if you'd have been here last year when the community started, oh lord!
[2018-07-27 12:50:22]
hostile :
nice to have you around brother.
[2018-07-27 12:53:10]
aciid :
thanks, you were an inspiration to me man. I looked up to you, ever since last year . When i got my company's MP I felt like you guys are gods doing blackmagic.
I've been into netsec for three years seriously, so this just tasted like a summer vacation thing to get back into.
[2018-07-27 12:53:36]
aciid :
just seeing how great the community is holding up its someones job to make an impact to the vendors.
[2018-07-27 13:03:22]
aciid :
oh wtf this rootfs is a firmware for a whole LTE router
[2018-07-27 13:03:28]
aciid :
none of the drone things are here
[2018-07-27 13:03:38]
aciid :
well keeping digging
[2018-07-27 13:03:48]
aciid :
flying router is a true term now
[2018-07-27 13:09:47]

[2018-07-27 13:13:04]

@fredz I just cracked the passwords from the drone. I don't know does it have SSH up default
[2018-07-27 13:32:28]
aciid :
root password is: cautel
[2018-07-27 13:40:38]
hostile :
lol
[2018-07-27 13:40:43]
hostile :
paste the shadow file?
[2018-07-27 13:40:52]
hostile :
I'l like to see the hash, and rest of shit
[2018-07-27 13:41:17]
hostile :
they used to run PX4 autopilot for what it is worth
[2018-07-27 13:41:20]
hostile :
I doubt they changed
[2018-07-27 13:41:33]
aciid :
[2018-07-27 13:41:59]
hostile :
the a8sdk password should be a8me
[2018-07-27 13:43:16]
hostile :
oh hah I see you cracked it above
[2018-07-27 13:43:25]
hostile :
DJI uses that same password on the camera's
[2018-07-27 13:43:38]
hostile :
you can hit them over USB networking
[2018-07-27 13:43:58]
aciid :
I still can't recognize is this the ambarella firmware or not
[2018-07-27 13:44:05]
aciid :
it has a ton of ambarella binaries and scripts tho
[2018-07-27 13:44:14]
aciid :
and wifi scripts
[2018-07-27 13:46:05]
hostile :
just ambarella soc to serve as linux "companion computer" for the px4
[2018-07-27 13:46:18]
hostile :
there should be stm32 / px4 firmware somewhere
[2018-07-27 13:46:33]
hostile :
is there a /etc/firmware folder? on the image?
[2018-07-27 13:47:02]
aciid :
<https://bpaste.net/show/1b13c82ae499>
[2018-07-27 13:48:48]
aciid :
but most importantly I think this firmware can tell us litte more about Anafi
[2018-07-27 13:49:02]
aciid :
even tho this is Ambarella H2 and Anafi is H22
[2018-07-27 13:49:15]
aciid :
just maybe the firmwareupdater bin can be botched
[2018-07-27 13:53:03]
hostile :
grep parrot . -ri at the root of the fs
[2018-07-27 13:53:09]
hostile :
look for parrots changed code
[2018-07-27 14:52:11]
fredz :
I’ll try @aciid tonight
[2018-07-27 14:52:33]
fredz :
Using WiFi from the computer ?
[2018-07-27 15:00:10]
aciid :
@fredz yes, can you also nmap the drone
[2018-07-27 17:35:35]
quad808 :
@aciid My skillset is not the greatest, so you will need to spoon feed me what you want me to do when I get home and can mess with the EVO
[2018-07-27 17:36:45]
quad808 :
we have some serious time differences though
[2018-07-27 17:37:24]
quad808 :
I feel sickness coming on...might just have to ditch early today
[2018-07-27 17:39:21]
aciid :
you need to connect your PC / Laptop to same wifi as EVO
[2018-07-27 17:39:30]
aciid :
then nmap the drone IP
[2018-07-27 17:43:59]
quad808 :
then?
[2018-07-27 17:44:30]
quad808 :
I can get that setup in about 3 hours when I get home
[2018-07-27 17:44:49]
quad808 :
can do a remote session too if you want
[2018-07-27 17:45:01]
aciid :
if theres an SSH server running try logging in with
user: root
password: cautel
[2018-07-27 17:45:14]
aciid :
theres dropbear binary in the firmware and configs
[2018-07-27 17:45:22]
aciid :
can't tell if its started or not in your firmware and dont know does it even work like we think. welcome to being a tester
[2018-07-27 17:45:27]
quad808 :
k
[2018-07-27 18:16:38]
fredz :
Sorry @aciid won’t be able to do it tonight

or do you have already?
[2018-07-27 22:42:47]
quad808 :

[2018-07-27 22:42:57]
aciid :
oh ok
[2018-07-27 22:43:08]
quad808 :
did some scans, but nada, found ports
[2018-07-27 22:43:27]
aciid :
you were connected to the drone itself correctly and not to say remote?
[2018-07-27 22:43:36]
quad808 :
connected device shows up as MTP
[2018-07-27 22:43:45]
quad808 :
correct, via USB
[2018-07-27 22:43:45]
aciid :
thas wrong
[2018-07-27 22:43:58]
aciid :
can you connect to the drone via WIFI
[2018-07-27 22:44:05]
quad808 :
ahhhh, k
[2018-07-27 22:44:07]
aciid :
say like to mavic pro
[2018-07-27 22:44:10]
aciid :
with phone WIFI
[2018-07-27 22:44:15]
aciid :
but connect your PC
[2018-07-27 22:44:16]
quad808 :
hang on
[2018-07-27 22:44:17]
aciid :
via WIFI
[2018-07-27 22:44:18]
aciid :
to drone
[2018-07-27 22:44:26]
aciid :
you need a wireless adapter or a laptop with wifi
[2018-07-27 22:44:35]
quad808 :
gotta bust out my laptop
[2018-07-27 22:45:13]
aciid :
yeah
[2018-07-27 22:46:39]
quad808 :
install nmap on it?
[2018-07-27 22:46:44]
aciid :
yup same thing
[2018-07-27 22:46:56]
aciid :
you need to connect to the drone via WIFI to scan the ports
[2018-07-27 22:46:58]
aciid :
d'oh :smile:
[2018-07-27 22:47:09]
aciid :
also keep the other PC as is, so you can be on slack
[2018-07-27 22:47:15]
quad808 :
figured doh
[2018-07-27 22:52:27]
quad808 :
dumb question...I should be able to detect the wifi of the drone, right?
[2018-07-27 22:53:05]
aciid :
does the drone have WIFI at all?
[2018-07-27 22:53:16]
aciid :
does the app say that you can connect to it via phone for example?
[2018-07-27 22:53:23]
aciid :
like DJI products have
[2018-07-27 22:53:27]
aciid :
so you don't need remote control
[2018-07-27 22:53:35]
quad808 :
I am pretty sure you need to be connected via otg
[2018-07-27 22:53:42]
quad808 :
never read the manual...LOL
[2018-07-27 22:53:57]
aciid :
I've gone through the filesystem today, and its 100% sure that the drone has wifi
[2018-07-27 22:54:07]
quad808 :
can use controller by itself or with phone, but otg cable
[2018-07-27 22:54:44]
aciid :
so did you scan the networks
[2018-07-27 22:54:47]
aciid :
does it show up
[2018-07-27 22:55:05]
quad808 :
no show
[2018-07-27 22:55:09]
quad808 :
on wifi
[2018-07-27 22:55:14]
aciid :
I think I cant help you if this can't be figured out. it requires some fiddling to find it
[2018-07-27 22:55:21]
aciid :
like KALILINUX
[2018-07-27 22:55:41]
quad808 :
nope, but now worries, I will wack at it a bit
[2018-07-27 22:56:28]
quad808 :
wouldn't the RC connect to it via wifi?
[2018-07-27 22:56:40]
aciid :
yeah no problem, I just think that it's easier for you not to get frustrated
[2018-07-27 22:56:45]
aciid :
yes
[2018-07-27 22:56:56]
aciid :
thats why the wifi exists but it's hidden
[2018-07-27 22:57:06]
quad808 :
ahhh gotcha
[2018-07-27 23:00:31]
quad808 :
lets do this...once I figure it out, I will ping you back

