Autel Evo Nano Plus Unboxing & Setup

[@YourreelmemoriesAu]

I think these various Autel drones are great for the industry. It keeps DJI on their toes as they have to better them now in features and price. I predict DJI coming back hard later this year but Autel seem to have nailed it early 2022 in regards to performance and features for their various drones. Even if you’re a DJI fanboy like me, competition is great for the consumer overall.

[@AirPhotography]

Very true, competition in the market is good for everybody. Will keep prices low and keep innovation moving. In the end the consumer wins

[@keithy4129]

Competition is great but you can almost get a Air 2s, or a Mavic Air 2 for the price of this thing.

[@YourreelmemoriesAu]

@@keithy4129 Yes I have both and wouldn’t even consider an Autel drone at those prices but it will spur DJI to better them at least.

[@romo8547]

Looks like a very nice piece of kit. Look forward to seeing some more in-depth videos once you get out flying with it. One feature I love is to do with the compass which puts the controller/pilot in the centre, rather that the drone being in the centre as it is with DJI. I find having the drone in the centre and therefore viewing everything from the drones point of view to be counter-intuitive and confusing. I wish DJI would change that. Another great, straightforward presentation. Love your channel

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you very much, indeed I like the way they have it set up as well

[@jamesobrien575]

Thanks for the review! I think I'll just wait for the DJI Mini 3 for now. Excited for that drone.

[@AirPhotography]

Indeed I’m pretty excited for that as well

[@Matanumi]

Yeah and it's expensive but man is it better

[@ruirodrigues9122]

Have this one on my list...initial impressions from all the reviews I've seen is DJI will seriously have to up their game with the mini 3. Seems to give great performance AND no geofencing

[@Foxy_Fabrications]

I'm really considering getting this as the upgrade to my mavic pro 1. It should be good for travel and hiking. I'm just not sure if I want to wait for DJI mini3 or etc.

[@ericacae]

Thanks S ! This drone is good looking with the black arms. Thanks for the video!

[@lacy8658]

Looks neat, but for the price and performance, I'd say it's better to splurge on the Air2S instead.

[@haminkim8511]

Nice as always!

[@ginaanjou2370]

So - you can't fly this drone without a phone? And do you need to be online when you fly - what if your in a remote area?

[@Curtis-Randall]

Thank you for your comprehensive and easy to understand videos. I truly trust your opinion and I appreciate everything you provide. I hope you and your family are doing well. Have a nice day

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you very much

[@battery_wattage]

I’m glad there is more real competition in the

[@AirPhotography]

Indeed competition is really good

[@tyroneclarke1666]

Thank you for doing the video. Very informative and the audio is very good too. Thank you again. Cheers mate 🦘🇦🇺

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you

[@room156dronevids3]

Great video. I really like this drone and all the reviews and info coming out is nothing but good.

[@McSue]

Thanks! Your videos are awesome! I am most interested in how good the ‘Enable audio recording during video shooting’ works. I am looking forward to your review.

[@cardinalview]

Do you think the camera is sufficient for RE photography? I have Mavic 3 and Air 2S as backup but after wasting time with unlocking zones thru DJI, I am considering adding the Nano to my fleet for those locations in authorization/GEO zones. I had one mission near Louisville, KY airport (SDF) where it was possible for 200’ AGL but DJI wouldn’t allow take off due to the proximity to the airport even after FAA approval and unlocking thru DJI Fly Safe site.

[@Tomas.O.Sullivan]

great unboxing ,look forward to your flights as i see some complain about its speed not being consistent, so yep great video

[@AirPhotography]

Yes I will definitely be testing that out over the coming days in weeks

[@moemaster1966]

Great review…I’ll be back to see the lite and nano demonstrations…thanks for sharing

[@adrianglessner5979]

There is a place on the back of the remote at the bottom of the retractable antenna for the removable sticks. There are 2 threaded holes.

[@IdahoQuadcopter]

Thank you, Shawn, you gave us some very helpful information here. As you say, the Autel Nano is an important release.

[@SuperSonny1952]

What galaxy cell phone would work for Autel Nano plus?

[@dee_em_bee]

Great video, really interesting to see the app in detail - super interested to see your comparison videos.

[@AirPhotography]

Hopefully if the weather cooperates soon 😲

[@MarioScott]

Was waiting for you to review these

[@AirPhotography]

It’ll be a few weeks before I put up a full review I want to spend a good amount of time flying it. But in the meantime I’ll be making other videos about it some demonstrations and such

[@captraykelly]

Great video, Sean. Looks like an awesome drone.

[@jamdungdrones2424]

Man oh man is autel fighting back. Look dji autel aint playin around. I love this package.

[@ozstrayapanoramas8610]

Nice unboxing & features summary

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you

[@IShootPixels]

Can’t wait to see flight testing. Thanks for the video

[@mateovelasquez1056]

Where can we find the joystick piece for the controller?or these are compatible with the Dji pieces ?

