Autel Robotics Releases Software and Firmware Updates for App and EVO Drones
Autel Robotics on 9 May 2022 announced the availability of software updates for its EVO series of drones, specifically the Nano and Lite editions, as well as a software update for its Autel Sky App.
For the Evo Lite, the promise of new features and other improvements include: Dynamic Tracking Support which apparently ‘keeps a person in frame’ like a personal watchman, think ‘selfie-in-motion’ and has several modes for ‘smart following’ and ‘object avoidance.’ The Evo Nano+ is expected to gain optimization and improvements in the form of wind resistance (within reason), flight control gimbal stability, and some ‘minor’ fixes such as file color error, photo number display, exposure lock and hyper lapse camera issues.
Image stabilization, four-axis gimbal, and 60 frames per second video sending are improvements one could expect for the Evo Lite series, especially in difficult conditions, but only in hyperlapse mode when hovering. The author cautions the user/enthusiast to maintain reasonable expectations about the resilience/resistance of these light-weight devices in harsh environments.
Autel promises that the Evo and Lite series can now have an enhanced user interface that “integrates into Shoot, Video, and Pro mode, putting professional parameter settings at your fingertips.”
While these aspects of these releases may not seem particularly ground breaking, it’s good that many of the bug fixes could be addressed with software/firmware updates; as a result, the customer experience should be a much better one.