@quad808 you have an Evo?
[2018-07-28 20:08:24]
quad808 :
@fredz yep, just got it
[2018-07-28 20:14:35]
quad808 :
Here is my DOH! EVO story of the day. Since I didn't read the stupid manual/pdf, I take the EVO out yesterday to do some test runs. Turn everything on, looks good. Wait for sats. All good. Hit the auto take off button. INVALID COMMAND. WTF? Try again. Same thing. Crap, not working. Take off manually...all seems good. Hit takeoff/land button while in air, turns on landing, all good. Land. Hit the auto take off button again. Same INVALID COMMAND. Pissed. Fly again, goes into ATTI mode, WTH...f'ing LEMON. Fly a bit more, reconnects to GPS...(was showing 15 sats)... Now comes to today. Go outside to test the auto take off button again, after reflashing firmware. (nothing flashed, since it is current and updated) Same INVALID COMMAND. WTF. Manually arm. What if I push the auto take off button now? FUCKING WORKS. I AM AN IDIOT. YOU HAVE TO ARM FIRST. :grimacing:
[2018-07-28 20:27:09]
aciid :
someone should start making progres for evo
[2018-07-28 20:31:39]
solution :
Evo is not DJI. Start Motors than press Auto take off. Works Great
[2018-07-28 23:01:49]
quad808 :
Now you tell me...LOL
[2018-07-29 07:21:09]
fredz :
@quad808 Haha when I got my Evo I thought mine was defective because of the invalid command shit! I had to read the darn manual just to take off!!
[2018-07-30 10:18:26]
aciid :
[2018-07-30 15:04:47]
fredz :
Buy it from Carolinadronz
[2018-07-30 15:04:59]
fredz :
They sent it to me in Europe for much less than that
[2018-07-30 15:05:59]
fredz :
And for a declared value of $10 so no customs...
[2018-07-30 15:07:39]
fredz :
@aciid I can’t seem to connect by WiFi to the Evo itself
[2018-07-30 15:08:09]
aciid :
no WPA key found?
[2018-07-30 15:08:21]
aciid :
or is it custom wifi protocol?

Info from the serial connections are scrambled I did find a hidden WiFi switch but haven't done any testing to see if any ports are open.

lukappaseidue :
On the autelpilot group a boy tried to do some tests on the AUTEL EXPLORER application, creating an integrative application where to modify some parameters including SET FCC and also the possibility to select the "old" 900mhz.
But it did not work; as if the firmware rejected the change requests from the application.
I do as tester for him
And then we should understand when the drone is in FCC and when instead in CE. On autel explorer there is no known line above or below -90DBM to check if it is in CE or FCC

With latest AUTEL EXPLORER release (both iOS and ANDROID) Autel robotics lowered the altitude from 800 meters to 500 meters. So the limitation is by APP and not by FW (at now) I hope that some GURU guys will be able to hack the app to resume the ALTITUDE to 800 meters (pheraps also the FCC?)

luckily the height limit had been lowered from 800 meters to 500 only via application: and now with the beta it has been brought back to 800. So I think it is at application level and not firmware level.
I really hope that a system can be found to put it in FCC also in CE areas. You who have it, you could try with FAKE GPS or FLOATER, with the method for the MAVIC 2
[2020-05-15 06:55:51]

Both EVO I and EVO II seem to have both 2.4ghz and 900mhz. This last frequency was later turned off. The first versions of EVO I, for example, had it and then subsequently disabled it. I don't know, though, if they have made any changes to the hardware in the meantime

lukappaseidue :
It is also necessary to understand if the hardware that manages the 900mhz frequency has been removed.
There is the empirical possibility of forcing it via software, but on a latest generation AUTEL EVO 1, this modification has created some difficulties in the association between radio control and drone. It should be understood if the block is on the firmware or the 900mhz frequency is missing
[2020-05-24 15:29:57]

[2020-06-14 20:40:13]
quad808 :
ahhh....here is what I did...I bought the antenna mod for the Mavic Pro from Titan and used that for the antennas. Here is the problem with this. The hole for the Evo Antennas is bigger than for the Mavic Pro, so I used JB weld epoxy on the connections to hold them in place on the RC. The distance between the antennas are slightly less than the Mavic Pro, so the Titan quick connect adapter will not fit with the pre-drilled holes. I had to re-drill the holes closer to make it fit. Then, because the holes were moved closer to the quick connect part, I had to shave down one side, so you can still rotate and connect and disconnect the amps. Little bit of work, but it works great! I may do the same for the EVO II RC, depending on how reception is. You know how heavy this is, so if you look at the pic above, you will see where I connected a lanyard. This is great and balances the whole thing very well, so your arms don't get tired holding everything up.

for anyone wondering about the Alientech boosted 2.4ghz antenna system for the Evo, I tested it. Crap. Not sure what the issue is...I returned it, but bought the un-amped Alientech antenna. You would probably be better off using the 4 hawks since it is a better setup for the Evo RC. The problem is the spacing of the EVO RC Antenna. For a system like the Titan drones, it you add the t-lock, its fine, but you can't just connect the Alientech directly to the RC antennas..the antennas are too close together and the Alientech antenna connection is spaced for DJI drones RC. You can put the Alientech directly on the Titan drones setup though.

At one time i had both and i hate to say it but the FPVLR offered no advantage to the knockoffs... (measure or pratical range test)

And they are smoother in terms of directional dependency compared to some of the flat panels i tried. I nevr had a direct compare to 4Hawks SR though...
I also try to stay away from powered Antennas...

if i need an amp i daisychain them myself.
[2020-06-16 07:24:22]

I also shy away from the 4hawks as there is an additional plug in between, wanting to minimize connections.
But i do not really know if a **good** 10cm pigtail UFL --> RP-SMA offers measurable advantages to the "2 cable, 3 connections" Solution of 4 Hawks, do you guys KNOW if its just a thing in my Head or if it would significanly reduce performance / SNR ?

Here's my MP & M2P non boosted/amp set up on a Itelite Nanosync antenne which I use frequently. I also can hook up to 2W Sunhans for better if I needed to. Been using tge non boosted to breach the hard cided limit of both AC.

@mel69hash do you have a link / exact name for those easy-to-plug pigtails & converters to rp-SMA? IF you all seem to agree that the additional connectors do not have a significant impact on SNR...

@quad808 i guess 10cm pigtails will do then, right? 15cm is overdone?! Or what do you say?

Here you go. I initially used a RP SMA connection on both my DJI drones and now I switch to QMA for easy snap on and off for both. I'm gg to fo it to Evo too but Evo distance between RC antenna is slightly closer hence require a little diy.

Hmm, damn it looks as if "normal" pigtails could not be used (not much space) and one would need those super slim 90 degree angled ones, do you guys agree?
[2020-06-16 16:53:31]
quad808 :
Just beware that the t-lock is very tight to get locked, due to the antennas being closer. I may shave a bit on one side of the t-lock on the amp side to provide more room to easily twist on and off.
[2020-06-16 16:58:23]
quad808 :
Thats a good question. I don't know how long they were in the kit I used, but even if too long, there is lots of room to figure out a path for them in the RC. Check out the picture on 4 hawks....seem pretty short to me. I ordered a 4 hawks, so if you can wait I can tell you when it gets is. Oh and the connectors, the snap ons? Great. Easy to use and I have noticed any difference in performance.

I do not know if i can restrain myself from opening it on the weekend but i definately would love to hear from your experience.

quad808 :
What I did was use a kit from Titan designed for the Mavic Pro, so the antenna leads, the part that sticks out of the RC, at the top, were a bit too small for the opening. Because I use the Titan t-lock system, I needed to figure out a way to secure the antenna leads, so I used JB Weld epoxy and secured them that way. They aren't going anywhere...LOL. Opening the remote is dead simple. Watch this video: <https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfP3Womip94&t=278s>

Well until now i had no time for a long(er) range test of the EVO2... Have to say i am impressed!
I am in CE-Land here and i assume the EVO2 conforms to the max EIRP (did anyone of you have the chance to measure?!).
And although i plan to change that i am on stock Antenna.
I flew and flew and flew... and chickened out at 4.2 km as i started with 60% battery (i did not expect to come this far on CE power) and had a strong tailwind so i tried to be on the safe side... I overdid it as i returned with 20% battery but i do not know this bird so good yet. On Anafi i regularly returned with < 5% fighting against RTH & Autoland :slightly_smiling_face:
Even at max distance (max as i chickened out, not because reception was bad9 i had 4 or 5 bars signal.
This was under near-perfect conditions: dry, 100m Altitude, very rural, maybe a house every 500m. It does not get MUCH more rural here :wink:
I did fly at 20 Mhz video trandsmission, had some "weak signal" messages when flying on 5Mhz. Is thus to be expected? I would have "thought" the more narrow the bandwidth the further it goes, or did i get that one wrong on the EVO2?
Nevertheless: IMPRESSED and very happy!

