Autel Robotics Intelligent Flight Control System

Autel EVO drones are to conduct stable and convenient flight control by its built-in intelligent flight control system. This system can support multiple advanced functions, including coursereversal, fail-safe, positioning system, etc. 

Flight mode

EVO Nano series and EVO Lite Series supports the standard, ludicrous and smooth modes which can be switchedon APP.

  • Standard mode
Use the GPS module and downward vision system to realize the accurate hovering, steady flight and quick shot functions of aircraft. In the case of good GPS signal, the GPS will beused for precise positioning; in the case of poor GPS signal, the vision systemwill be usedfor positioning when the light conditions are as required. If the light conditions meet the requirements of vision system, the maximum flight attitude angle will be 25°, and the maximum flight speed will be 10m/s.
  •  Ludicrous mode
Use the GPS module and downward vision system to realize accurate hovering. After the aircraft control sensibility is adjusted, the maximum flight speed will rise to 15m/s, the maximum rising speed will be 5m/s, and the maximum descending speed will be 4m/s.
  • Smooth mode
Limit the flight speed based on standard mode, namely, the maximum flight speed as 5m/s, the maximum rising speed as 3m/s and the maximum descending speed as 2m/s, to make the aircraft more stable during shooting. The Autel EVO drone will enter the attitude (ATTI) mode when the GPS signal is poor, the compass is disturbed and the vision positioning conditions fail to be met. 

Intelligent flight features

1. Auto return

The return function is enabled only when there is good GPS signal. To want to enable the return function manually, long press the return button on the remote controller or click the return icon on Autel Sky App. Upon receipt of the instruction, the aircraft will automatically return and land on the preset return point

2. Fail-safe

The fail-safe function is to help EVO Nano series and EVO Lite series UAVs to return automatically or land at its current position when necessary. The fail-safe will be activated in the following situations:
1) Communication outage
If the communication between the aircraft and the remote controller interrupts for 3s, thefail-safe function will be activated.
If there is available GPS signal when the fail-safe function is activated, the aircraft will enablethe auto return function. Otherwise the aircraft will land on the spot. After communication restoration, you can still press the pause button ( ) or click the pause icon ( ) in Autel Sky App to recover the control on the aircraft.
2) Low battery of aircraft
The aircraft will continuously calculate the battery level required to the return point. When the battery level reaches the maximum level required to the return point, Autel Sky App will show a notification. The fail-safe will be activated to start the return process. 
A. When the aircraft battery level reaches the set threshold (25% by default), you will receive one low battery alarm, and the fail-safe will be activated to start the auto return of aircraft.
B. When the battery level reaches 15%, you will receive one serious low battery alarm, andthe aircraft will automatically land on the spot.

3. Landing features

1) Landing protection
When the evo nano mini drone or the Autel evo lite drone arrives above the return point, the landing protection function will be activated to detect the ground environment. If the ground is flat, the aircraft will landautomatically. Otherwise it will hover on the spot to wait for the next instruction.
2) Precise landing
When the precise landing function is activated, the aircraft will scan and match the topographic features. If the current topography is matched with that at the take-off point, it will land as close to the take-off point.
Autel robotics drones are able to tarket DJI. The evo nano series and evo lite series are the newest release of Autel Robotics.
