Nice setup but the problem I have with Autel drones is the lack of precise control. Hope they could improve that next time

My EVO just arrived as your video concluded! The EVO looks fantastic and will be an improvement over my XSP. I'm sure they'll improve the rear obstacle avoidance in future FW updates. I can't believe all the DJI shills in here knocking the EVO. It flew great and the active tracking worked super! Seems only the orbit mode was a bit jerky and that'll be easy enough to smooth out in future updates. I'm not sure how soon I'll review mine. There's so much to cover. Thanks for this thorough video!

Three years later, but still valuable today. (Autel recently had some refurbished Evo 1s for sale. I'm in my mid-70s on a fixed income, and I have to buy what I can afford, not what's newest). I do always have to do a mental adjustment on some things. Here in the Mojave Desert, 5 - 15 mph isn't a windy day, it's the kind of calm day we look forward to when we get a break from the constant 30+ mph winds we live with.

From what I understand the avoidance sensor has a problem with vertical and small objects. Ie: It will still run into post and wires because there's not enough signal to bounce off of. I'ts good at avoiding walls, vehicles, flat surfaces or smashing into cliffs and if you try going faster on sport mode that shuts avoidance off .

my 2 cents. .. awesome camera so clear and crisp and nothing extra needed as in filters etc. .. yes it had a few little bugs while flying and the flight time etc .. but these are all sorted with software updates this is a new drone and will get lots of updates from autel. this drone is very very capable of anything the mavic can do easily remember the mavic hd a few severe issues also from the start and still people are very nervy when they see a new update etc .. now what to do what to do buy it or wait ???? but as always brilliant review and thanks { keeping you fit also dustin lol }

Hey Dustin great videos!!! Rear sensors are working and detecting you from more 10ft away as you can see from the green, then orange, then red lower radar display. It is not stopping by design, it is set to only warn you. I will be contacting Autel and ask them to switch it "avoid" the rear collision or at least give us the option to select "avoid" or "warn". All other sensor directions are designed to actually avoid the collision by making the drone stop.

I actually liked the rear avoidance NOT stopping but just warning. I launched from my front porch to fly around the yard. The front OA prevented me from hitting the trees, fence and house but when it came time to land, it wouldn't get any closet than about 6 feet from the porch.and I didn't want to land in the dirt on my first flight. So I just turned around and backed onto the porch and landed at my feet. So, I hope that when they update and implement the rear "avoidance" function, I can turn it off easily from the Tx or phone (like one of the programmable buttons).

You never tapped on START when you were in active track Tripod mode .. but it still seemed to work. Overall, looks pretty competitive to the Mavic Pro. Another Plus for this one over the Mavic is that you don't get the annoying pop up NFZ nag warnings .. that's a big plus I think. Video was excellent, even in those winds. Looking forward to see a range test and a RTH test ... Mahalo!

You can't outlaw 'dimwits' and 'stupid people' .. they existed in the past, they exist today, and they (like cockroaches) will be around in the future. I don't need any "Big Brother" Chinese Data Mining company telling me where to fly, and where not to fly. Half of their "Warnings" are invalid. I constantly get 'Warnings' about uncontrolled airports which haven't seen a take-off or landing in decades. To each his/her own. YMMV

You are basically renting the quad. Eventually you wont be able to fly anywhere as now even stupid parks are getting on the list. Some ahole does not want you flying will complain and have them add more land under NFZ. Of course dont fly by an airport but now its like everywhere.

Great review Dustin, I think you might be the most neutral drone reviewer, I think you mentioned Mavic less than anyone else and basically sang the praises and negatives of the EVO on it's own right, though you did mention it a bit. I feel a review should just be based on the item being reviewed and the comparisons left for actual comparison tests. Looking forward to your future reviews, specially would like to see how the video holds at a distance, not necessarily pushing it for miles but lets say how steady the image is at a mile or two. Good job, thank you.

I got The Mavic Pro and it's doing well, except for some odd gimbal issues and sometimes recalibrating mid air. And some tilt. I kinda want to get this one just to see what others offer. The only thing it lacks that Mavic Pro has is the 3D Mapping Capabilities
@darrylw9017
@darrylw9017 6 жыл бұрын
Well not really the only thing it lacks.. IT also lacks all 3rd party support. That is there are many companies that have written software that can be used to accomplish just about everything under the sun for the Mavic. The EVO lacks all of that support. The upside of the EVO is the price and the absence of GEO - NFZ. IMO the Mavic is more refined than the EVO but the EVO is not far behind and can be flown anywhere you are dumb enough to fly.