It seems that the guy ha an issue with very low RTH speed, causing the landing on the sea.
I suggest to safely test this: Hit RTH Button and check the RTH speed... with drone not to far from you and NOT IN THE SEA

@quad808 well you can always give it back!
But the performance might not be up to the task and many "no name" Tablets have a very bad codec pack which often ends up with a bad / black videostream.

Thats great range for an Evo drone. My Evo 1 couldn't go near that distance, and I haven't tested the Evo II yet for range. I need to just go out and do it, despite the windy conditions, just got to be aware of the direction of the wind.
[2020-06-21 20:11:46]
ender :
yep, i mostly chickened as i started with tailwind. Again: i did not expect it to perform that great but as i lost an anafi last year exatly because of this (returning 3,5km over the baltic see, brown out 20m in front of me in 50cm deep water, lol) i am slightly wiser now. It looked as it could have gone much further but maybe the "bars" go fast WHEN they start dropping.

[2020-06-21 20:17:55]

dito, but for anafi as an example i needed to block the signal until near extiction THEN it stepped up the power to max, so its hard to test... Would compare Anafi FCC on highest power stage (i believe 500mW) with EVO.

Ok, finally had some time to do a range test today in my area. Loads of Wifi, since this is suburbs. For the distance, I fly over a forested area, then a cemetary etc. From the launching spot, there is about a 122m "hill" directly out, so range is usually limited by the hill, not able to go that far past it. Reception was great...much better than I thought it would be. Got out to 2km before the signal cut out. I suspect it may be the hill blocking the signal, but I was higher than the hill, but looking at the video pointed at return, I can see that my take off point was barely higher than the hill, so pretty sure hill was limiting factor, since signal dropped pretty fast beyond the hill. I had antenna pointed up, then switched them to point down. I am really surprised at this range in these conditions. I put the video transmission rate on 20hz, that seems to work better. I am not a range guy, but had to test this so I get a sense of the capabilities. I will still mod the RC with the 4 hawks, and I anticipate much stronger signal. Will see.
This was flown on the new firmware just released, 2.3.0. RTH landing was spot on, with the drone correcting every time as it came in.
Snapped this picture on the way back in, straight off the card. I am liking this drone.

One incidence happened during a RTH...drone got overhead and complete loss of signal on the RC. Would not reconnect. Drone was about 60m above and was in landing mode. I restarted the RC, and it connected again. Lets hope this is not a trend. 1st time this happened with this drone. I have had the app disconnect, but not the RC. I think the app was disconnecting due to the cable I was using, so I changed it and no more disconnects.

Question about active Antennas e.g. Alientech Pro 2,4Ghz... Do you have any idea if the amps can live fine & be effective no matter if they get CE power level or FCC power level?
ALthough i hope that there will be a FCC "Mod" for the E2 of course i do not know. So would the Alientech Pro also do at least some magic on a CE System?

Uhh i am so unsure, any word pro/contra Titan Drones Control vs 4hawks Raptor SR (both passive).
On physical specs i can see the Titan is rather large (mor elike the XR) but it has quick connectors, i understand the 4Hawks Raptor SR is "fixed", right?
[2020-06-25 21:36:16]
quad808 :
4 hawks, no quick connects. With bracket, 3 movable positions. I decided to mod the Evo II RC without quick connects. Why? With quick connects you have little threading to secure it to the RC, and if I wnanted to use the T-lock for the Titan, I needed more room away from the RC, so I went with a longer Female Antenna WiFi Pigtail Cable and am buying RP-SMA MALE ANGLE to QMA MALE ANGLE cables so I can use quick connects on the Titan. Quick connects are easier, but are they better? Dunno. The Titan antenna might just be a rebranded 4 hawks XR?

I know you guys will see this over on autelpilots, but will post here too: Testing update:
After modding the Evo II RC with the 4 Hawks, I was able to test, and also tested the Evo I with the same 4 Hawks, but on the Evo I the 4 Hawks was hooked up to a Titan Atlas amped system. I wanted to see if there was a major difference between the Evo I RC amped vs the Evo II RC no amps. Yes, I realize that they are the same RC's, and not the same drones - but the Evo II RC currently can't be connected to the Titan system until some cables come in.
Keep in mind, this flying area is suburbs with a lot of 2.4 noise: And the fact that I don't enjoy doing long distance flying.
Original testing with the Evo II stock Antenna got me out around 2km before video break up and total loss of signal. There were intermittent video glitches along the way.
Evo II with 4 Hawks, same flight path: No video glitches, solid strong signal. Went to 2.6km, and could have kept going...signal bars at that point were 1/2 full, no video breakup. I didn't want to go farther than that. Very nice flight. 4 Hawks, of course, gets very directional that far out.
Evo I with same 4 Hawks but boosted on the Titan Atlas - I went out to the same 2.6km, but had full bars still.
Very, very pleased with this setup. Next test will be with the Titan whip antenna, and the FPVLR "booby" antenna. By then, the cables I ordered should be in, so I can test the Evo II amped vs. non amped setups with each antenna setup.
The Evo II is fantastic. Solid flyer. The Evo I is great also. Both drones came back spot on RTH. I launched both drones from the lid of a big plastic bin with the lid on the grass. The Evo I was a little off in landing, by about a foot, so I manually landed it on the lid. The Evo II? Landed right on the lid. Didn't have to do a thing. Keep in mind that the landing zone for where I took off is only about 5m square without coming down and hitting something. Very impressed.

[2020-06-28 21:01:02]
quad808 :
update on testing. I flew yesterday using the Titan Drones "rubber duck" antennas, NOT amped on the Evo II RC. Wow. Impressed. Solid signal, went just as far as the 4 Hawks, but I have no doubt that the 4 Hawks would produce a farther flight, since they are more directional. Same flight path. The Titan rubber ducks may be my go to antenna for now, since they are omni directional.

Of course i first need to establish a "stock CE" baseline, last range test was interrupted prematurely at 4km distance, maybe i go for testing / comparing Penetration instead...

Just tried a range test in a different way after my standard penetration test was fine: just flew about 1300m at 2m Altitude before "weak signal" came up with Stock :slightly_smiling_face:

I still do not know what exactly to expect with 5/10/20 MHz setting for image transmission. I would have expected a tradeoff between smoothness & range vs. Image Quality but thats not the case. I **guess** the range and penetration of fluid image transmission was highest on 20Mhz which is the reverse of what i expected :stuck_out_tongue: Does anyone have any Details on this?

My friend, that is Awesome! @ender Would this mod, bringing the "Boobies" closer, even just a little bit, affect the antennas at all, or does it matter? I know next to nothing about antenna's.