[@dhoser9296]

Great review. VERY glad to see you had no issues with the firmware upgrade like a few others have had. I'm thinking that perhaps you need to do the activation ( and maybe the registration?) of the bird before you do the firmware update. Mine will show up in a week so I guess I'll follow your procedures and hope for the best. Thanks. Looking forward to some video.

[@AirPhotography]

Yes I think that is important activate the drone first and then update the firmware. Mine went through pretty smoothly it did take about 10 minutes which I thought was a little longer than normal compared to other drones. But no issues so far

[@apicasefiles4870]

Very helpful. Thanks. I’m thinking of buying one of these drones.

[@pierresakr1811]

Well Explained , as usual . Waiting for more tutorial Regarding nano+ that i intend to order . Thank you

[@karthurjr]

Enjoyed your presentation. You are a no-nonsense guy in your presentations. Right to the point! Great! I'm an Autel flyer and very much interested in the NANO series and Lite as well. Do you know, is there a future I.D. built into either series quad?

[@AirPhotography]

That is a good question and I’m not sure of the answer. I will be doing a full review of it in a couple weeks once I’ve had a good amount of time to flag it, I’ll try and did that information up in the meantime

[@RonaldBrown59]

Nice unboxing and first look at the new Nano drone from Autel. We have been studying the spec's of the drone for awhile, since it was first announced a few months back. Now I'm looking forward to seeing how it actually performs out in real world conditions. Especially winter conditions which aren't very friendly to mini drones. Great video Shawn.

[@AirPhotography]

Thanks Ron, yes indeed we are in the dead of winter here in Canada and the weather has not been cooperative. These little drones don’t perform the best in cold temperatures

[@giannisstefanatos4400]

I received my new Evo Nano yesterday, downloaded the Fly app. Went to start everything up and the Fly app keeps telling me 'RC Disconnected'. I've tried a couple of cables, no change. I use a Galaxy Note 9. I tried with an iphine 13 Pro but I had exactly the same problem. Finally I tried with my opad Pro (2020). I had the same problem with your cables but I tried with another one and I succeed to activate the drone. Except that, I wasn't able to update the drone, I didn't have access to drone, I couldn't take photo or videos (I had an sd card inside). I was only able to move the gimbal. Nothing else. I couldn't pair the controller and I couldn't update the drone manually through the app. Nothing is working!! Any suggestions would be most appreciated! Thank you in advance

[@CohlTrain]

Does this support fpv what goggles should you use

[@stevegiannoulis_official]

Always enjoying your videos...quick ask; can you share the link for the pilot certificate application in Canada? there are several sites available and want to make sure it's done through a credible source. Thank you...!!!

[@AirPhotography]

Just go to the Transport Canada website, or just a Google search for Transport Canada Drone certificate. The transport Canada website is the only place that can issue a drone certificate. Some of the other results you’re getting might be from ground schools where they help prepare you

[@stevegiannoulis_official]

@@AirPhotography Thank yo for your response!!!

[@DimmyV]

Also i think they can shed some more weight. The Mini 2 is less than the stated 249g. I know it doesn’t have as many sensors or fans but Autel can shed some weight which can boost flight time.

[@fherny77]

Is true that the camera protector is hard to take of and to put on? That is a trouble and that losses connection on return to home

[@AirPhotography]

Mine has been pretty solid. I haven’t had any issues with losing connection. And as for the Gimbal cover can be a little fiddly, but I don’t find it too difficult no worse than any other drone

[@chrisricotta7063]

Great video. What's the price on this drone?

[@AirPhotography]

I think the base price for the nano is 649 or something like that of course the plus model is a little more and then again more if you get the premium combo. The package I got the nano plus premium bundle was 949. Seems kind of high but you have to remember this little Drone has almost the same specs as the DJI air

[@epic_c_lips]

Does the Nano has active track (GPS based)?

[@AirPhotography]

It will have tracking but I do believe it’s visual tracking only not GPS based

[@renerflyair9746]

Essa última atualização que foi oferecido, arquivo corrompido pode descalibrar os sensores? Pois o meu nano plus está descalibrado

[@AdilErt]

Please dynamic track test

[@AirPhotography]

It’s not available yet waiting for a firmware update. But I do on testing

[@AdilErt]

@@AirPhotography Ok ✅

[@thewatchnoob7880]

Very informative! Thank you Sir.

[@FEWER1984]

Hey. Looking to get my first drone been doing my homework and want to pull the trigger on one of these. Where can you buy one in Canada? Can't find any online retailers within Canada.

[@techunboxing8933]

Is it still worth buying the autel nano plus today thanks?

[@ScottyMakesStuff]

Another great unboxing there! I'm curious if the the sticks can be swapped for the current standard DJI controller sticks?

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you very much. I’ll check into that but I don’t think they can

[@techworldwiz]

Where do you buy urs in canada?