Dustin, is there a yaw speed adjust? The X-Star Premium has this adjustment. Also, are you able to turn on and off the avoidance? Does the higher speed rate negate the avoidance? The reason for these ?s is because on first flights many times unfamiliarity can cause missed features. Not to knock you or the EVO, but consider?
@DustinDunnill
@DustinDunnill 6 жыл бұрын
I did not see any adjustment for yaw speed. Yes you can turn off obstacle avoidance. I think this was a pretty realistic review of how it actually performed in these conditions out of the box. All I did was turn off beginner mode which apparently is the only mode rear OA is active in thus far.

I have searched the internet and I can not find a comparison of the video / photo quality of the Autel EVO vs Thor Mavic 2 Zoom ??? This seems like the most important comparison for those considering the EVO vs M2 Zoom. I have seen multiple comparison videos on the EVO vs M2 Pro, but that is not really a honest apples vs apples comparison. This is a really important review to me and I am sure many others who are on the fence about which bird to buy. I rest my case. Your reviews are the best! Mahalo

Antennas in between the phone and controller has been the best so far.

Excellent video Dustin. Regarding the disparity between the performance of the front and rear sensors, I can't help but wonder if the Evo is indeed functioning as intended. The front sensors activated AND halted the aircraft, whereas the rear sensors activated (thus gave warning) but did not impede motion. The manual is somewhat vague in this area as it specifically describes front sensor operation and execution separate from the rear sensor. Is this intentional?

Yes it is strange . Seems like if they can see the obstacle they should work in regular mode not only in beginner mode.

I wonder if you might do a newer video regarding the EVO, since this video was made there have been some major updates and lots of flyers think it’s the best drone of 2018 ! I’m only bringing this up because there were many issues that have been fixed since it’s official release four months ago.

Great review. Not a bad little drone, just not the Mavic killer I was hoping for. It is funny how DJI sets the bar and everyone else tries to follow. Every new drone is a blatant copy of the Mavic. And I'm not a DJI fanboy at all. Would just like some originality from time to time.

I’m wondering what ESC firmware Aultel robotics is using. It seems both the Xstar and this EVO are extremely loud. I’m not thinking it’s the motors or props but I’m almost certain it’s the esc’s and there software. It’s almost like there using old Simonk firmware on the esc’s

Great review video. The 4k video quality looks amazing on this drone. I recently upgraded from a Hubson h107c that I've been flying for the last four years or so to a Bebop 2 with sky controller 2 and its so much fun, I can't wait to find a good open area to play around with it more. Thanks for sharing and as always Keep Building👍

Wow Dustin, seems like a semi close competitor to the Mavic series. It is a shame about the rear obstacle avoidance though. that definitely needs worked on. as always love your in depth vids.

Interesting. No worse than the Mavic when it first came out (possibly better in some areas) but not quite as good as the Mavic pro now is. I don''t think it will be long at all before parity is achieved. Given the wind I was quite impressed with everything but the rear sensors _I think it is worth looking at that section with the video slowed down_... Were I in the market for such a quad I think that, on the basis of what I have seen so far, I'd still go for the known quantity that is the Mavic. That could change later. Great review as always

I got my Evo a week ago. I like it so far except for the horizon tilt. which seems to be a common issue for Autel. I heard Autel has a fix on the next FW update. I sure hope so. Again I like the Evo, but not over my Mavic Pro Platinum yet. BTW, I never got a case.

Wow 1000$ I think if they brought the price down to 600$ they would sell loads and sort the issue on rear avoidance that would do great.

The rear avoidance works as it's supposed to. It stops in novice mode. In regular mode it only gives warning tones thinking you are flying in tighter spaces on purpose.

Thanks for this! I know I'm not the only one hungry for info on this drone. I had thought that I need to get a P4P to do commercial applications like roof inspections, tower inspections, etc. Now I'm not so sure, this seems like a great product. Can you please do a test near a roof or something else that would simulate a commercial inspection, to see how stable it is when close to a structure? Also, orbit is terrible. LOL