@bjoneseying Explorer app stuttering and phone restarting. I experienced the same thing first flight on my Evo II Pro. Not good, and was not happy. Totally disconnected and restarted my phone. Note 8. Didn't make sense, but I also was reading about slow downs and app stuttering online. Next flight I changed the transmission rate to 20hz and noticed RIGHT AWAY the app live video feed cleared up from any stuttering while the Evo II was on the ground. Not one single problem since doing that. I flew my Evo I too...only one flight, but didn't have any problems at all. I have no idea what changing the video transmission rates do...need to research this.
[2020-07-01 23:18:27]
quad808 :
@ender I think I may do the same with my FPVLR too, since I can't currently use it unless I attach it to the Titan Atlas. Did you notice a large diff in using the FPVLR vs other antenna? I couldn't tell too much from your comments above. 1st range test was with stock antenna?? I only flew one range flight with stock, and it wasn't that good in my area.
[2020-07-02 00:44:30]
bjoneseying :
I only use 10Mhz due to congested 2.4Ghz spectrum
[2020-07-02 00:45:14]
bjoneseying :
Hate how the Evo will only use fixed channels where the DJI product will automatically dynamically adjust bandwidth based on measured conditions at the time
[2020-07-02 00:45:58]
bjoneseying :
On 5Ghz locking in 20Mhz is fine as its usually interference free or very minimal, but on 2.4Ghz is quite an ask
[2020-07-02 00:47:30]
bjoneseying :
Whats clear about the issue is its that version of the app only. Previous was fine, it doesnt seem limited to the Note 8 as even locking/rebooting up a current gen SoC (S865/8GB RAM)
[2020-07-02 00:48:00]
bjoneseying :
Now you're saying you had it on the Evo 2 so its not drone related either it seems as thats 2 entirely different models
[2020-07-02 00:49:17]
bjoneseying :
The issue feels almost as if its attempting to decode the H264/265 feed in software (CPU) vs in hardware (GPU) - its the same sort of thing you see if you use VLC to watch a movie with hardware support disabled
[2020-07-02 00:49:49]
bjoneseying :
Both phones with S835/865 can quite happily decode H264/H265 4k/30 in hardware with no issue
[2020-07-02 01:37:25]
mel69hash :
Let's see how it goes. The quick release QMA pigtail connector on the RC was barely screwing onto the RC cover. Need to file the external protruding piece to enable the internal nut to screw onto the connector end. End result good, clean and easy plug in and play 4Hawks antenna on Evo 2.
[2020-07-02 05:39:31]
bjoneseying :
Also tried flicking it to 20Mhz and it made no difference but came partly smooth after going back to 10Mhz? Either way its horribly unstable for me and others.
[2020-07-02 05:39:55]
bjoneseying :
Next flight will be with the previous version assuming it fixes it

I do not know if the performance will be affected by putting them closer together. I do not think so as they had adjustable distance in the first place. But as i have no comparison ?!?!
[2020-07-02 06:35:07]
ender :
The "low altitude" tests i did with stock. Now i am waiting for the rain to go away to retest with FPVLR.
Lets see if the difference is noticable, will report :slightly_smiling_face:

nice and clean work!
I was thinking hard about using QMA stuff and i may later do it but i cannot get my hands on QMA stuff here and i was too impatioent to wait for delivery from China..

ender :
Hi :slightly_smiling_face: can one of you guys with Antenna modded Evo do me a favour?
I did a comparison flight today in a short rain break, so far so good, at least as good as with stock Antennas, but i had to cancel early because of the next rain cloud (grrrr)...
When unscrewing the Antenna i realized that one of the RP-SMA was a bit loose so i feared to have ripped the cable off internally.
I measured resistance between middle pin and shielding, the "left" one (on the start/land side) had zero Ohm (!!!) the "right" one (on the HOME side) had infinity Ohm. Hmmmmm as the right one was the one i feared to have ripped i opened the RC, unplugged the UFL and measured. Seemed OKAY!
I then found my RF meter (Tadaaaaa) and measured on both sides.
Amazingly there is no signal unless i switch on the drone, for Mavic / Air / Anafi and others i usually measured some "pulsing" when switching on the remote. SO the RC is just listening on the E2 ! When i switched on the A/C it came alive.
One showed a steady output level, the other one fluctuated on a much lower level.
So: Could one of you guys measure the DC Resistance on both sides for comparison? Of course if you feel like it also measure the RF Output on both sides. I know you are Pro's but let me remind you to not have the RC switched on without some load (Antenna / RF Meter) on the output, Amps can go haywire and overheat without (at least in the good ol' days).
**Thanks!**

ender :
P.S. It got dry here for a while so i continued test flight, all seems well, incredible range :slightly_smiling_face:
As i could not compare Penetration tests (cant compare dry leafs / trees with wet ones) i just flew away 4,5 km at 100m, still 5 bars. i went down to 25m OKAY (several rows of trees meanwhile blocking, 2 bars) at 20m it diconnected. 10 secs later at 30m i got a reconnect :slightly_smiling_face: Thats really great...
I have to say the "bars" suck, like in most applications where they want you to have 5 bars all the time to make you feelgood. they should not have such a steep curve for mapping SNR to bars, it goes from 5 to 2 to zero very fast. I like to have it MUCH more gradually...
[2020-07-02 20:05:10]

Oh did i mention i **love** the flight time? :slightly_smiling_face:
[2020-07-03 01:19:42]
quad808 :
I think you are on to something about decoding. I could see the difference in the stutter right away, once I changed to 20Mhz...in other words, started app. Got live feed. Live feed was halting, and you could see the studder...like it was having trouble decoding the video. Changed to 20. Studder stopped once change was made....it was immediate. No problems after.
[2020-07-03 01:23:49]
quad808 :
@ender did you leave it on 10Mhz or did you change to 20Mhz or something else? Any issues with the app, studdering, or slow downs? I have not had a problem since my first flight.
[2020-07-03 06:32:49]
bjoneseying :
Looks like the previous V1.1.3.9 version works fine - only downside is Android auto-updates it to v1.1.5.3 shortly after install

using previous version is fine, the minute its updated, issue comes straight back :disappointed:

Any idea can we revert back to previous version and how can we do it
[2020-07-03 07:29:10]
ender :
@mel69hash you are talking of Firmware, right? If so then the only thing i heard is that EVO does not allow downgrades :disappointed:
[2020-07-03 07:30:11]
ender :
@quad808 I left it at 10 MHz, no stutter, no issues. Perfection (well of course until i was close to connection loss, the of course i had artifacts / freeze / lag on the screen
[2020-07-03 07:31:28]
ender :
later i tried 5Mhz and 20 MHz, still cant make out lot of a difference. AGain got the impression that link was worse on 5 MHz and best on 20 MHz but thats very subjective and just based on a few seconds staring on the screen.
[2020-07-03 07:32:33]
ender :
And the connection seems to reset to 10 MHz after power cycle it seems.
[2020-07-03 07:32:48]

[2020-07-03 09:35:54]
ender :
IF its blurred all over, can you try to set manual focus to 1m and infinity back & forth?
OR even more drastic, holding something "vibrating" like elecric toothbrush on the camera case? In the early MP copters that sometimes helped to "unstick" the lens moved by USM.
Of course that has like 10% chances to help but it doe not hurt or destroy anything
[2020-07-03 09:36:50]

or is the focus mechanism not such a free floating USM mechanism, i do not fully know for the Pro. Nevertheless it will not hurt :slightly_smiling_face:

ender :
@lukappaseidue strange, to my eyes they do not really look defocussed but "shaky". but at 1/1000s that is not likely :slightly_smiling_face:
Did you look at the gimbal on the ground, is it vibrating? (Gimbal calibration) ?
I might be wrong and its the focus but right now i would look for vibration issues...
[2020-07-03 09:49:36]
ender :
Whatever Autel is of course expected to act and replace, its not up to the user to fix it. But maybe look for vibrations / defective prop / loose parts / whatnot.
[2020-07-03 09:51:09]
ender :
update: also looking at the video i **think** i see micro-wobbling which would add to the vibration suspicion...

ender :
Others, please check my observations & help Luca
[2020-07-03 09:53:12]

---> looked at the video at 200%, i am quite sure there is some wobbling / shifting going on.
I am putting 10 Euro on vibrations / loose parts in-camera/gimbal

SO forget about my earlier Focus BS :slightly_smiling_face:
[2020-07-03 09:59:44]
lukappaseidue :
please, check with care! Above all, if you look closely at the photos, in reality they are out of focus suits and only a little less in the center.
If you zoom in you have an immediate idea of it.
If you then look in the other two folders there are comparative photos taken simultaneously with another EVO II PRO with the same identical settings as mine (reset both gimbal and camera)
The file sizes are also different

sizes are different as blurry images are better for compression

quad808 :
Yes, I see bad gimbal AND blurry everywhere except dead center. Two issues. Gimbal and focus. Autel will make it right, I am sure. Keep us informed. I assume you calibrated the gimbal? That won't cure the focus...but worth a shot.
[2020-07-03 18:30:59]
ender :
@quad808 if its blurry everywhere except center the focus could be okay but the rotational motor of the gimbal could jitter... Well whatever, it has to go to the mail...
[2020-07-03 18:34:01]
quad808 :
yes, agree. I wonder if a reflash of firmware may fix this. Just a guess from problems I have seen with DJI drones. Don't know if Autel uses the same "module" system of firmware updating as DJI does.
[2020-07-03 18:34:53]
quad808 :
@lukappaseidue when you get a chance, list all the firmware versions on your drone so we can compare
[2020-07-03 20:21:17]

First time, I flash firmware by SDcard update, and than after have noticed that annoying issue, i reflash always from SD with fw 230 downloaded again from AUTEL SITE. And yes, I reset camera and gimbal and no changes, Jello a focal camera issues are still there .... and the worse of worse, is that AUTEL STILL NO REPLY TO ME!!!!!

