Autel Robotics--official importer for US-- website, nor on the AR YouTube channel. It doesn't appear to have been submitted for FCC approval yet. Months away from production, at least for US versions. So sketchy it's no longer amusing

Yes, it is moderated. It isn't the moderator's job to research every post but to make sure the community guidelines are being followed. That said, if our approved vendor is promoting it then I'd believe it.

If you have a problem with a post not following the community guidelines below then report it and we'll take a look.

As an approved vendor and independent but fellow distributor with Advexure of Autel products. This is not a sham and is 100% real. I do not control FCC approvals nor do we have any involvement on the Autel consumer front-facing website. We expect product delivery in the next few weeks and are promising our clients delivery in the first part of June. product is in transit and orders are being placed.

If @Florida Drone Supply wants to be given any validity as a supplier, you might want to de-spamify your original post and actually address us as the informed audience we are, and not a bunch of marks on eBay.

Just an observation... YMMV

have spoken to 2 different Autel suppliers in Australia, and both have said they will have deliveries mid-May. This is not a sham.
However I must say that Florida Drone Supply "spam" style marketing here doesnt look good for a valid product

Can confirm with Florida Drone Supply that the Smart Controller is real. We are getting our first batch and will begin shipping in May.

I do not think that there are many members that question the validity of the future existance of the hardware itself... however I do not think the same can be said for the sales tactics being employed by the OP.

Yes Sir they responded our request for a smart controller with a break out your American Express Metal Card cost. But I am dumb enough to get one. Hmmmm. Sean at Empire has my card! What up bud??

I’m liking the option to be able to change antennas

Twoheadlines · Apr 24, 2021

Hmmm!
Interesting comments and questions about bona fide pre-order promotions for the smart controller - in the US at least.
If Autel's own promotions had been followed, the immanent launch of this RC unit was being well signalled late last month
My regular supplier of Autel AUV products here in New Zealand has already sold out of his initial supply, shipping this week. Unfortunately for me, I wasn't one of those lucky enough to get my 'first-in-first served' order quick enough, so will have to wait until the next shipment which I understand will be in this country later in May.

Happy and safe flying

autel might have underestimated the demand for this product. let's hope everyone who wants one can get one during round 1.

Yea, I think these companies always underestimate how crazy us drone dudes can be about our tech?

Decided to spend my money on a dji air2s. It's about the same price as this controller.

Anzacjack · May 9, 2021

good plan. But you still wont have a smart controller

Twoheadlines · May 15, 2021

As previously stated in an earlier post, I missed out on getting in an order from my supplier's first shipment at the end of March. Got confirmation on Thursday my pre-order from the second shipment will be here in the first week of June.
I did play around with the idea of putting the money I would be paying for the new smart controller towards a Dual 640T, which comes with the same controller unit. However, I'm also using my UAVs and ROV for business, so when my head started taking control of my heart (wanna have, gotta have) I couldn't honestly justify the capital expense of a whole new system, against the work I foresee being able to do for a while yet. ?

Happy and safe flying ??

Who has seen or recieved the now late to the party Autel smart controller?

Anzacjack · May 31, 2021

yes very interested on seeing or reading about experiences while i wait for mine. Surely if second batch is due this week, the first batch should already be in the wild.