[@AirPhotography]

I ordered directly from autelpilot.com. It took about five days to get here. And I think I had to pay about $35 in duty

[@techworldwiz]

@@AirPhotography thank you! I placing my order this weekend of the nano plus can’t wait to see ur video on the video quality. I live in Toronto what’s the price roughly after tax for the bundle nano plus?

[@g.donuts3551]

Nano vs Nano+, 48mp vs 50mp with larger sensor. Worth an extra $150? Why? Just for better low light, or something else? On a clear sunny day could you actually tell the difference?

[@AirPhotography]

Good point in perfect lighting that slightly larger sensor would probably not make much of a difference. So if you don’t plan on flying at night your best to save that extra money because other than that the drones are identical

[@g.donuts3551]

@@AirPhotography Either way they both look like a giant leap in image quality compared to DJI Mini SE or Fimi X8 SE 2020 cameras.

[@kemplu9638]

14:40 Gimbal mode fpv is very bad

[@djAlexF71]

Before I 👀 the video I always hit like because I know that this gentleman is good 👍🏻

[@AirPhotography]

Thank you very much

[@DimmyV]

I think DJI have to step up there game, this looks like a well thought out drone

[@AirPhotography]

Yes indeed

[@f13dfx]

Hi Sean. Who did you order your Nano+ from?

[@AirPhotography]

I ordered it from autelpilot It took five or six days to get here.

[@fj1100mark]

Apparently the sticks screw into two holes in the back of the antenna for storage

[@AirPhotography]

Yeah I’ve seen that. I don’t think it’s designed for that you do have to tap your own threads. But definitely nice and work around 👍

[@carr16k]

This seems to be the drone I've been waiting for. Owned the mavic air 1 since 2018 and have been looking to get a sub 250g drone these few years. But none of the sub 250g releases by dji could match my air 1 in terms of obstacle avoidance and intelligent flight modes. Just not very keen with this controller design which looks bulky.

[@fj1100mark]

Absolutely amazed that there was a firmware update considering the dumb things only been out a week

[@AirPhotography]

We get that a lot with drones and GoPro’s and other cameras. I think it’s because they’re manufactured months in advanced getting ready for launch. So as they sit in the warehouse firmware is updated to fix problems and add new features.

[@mr.vaibhav_abc]

Bro price

[@skyaerialview]

The control sticks are stored by screwing them into the holes in the back of the controller.

[@lynsmith1096]

Good first look video

[@AirPhotography]

Thanks Lyn and thanks for watching

[@retroonhisbikes]

Mode 1 or mode 2? I fly mode 2

[@AirPhotography]

Mode 2 is the default mode and that’s what I fly as well

[@retroonhisbikes]

@@AirPhotography great news thats dude, digging the wound on the right hand

[@pantster9855]

God I was really hoping they could make a small controller. Whats the point in a tiny drone you can take anywhere and have big controller. Earlier style DJI controller would be great

[@AirPhotography]

A great point 👍

[@sarvamhathayoga]

Hi, great to see you grow. I have also started making videos

[@f13dfx]

Hi Sean! I also bought from Autelpilot. I paid $949 for the Nano+ Premium Bundle along with an additional $80 USD to take care of the Customs Duty & Tax up front. To my surprise I got billed another CAD $40.65 by DHL Express for more Duty & Tax. Is this correct?

[@AirPhotography]

I just checked my records and I had to pay 44.20 in duty from DHL. I don’t think I paid anything upfront. I’ll have to look at my receipt

[@f13dfx]

@@AirPhotography So did they charge you another $80 USD on your receipt for Customs Clearance?

[@Kkp-s5c]

I like your video

[@DavesRvRepair]

Very informative my friend.

[@FEWER1984]

Where do you buy one of these in Canada? anyone ???

[@shinythegoat1389]

This drone will force DJI to add obstacle aviodence, active track, POI and more of that good stuff to the mini 3

[@AirPhotography]

Yes indeed competition is good 👍

[@JK_cookie00]

I'm not too convinced until I see the Mini 3

[@TarzanBali]

Cool color ))

[@nicholasdisabatino1697]

I am excited about this product but what I find maybe uncanny is how similar things are to DJI. The cables, charging nd overall design is so similar to DJI I am surprised there are not patent issues.

[@AirPhotography]

Indeed, I’m surprise that somebody wasn’t able to Paten folding drone design. I think the GoPro Karma was the first drone on the market that folded.

[@ordinaryhuman3111]

Now I'm excited to see how the DJI Mini 3 will fare against the Autel Nano+!

Indeed, it’s gonna be very interesting to see what DJI releases

[@dosomestuff1949]

When is it coming

[@Emuspaul]

"...nowhere to store the sticks....." as you flip it around showing the two holes to screw the sticks into....

[@AirPhotography]

Yes I seen the hack that some have come up with. Those holes are not threaded that’s not from the manufacture, you have to thread them yourself. But it is a nice work around

[@Emuspaul]

Sadly, this only looked good at the beginning but real world tests prove otheriwse. Maybe I expected too much because it was pegged to be DJI's close competitor but flight quality is not even close.