Ha, i was able to do a first test and it looked good as well.
Again as everything was wet i could not really compare but as with the FPVLR i was blown away by the fact that it behaved as LEAST as good as stock Antenna for dry conditions, that says a lot :slightly_smiling_face:

**QUESTIONS:**
Do you know, does RTH automatically switch on Obstacle Avoidance?
And, as with most drones, is the max Speed Limit meant to be above ground or **including** wind speed? (It seems to be its above ground but it could also be a simple limitation of tilt angle)

Nice @lukappaseidue! I have been playing around, trying to figure out a way to do the same, based on the first video you showed it a little bit. I have something working, but it is sort of a "throw something together" sort of thing, but its working well so far. The Evo has needed some love in this department for a while now, so I hope this solution is good. I would prefer to have my phone in front of the RC and not behind it by the antennas, making the RC back heavy and unbalanced to hold.

Adding insult to injury drone was only 6 days old when I had to send it back - they should have just sent me a new RC and I sent back the old one but common sense seems to evade Autel.

Found out EVO only uses left antenna for TX & RX. Disconnected the right antenna when AC was away to test and check. No sign of loss signal. Once left antenna disconnected, loss of signal and warning showed that AC and RC was disconnected. Hence will be boosting the left antenna.
[2020-07-10 03:16:57]
mel69hash :
Today flight non boosted. Flew to 7km across heavily congested southern shipping anchorage in Singapore with Itelite Nanosync at 50 - 60m as LOS being blocked by anchored ship. Signal was great and much better then stock. Can't wait to boost this beast with amp and see how stable it can get with the video link. Switched transmission be between 5, 10 & 20 mhz and noticed that 10 was the best. Looking forward to Autel Robotic making Asian FW with FCC. That'll be awesome. Anyone have any idea to patch FCC onto Evo 2 Pro as Autel hv just upgraded Thailand to FCC.

Guys i deleted some messages that lead to a possible attack vector on the EVO 2.
I am now talking to a more knowledgable person, but until then, even if you know what i was writing PLEASE be quiet about it for some small time until we know more. IF what i saw is true we do not want Autel to instantly know it or the door will be closed forever, i HOPE you see that.

I scrapped 2 old experiments and so i had 2 of those good wifi amps (also used by Alientech). I experimentally added them to my 4Hawks SR.
Great penetration!
[2020-07-14 12:00:08]
ender :
I guess i will add them in a modular way so i could use the 4 Hawks with or without Amps.
[2020-07-14 12:00:52]
ender :
I also think i will just open the RC a second time and add an output of the internal battery to power the Amps with the RC batteries if needed.
[2020-07-14 12:01:23]
ender :
That way i could always very easy "upgrade" the Power Output and dont need to worry about one more gadget i forgot to charge.
[2020-07-14 12:02:08]
ender :
As i have a dedicated old phone for flying (slightly damaged S8) that i use with root-Battery Limit the phone is usually NOT charging from the RC (i hate that).
[2020-07-14 12:02:43]
ender :
I would assume that powered 4Hawks SR should be on par with the Alientech Solution, or do you think otherwise?
[2020-07-14 12:06:32]
ender :
BTW i found those amps as a "kit" by now. When i ordered them ages ago i had to order boards & cases as 2 seperate orders, but here is a kit:

ender :
@mel69hash some time before you gave me some Ali links fpr QMA stuff...
2 Questions:
1. The UFL pigtails seem too long on the internal side to fit the EVO RC, did you use exactly those for the EVO RC? And if so did it need some horrible bending of the crimp-part of the connector? Please compare with the ones they sell (for unbelievable prices) at the Alientech site, they do not seem to have such a "crimp tail":
[2020-07-14 16:50:23]
ender :
2) Do you happen to live in the EU so you could sell some of your cables as they only come in 10-count packages :slightly_smiling_face:

ender :
Luca, the pigtails look like very "simple" regular pigtails, not the 90 degree angled ones i used and that are known for DJI / Parrot drones.
Did you not get into trouble with refitting the battery on these pigtails?
For me it was even a very tight fit using the angled ones ?!?
And: It should not matter which pigtail goes to upper/lower UFL or left right afaik.
As my cables were on the short side i **had** to use the UFL closer to the case when connecting the farther distant Antenna.

Coupon code "92c602" seems to work for me, but i already have one and its Banggood which could spell trouble for such an expensive item :slightly_smiling_face:
But if you are "Livin' on the Edge" thats a good Deal :slightly_smiling_face: Bought my Mivic Pro with a similar rebate at Banggood years ago... Just pray its fine and all is good then.
I **did** ask Autel when the EVO 2 is announced if they give same warranty if bought from Ali / BG / GB or at a local (here German) Dealer and they said YES, but of ocurse the shipping / custom costs can easily eat up the win if things go bad...
[2020-07-22 18:35:06]
quad808 :
I am working on some voltages for the Evo II batteries, so that we know how much to charge them when putting away for storage. Yes, they are smart batteries and will discharge to what the smart board is programmed as storage voltage, but it will still be good to know how much to charge them before putting away to minimize the smart board doing discharging.
[2020-07-22 18:40:13]
quad808 :
I have a lipo discharger that I made connections for the EVO II batteries. Discharging at 5A to bring the battery down to 1 bar, then will let it rest to normalize voltage, take a reading, charge to 2 solid bars, take a reading, charge to 3 solid bars, take a reading etc. I think, based on early tests, charging to 3 bars solid is too much. We want 3.8 per cell, so 11.4v for storage charge. I do not know what the storage charge programmed into the smart board is.
[2020-07-22 18:42:31]
ender :
uh do the evo2 have single cell-out?
[2020-07-22 18:42:57]
quad808 :
no, so have to use total volts
[2020-07-22 18:42:57]
ender :
i thought its just the whole voltage and for single cell info you need to "ask" via data bus?
[2020-07-22 18:43:06]
ender :
ah okay!
[2020-07-22 18:43:44]
quad808 :
just so that we can see on the "dumb" leds when is a good time to stop charging before we put away
[2020-07-22 18:44:32]
quad808 :
any idea how much amps the EVO II uses in flight?
[2020-07-22 18:44:41]
quad808 :
for normal flying?
[2020-07-22 19:12:52]
ender :
Must be around 11 A minimum average (40 min flight time) to 22 A maximum average (20 min brutal flying / high winds) and from my DIY experience i would say 40 A peaks, maybe even 60 A peaks
[2020-07-22 19:24:54]
quad808 :
I can set the discharge on the lipo discharger up to 35A, so don't want to stress the discharge
[2020-07-22 19:26:42]
ender :
35A on a 7,1 mAh battery would just be a 5C.
[2020-07-22 19:26:53]
ender :
Thats laughable so do not worry.
[2020-07-22 19:27:21]

racers put their battery on to 20C on average, 50C peak :slightly_smiling_face:

i had one DIY hexa going up in flames after "optimizing" the Atmel ESC's with my own microcode drawing about 200C at last log message, THEN it started burning in midair on 3 Arms :slightly_smiling_face:

Here is what I got for battery charging: on charger.
1 solid, 2nd blinking - 11.34v
2 solid, 3rd blinking - 11.62v
3 solid, 4th blinking - 12.33v
[2020-07-23 04:02:28]
quad808 :
So it looks like charging to 3 leds is too high, so charge to 2 leds, and then for another few minutes. It looks like smart board storage voltage for these batteries is set on 11.65

Guys, i tried but i am unable to make the Amps for the 4Hawks "modular", its always an awkward setup.
And while the 4Hawks "unamped" are great & much better then Stock they are not **much** better then the much tinier FPVLR CP "bra style" Antennas.
So: is there anybody from the EU (farther away shipment & taxes ruin everything) who wants to buy my 4Hawks Raptor SR for 75 Euros + shipping, just direct message me :slightly_smiling_face: (Thats what i paid for them before modding them to fit the EVO)

Okay, i have just gained root access via USB / RNDIS to the Evo2. i want to make sure that FW 2.5.0 does not ruin that before upgrading..
@lukappaseidue did you already upgrade and could you try something for me?
[2020-08-04 21:12:18]
ender :
Who here is **good** and could actually do some good with root on EVO?
(Like FCC for CE Users, remove limits for flight speed / heigth, whatnot?)
I am just a lame duck :slightly_smiling_face:

but he doesn't have an Evo... @jcase does! I am sure he has had root for some time now
[2020-08-04 21:16:14]

oh jcase has root, why didnt he tell us or do something with it?
[2020-08-04 21:16:43]

i got help from bin4ry so i know he has no evo :disappointed:
[2020-08-04 21:17:20]
quad808 :
That would be up to him. Lots of people only want stuff and hard to share anything new with that kind of attitude around here.
[2020-08-04 21:17:39]
ender :
okay, i ask him to make sure... Thx :slightly_smiling_face:
[2020-08-04 21:20:31]

My fingers are crossed we can get somewhere with the Evo line!
[2020-08-04 21:21:07]
ender :
Would be nice!
[2020-08-04 21:44:30]
ender :
--> Talking to jcase, shared the method with him, so now i can be hit by a bus and there is no harm :slightly_smiling_face:
[2020-08-04 21:48:34]
ender :
Its probably known but JFYI the evo "main stuff" seems to run on a "hi3559av100" SoC

@ender PM sent

if anybody can get at the fc @jcase and @bin4ry can. it's just beyond my capabilities.

bin4ry :
what are we aiming for at all here ?
[2020-08-05 08:13:14]
bin4ry :
which mods i mean
[2020-08-05 08:16:42]
poopnondji :
evo is almost perfect in my eyes. only thing on my side that would be interesting is height limit removal :sunglasses:
[2020-08-05 08:17:34]
bin4ry :
ok
[2020-08-05 08:17:41]
bin4ry :
does it have ce / fcc rules ?

[2020-08-05 08:19:05]
bin4ry :
ok
[2020-08-05 08:19:27]
poopnondji :
I think there;s an app for fcc being tested

aw man Autel getting some love in here that's awesome:grin:
[2020-08-05 08:20:17]

[2020-08-05 08:21:10]
poopnondji :
a user in this group sent me a modded app couple months ago
[2020-08-05 08:21:22]
bin4ry :
i see
[2020-08-05 08:22:04]
poopnondji :
couldn't really test because I'm already on the fcc side
[2020-08-05 08:42:15]
bin4ry :
is there a message that pops up when you reach maximum altitude ?
[2020-08-05 08:42:17]
bin4ry :
it could help
[2020-08-05 08:44:42]
bin4ry :
ce fcc mod is trivial as i see it
[2020-08-05 08:45:07]
bin4ry :
and at what height is it limited ?
[2020-08-05 08:47:18]
bin4ry :
also i see there are noflyzones implemented in the firmware
[2020-08-05 08:47:21]
bin4ry :
are they not active ?
[2020-08-05 08:58:07]

[2020-08-05 09:17:24]
bin4ry :
yeah i got it
[2020-08-05 09:17:29]
bin4ry :
i can remove nfz and force fcc
[2020-08-05 09:17:44]
poopnondji :
it'll show a warning about the nfz but it won't stop you from flying.
[2020-08-05 09:17:45]

i think i have it done already now lol

ender :
As far as i recall the guy that modded (and is still modding) the Anafi App quicloy looked into FCC modding-by-App and found that its not possiboe. He also posted a modded test app in AUtelpilots afair.
[2020-08-05 09:36:42]
ender :
@bin4ry Yes there is a warning when you reach alt limit to have a place to start searching
[2020-08-05 09:37:02]
ender :
It is said that indeed flight limits can be patched by modding the App.
[2020-08-05 09:37:20]
ender :
My #1 (and #2 and #3) prios are FCC mode of course, as always.
[2020-08-05 09:37:21]
bin4ry :
i got it @ender
[2020-08-05 09:37:31]
ender :
Fcc or alt limit?
[2020-08-05 09:40:28]
bin4ry :
i hope both
[2020-08-05 09:40:30]
bin4ry :
we will see
[2020-08-05 09:45:16]
ender :
:fireworks:
[2020-08-05 11:44:49]
ender :
By the way, i guess i am the last to realize (have read about it long time ago on autelpilots but dismissed it):
The glue of the 2 rubber "feet" for the mobile phone holder is rubbish, both pieces came loose by now and i nearly lost one in the field.
[2020-08-05 11:45:18]
ender :
I cleaned up every glue / adhesive tape residue and reglued with 2 component glue and now its fine :stuck_out_tongue:
[2020-08-05 20:29:28]
quad808 :
yah, I don't know why they use cheap glue. It's not like the RC has changed from the Evo I, which has the same problem. I had to glue down the Evo I pad, but so far not had to do the Evo II RC yet.
[2020-08-05 22:26:57]
lukappaseidue :
I was the guy that asked for FCC patch, time ago, EVO 1 time, but with no luck, but now things are differents. I have received the patched app from the autor of Anafi app, but with no luck
[2020-08-05 22:29:36]
lukappaseidue :
This is the fix for the holder (the guy that printed it to me, is selling the holder. If somebody is interested, send me a message (advice: shipping to US countries is really expensive, more than the item itself
[2020-08-06 02:06:24]
mel69hash :
Is it advisable to upgrade the FW. I don't think so until you guys can confirm it here first. The latest fw look & sounds good.
[2020-08-06 06:00:25]
lukappaseidue :
I have already updated to release.
The truth is that we are used (badly) with DJI, which releases a little candy every time to invite to update, but at the same time hides something
[2020-08-06 10:54:37]
pingspike :
I've not updated to v2.5 yet, still running v2.3.3 if anyone needs anything testing
[2020-08-06 10:57:02]
ender :
I asked Luka to run a script to check if root is still possible, before i know the outcome i will not update :slightly_smiling_face:
[2020-08-06 11:04:41]
ender :
so where can we buy it and is it available for 7" to 10" tablets as well?
[2020-08-06 20:42:47]

anyone that has an EVO I or II, NEEDS to contact @lukappaseidue immediately. The phone/tablet holder is fantastic. Phone is in front, so balances the controller much, much better. I am super impressed at this design. Someone really thought this through...it's simple but great at the same time. Easy on, easy off. Nothing permanent is done to the RC. Nothing gets in the way of either the USB plug or messes up the way you hold the RC. It's about time someone made a really great phone/tablet holder for the Evo RC's. Wow.

@lukappaseidue saw your set up but could not really see the 3D print under that tab. Can it fit 6.7" Huawei mate 20 pro. Would love to hv em. I diy'ed with hard board and a tablet holder on gopro mount

This is mine
[2020-08-07 04:32:36]
quad808 :
I will tell you this much....if you have a phone/tablet holder with a ball joint? You will use that holder part with this, so definitely it will take whatever size your current expandable holder can take.
[2020-08-07 05:08:05]
mel69hash :
Mine both side of the board has a 8mm with x 15mm length to slot between the arm holder and it fits snuggly.

I can use every kind of smartphone / tablet since 10"
You only need an holder that fit from 4" to 10"

there is one bag with EVO "Adapter":
[2020-08-13 12:32:38]
ender :
[2020-08-13 12:33:03]
ender :
BUT there is already a Holder on the Antenna ready with 2 cables.
[2020-08-13 12:33:31]
ender :
If i try out the one already on the holder the holes are spaced too wide, like 2mm are missing to be able to put it on the EVO.
[2020-08-13 12:34:18]
ender :
So i compared it with the Holder in the EVO bag. The screws are slightly different (deeper) but the plastic holder looks identical so i fear it also wont fit to the EVO ANtennas, whats going on?
[2020-08-13 12:40:18]
ender :
[2020-08-13 12:41:19]

The left one (deeper one) was in the EVO Bag, the right & tinier one was already screwed to the Pro Antenna

glad you got it sorted. LOL....I bought one too, and looked at it...WTF...too wide....DOH! have to unscrew it a bit and the connects slide closer...then you can screw those silver screws? onto the RC quick connects. Actually a really smart design! Let us know how you like it!
[2020-08-13 19:02:37]
ender :
Just back from the flight!
Actually it did not blow me away in terms of Transmission as it was on par with the amped FPVLR / CP or the amped 4Hawks Raptor SR but i expected that.
The other thing i was looking for was compact & integrated Design and its **really** great!

@mel69hash any ideas on where to buy new boards? I have two bad batteries that are being replaced....
[2020-08-14 20:02:31]
ender :
How did that happen? :exploding_head:
[2020-08-15 00:24:28]
mel69hash :
@quad808 you may want to ask Evelyn from Alibaba at [evelyn@beyondsky.net](mailto:evelyn@beyondsky.net). I don't see this in their list though.
[2020-08-15 00:35:46]
mel69hash :
I'd like to know too. I managed to add a power lead abd a ballance lead to have it overcharged. So far do good. I am yet to disconnect them all and reconnect to dual M2 cells for an 7700mah bat.
[2020-08-15 19:38:30]
quad808 :
Ok, so I used a Mavic Pro charging lead that has plugs on the end to use with a standard lipo charger...the kind you plug in the leads. For some reason, when measuring the batteries power at various charging levels, it messed up the internal boards, and while the batteries will charge, they will now not output any charge out. Lights all work, but will not work in the drone anymore. I contacted Autel, and they are replacing them, and don't want them back. They want the charger back...since I told them it could be the charger. Something shorted on the battery board, I am sure of it, but don't know how this could have happened. When I used the lead to measure voltage, I would turn off the battery, connect the lead up, connect the ends to my volt meter, then turn on the battery....
[2020-08-15 19:39:31]
quad808 :
The Autel batteries, I and II, have the same pinouts as the Mavic pro batteries.
[2020-08-15 19:41:12]
quad808 :
Don't know what I did to have a short somewhere...but I could smell the magic smoke, but not see any and the lights blinked on the battery when it happened and it turned itself off. Both of them.
[2020-08-15 22:39:27]

Well Evelyn from they don't supply the bat board

new style gimbal cover arrived
[2020-10-10 19:11:23]
pingspike :
it’s really nicely packaged and well engineered - much easier to use that the old style
[2020-10-10 20:28:39]
lukappaseidue :
what is the best of them?
[2020-10-10 20:31:50]

ender :
Ahhh for those also not knowing: RTK does not mean "funny nose" but:
> **Real-Time Kinematic**
So for mapping the positioning is improved by addng means to correct that position by stationary transmitters, cool!
[2020-10-13 09:19:36]

we use RTK at work on our tractors in the field (auto-steering)

I really wish they wouldn’t add all this shit in their release notes
[2020-10-31 06:31:35]
pingspike :
half this stuff came with 2.5.11
what’s actually different in this new release? That’s the whole point of release notes :man-facepalming::skin-tone-2:
I’m guessing just the gimbal not ready bug?
[2020-10-31 06:49:47]
lukappaseidue :
With this release they have patched the "gimbal not ready" issue
[2020-10-31 09:57:14]

yeah
[2020-10-31 09:57:22]
pingspike :
and that's ALL the release notes should say
[2020-10-31 09:57:55]

still, I guess we should be grateful that they did at least bump the version number up this time :grimacing: :man-facepalming::skin-tone-2:

wtf is going on with the firmware version numbers now?
Autel released "another" version of 2.5.12 yesterday
different file size, and of course a different checksum
but they still call it 2.5.12
fucking crazy man...
[2020-11-25 11:26:03]
pingspike :
how is anyone supposed to know what's going on?
[2020-11-25 11:26:13]

I've just emailed them for details

I love my Evo but man, Autel are such n00bs sometimes

All module of the latest fw are the same of the first one (same version 2.5.12)
but size of the new one is slightly smaller
[2020-11-27 15:08:50]
pingspike :
it's stupid
[2020-11-27 15:09:12]
pingspike :
just bump the firmware version number by one digit :man-facepalming::skin-tone-2:
[2020-12-01 20:50:11]

[2020-12-01 20:50:32]

the 6K is currently cheaper than the 8K at the moment on Amazon :man-shrugging::skin-tone-2:

and there’s a 10% promo on that right now too

are you sure this is for the rugged bundle?

quad808 :
On the US Amazon, I am seeing slightly discounted prices, but not much.
[2020-12-02 17:11:00]
pingspike :
no, it’s just the base 6K Pro
[2020-12-02 17:11:18]
pingspike :
but it’s cheaper than the 8K for some strange reason

didn't I have to activate my Evo when I got it?
[2020-12-16 21:33:49]
pingspike :
I don't actually remember now, it was a long time ago
seems Autel are copying too many things from DJI, including the bad ones :pensive:
[2020-12-16 23:11:53]
lukappaseidue :
you are right! This is why I am disturbed
[2020-12-16 23:54:53]
quad808 :
I bet the activation has to do with the new Autel Care...makes sense to have you activate your drone for this purpose...but lets hope thats the only reason...
[2020-12-16 23:56:19]
quad808 :
but those of us who already have one...meh....doesn't apply. I don't think I needed to activate the Evo II Pro, but did go ahead and add it to my Autel account.
[2020-12-17 02:53:45]
mel69hash :
It state it will initiate a warranty service
[2020-12-17 09:25:07]

Yes, this is what they say; but we do not know if they also do other things. I hope that AUTEL do not imitate DJI

[2020-12-17 21:23:51]
lukappaseidue :
Guys, I don't know what you think, but this story of AUTEL that has inserted the activation of the drone for me is very annoying
Are they copying the worst of DJI?
[2020-12-17 21:25:14]
lukappaseidue :
I haven't done the update yet, but I'm afraid they'll put something on the firmware that will block possible changes or introduce new limits or NFZs.
In my opinion it is silly that they say that activation is required for CARE
[2020-12-18 15:44:21]
pingspike :
but if the care package is only available in USA why does everyone in the rest of the world need to activate a drone they've already been flying for six months?

[2021-02-06 14:21:30]
mainframe :
@lukappaseidue have you seen some official statement from Autel about the Dragonfish prices? On earlier Autel CES videos it was spoken that “around 20-25k usd for the plane + payload”. I would guess these payloads would fall into 15-45k usd range - given the specs and considering similar products on the market. 120-180k eur would be military grade small UAVs price range - I doubt Dragonfish would match the featureset in that playground - ie it would be hard to sell then.
[2021-02-06 16:03:05]
lukappaseidue :
I agree with yout. This info about price was given from 2 different Authorized dealer
[2021-02-07 10:19:30]

ok - it would be crazy price - unless whole set contains 2 planes for 120k.

Does anybody know if its possible to root Evo remote?
[2021-03-21 09:46:25]

Looked at Explorer app and SDK - seems that internal fixed IP addresses are as follows:
aircraft: 192.168.1.200
remote: 192.168.1.20
camera or app?: 192.168.1.11
[2021-03-21 10:31:28]

@andres I hope you can discover something interesting
[2021-03-21 19:38:48]
mainframe :
Need some mentoring to dig further.
[2021-03-21 20:30:23]
lukappaseidue :
what kind of info do you need?
[2021-03-21 23:01:52]
mainframe :
for accessing the remote we need to figure out how. App seems to use android usb accessory method and some sort of proxy for the network connection. We need to access remote controller via network somehow - and Im out of ideas. Maybe someone with deeper Android experience could share some ideas on that.
[2021-03-21 23:06:36]
mainframe :
Im not getting any reaction on remote controller USB ports - when connecting them to normal USB host. Which indicates that there is some OTG/AOA stuff going on most probably.
[2021-03-21 23:07:44]
mainframe :
Also we need some ideas how to unpack drone rootfs from firmware files - in order to peak inside and understand the details.
[2021-03-21 23:08:18]
mainframe :
binwalk does not seem to be able to unpack there at/gt bin files.
[2021-03-21 23:09:13]
mainframe :
to my knowledge Evo’s flightcontroller runs PX4 - which means that there are also some companion board(s) - besides the flight controller
[2021-03-21 23:28:36]
mainframe :
judging by teardown videos drone has the following electronic components:
• gps board (top, front)
• pdb/esc board (under battery)
• flightcontroller board (top)
• main board with Hi3559 V100 SoC (bottom)
• camera board(s)

@quad808 @bin4ry we’re gonna need an FCC mod for this smart controller :drooling_face:
[2021-04-19 20:58:54]

By the way do we have FCC on the existing Evo 2 system?

lukappaseidue :
and not only for smart controller, but standard RC too
[2021-04-20 10:18:39]
lukappaseidue :
@mel69hash that I known, EVO II ha GPS switching and when it read the location it changes to the standard of that area.
I asked support and they said that the signal poweroutput is increased when the drone fly far, while when it is near the RC the signal is reduced.
But it would be very usefull to force FCC.
[2021-04-20 10:23:40]
mel69hash :
I'd prefer if we can have FCC as its more stable connection. I've modded my RC to use with 3amp 2.4ghz Nanosync antenna but it's just not as stable as FCC.

Saw somewhere in FB a comment that stated that smart controller FCC certification will come through in the end of 2021 or even later. Not sure if that is true - but if FCC/EU certifications are missing they are not going to sell in May 2021 I guess...
[2021-04-28 15:48:16]

And if certification would be done or in progress it should appear in respective registrars - ie there should be some proof about it.

• Triple sensor: 124500 eur
[2021-05-12 21:33:59]

Thats way too much for a non-military class uav - there are much proven alternatives for half of a budget.
[2021-05-12 21:37:13]

The only way that it would have made sense - would be that for that price you get 2 uav-s + 1 ground control station.

[2021-05-13 07:31:01]
mainframe :
When DragonFish plans were first introduced I assumed that it will be the first mass produced uav for the masses - with pricing in the 20-50k eur range. Somehow they ended up with 125k eur - and small series…
[2021-05-13 07:32:35]
mainframe :
while the plane looks nice, payloads are not. Seems that cameras have only gimbal stabilisation - vibration is seen when using zoom - no proper EIS I guess.
[2021-05-13 07:34:37]
mainframe :
And same kind of tracking algorithms are seen in EVO2 - which are very unmature. Probably they are a bit more polished in DragonFish - but I really doubt that they are ready for real-world use.

Dragonfish 2h flight time seems to be quite an overstatement again (as with Evo2 40min) - watching demo video it seems that it burns roughly 1% of battery for 1 minute of flight time. So 1h 30m guestimate might be more realistic.

Ragazzi,
sono riuscito ad ottenere la migliore quotazione possibile per avere lo SMARTCONTROLLER V1
Premetto che, come sicuramente ben saprete, ne verranno prodotti pochi esemplari.

Il prodotto sarà disponibile entro fine mese o al più tardi i primi di luglio.
Smartcontroller V1 al prezzo di €. 930,00 spedizione inclusa.
ATTENZIONE!
Prima di tutto vi segnalo che per ottenere quel prezzo occorre impostare la valuta corrente di ALIEXPRESS in USD, altrimenti il prezzo sale a 984,00

First of all, I would like to point out that to get that price you need to set the ALIEXPRESS currency in USD, otherwise the price rises to 984.00

_"In order to continue to provide users with a safe flying experience, we have implemented a compulsory No-Fly Zone Database update. This update will be uploaded to your aircraft._
_It will allow users in countries with No-Fly Zone laws and regulations to apply for a waiver if required by their local government. In addition, with updates to the database, customers will have the latest information regarding their local airspace. We believe this will assist users in executing safer flights in accordance with their local laws and_
_regulations."_

NFZs are coming to Autel?
[2021-06-25 11:22:45]

I’d certainly pay for it

What the f Autel is doing with nfz. If it was forced through and no way out, Autel pilots may just switch back to DJI on its Mavic 3 Pro release.
[2021-06-25 11:54:47]
pingspike :
I wonder if there will be a website to unlock flight zones, like the DJI GEO one

pingspike :
this is not good news at all :confused::pensive:
[2021-06-25 13:55:17]
mainframe :
lets wait for somebody testing the new release. What is known is that Autel is using no-fly zones in China as it is required there. Lets see if that has somehow changed - ie applied to other countries or not.

yes, my friend. It seem so. EVen if the guy is a bit far from the airport

lukappaseidue :
I will update with new when I have it
[2021-06-25 19:06:40]
quad808 :
hoping this is nothing to worry about. I live right on the edge of a NFZ, and DJI likes to limit my flights, so screw them. Autel just gives me a warning, which is great if you are a pilot and unsure of the rules where you are flying at. You get to decide and get approvals necessary to fly.

_"It is only a warning message to inform you that you are in the no-fly zone to make sure users know that._

_But for users in China and Japan, it will prevent you from flying drones as the local regulation required."_

Anyone here still looking to buy SC for V1. I contacted Banggood supplier and they said there is 150 on the way to their warehouse in China. I am looking to place order and they asked if any interested parties to order, they will reserve the required pieces for their warehouse.

In am really disappointed about AR. They are untrustable and are saying a lot of lies.
Only to talk: v1 and V2: are we sure that the truth is chip shortage? I replaced my v1 with v2 to buy sc V2 . But.... Where is sc v2? Only on Enterprise bundle and not alone. The connection is not good. And if there is chip shortage, how AR was able to release nano amd lite version? Sc v2 was advertised as compatible with future drones, but how it will be possible as future drones will be tri band?
And what about the lite+ that killed evo II Pro?

guys - autel evo2 drone seems to "phone home" when smartcontroller has internet. Very actively sending data over https to control server in AWS. Activity seems to depend on drone being powered on or not. I think this needs some further investigation and clarification...

Me and @konraditurbe have been looking more into "phone home" calls that Autel Explorer app makes while drone remains connected to the app - and it looks like drone gps location is sent to Autel servers. And this data could be potentially linked to your Autel account that was used to activate the drone. So - if you dont want your flights being tracked near realtime - do switch Autel Explorer app device to "airplane mode" - prohibiting internet use for the Autel Explorer app.

Anyone here can help to decipher and confirm Evo Lite Plus battery MBS connection. There is no balance battery lead as it is connected directly onto the BMS as shown as B0, B1, B2 and B3. Appreciate if someone can confirm the + (Positive) & - (Negative) and cell 1, 2 & 3. I am trying to increase the battery capacity via external additional 3S1P. This should not affect the BMS as much. Once the warranty expires then I will disconnect the cell from the BMS and hoping it won't lock up as DJI Mini 2 battery which is similar balance battery connection directly onto BMS board. Thank you

Sharing with you guys here on the rest of the battery photos.

Here's the positive (Red [R]+) & negative (Black [B] -) and the cell no 1 to 3 for reference. I will hook up that point to an external cells and let's fly to see how long I can get.

As the Evo 2 Pro fast charging block have the same pin out with Evo Lite Plus, it could charge the Evo Lite Plus battery too albeit the docking slot is a little different. I will try to do some small trimming to the charging block docking slot to fit the Evo Lite Plus. Doing this could result to the battery not sitting well into the slot and need a a rubber band or a velcro strap to hold battery and the charging block together. Well I think it is worth the try.

Hi guys, so i also found the new place.
Reading about SMART Controller phoning home is awful!
Are the latest "normal" Android explorer versions doing this as well?
(If so: possible to block by No-root Firewall?)
[2022-05-13 09:11:40]
mainframe :
All Explorer app versions do it - as its the map functionality in the app that does it.
[2022-05-13 09:11:58]
mainframe :
its a online map - so app sends coordinates
[2022-05-13 09:12:30]
mainframe :
remedy is quite simple at the moment - disable internet connection for the explorer app device
[2022-05-13 09:13:08]
mainframe :
you will loose online map - but prevent coordinates leakage

Long overdue mod to Evo 2 pro multiple battery fast charge block to adopt Evo Lite Plus battery charge. Trimming of the block charger connector and the Evo Lite Plus battery edge fins is required. Evo Lite Plus battery works as required. Locking mechanism and latching onto the aircraft without any problem. Overall I am pleased with the result. Charge a single Evo Lite Plus battery took me from 0 to 75% in 30 mins. Will do a multiple aircraft battery charge soon and post the video here.

[2022-11-12 07:57:16]
lukappaseidue :
Now the history is repeating again. Lite and Nano are 2.4ghz, 5.2ghz and 5.8ghz. the Evo V3 is 900mhz, 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz .... So ... Smartcontroller SE is 900.mhz, 2.4ghz and 5.8ghz ...
[2022-11-12 07:58:31]
lukappaseidue :
Smartcontroller SE will be compatible with Nano and Lite but no 900mhz and no 5.2ghz ... So we will expect a Lite and Nano v2... And so on
