I got the Autel Evo 2 this past summer and it is a beast, literally the size of a brick, thanks to your channel I can't wait to drive out your way from Chicago to see and and fly at this canyon....
Another *win* - ...you wont find me flying in that kind of cold. Glad to see some satisfaction for you from #Autel Marcus, hope to see you at the SFDM. #TeamAutel
Hi Marcus, great video and commentary. Can't believe that the video looks so great, even though the lens had a cellophane protective cover on it. The quality of the video was absolutely great. Thanks again for braving the cold Marcus and I have said it before, what a fantastic location.
Really enjoyed the video from this drone. I will try to get the wife to show this on the big screen tv. You did a great job of showing the snake river canyon.
Marcus,. Another great Snake River Canyon adventure. The snow looks really Cool (No pun intended). Watching the national weather it looks like your region may be in line for a lot more of the white fluffy stuff. Stay warm, Fly safe and thanks for sharing. Outstanding Quad and Outstanding flight. Thanks again for sharing.
Another awesome video Marcus, I really liked the low flight through the canyon and always enjoy seeing the changes that they make in the compass like marker. Thanks for sharing 👍👍
Thanks, Marcus! Though I’m a loyal DJI customer, I’m glad to see they have a worthy competitor! That only makes products get better and give better value to users!
You take us to great, scenic places for your flights. The Canyon looks good today, but I love that sky. Winter is here for sure. On this day, December 11, I flew for about 40 minutes-cloudy and 30 degrees F. Keep warm and I’ll look forward to your next video. Cheers from Wisconsin.
Nice drone! Great carefree flight and fabulous color coordination between that jacket and the A.E. Lite+. Flying low was a hoot and definitely confirms that my next "Springtime" flight there will include a similar route. The HDR color rendition was excellent and don't feel bad about your Mr. Automatic settings. Super video, with no surprises, especially considering the chill factor. Thanks for sharing! 🤠
Sign, sign Everywhere a sign Blockin' out the scenery Breakin' my mind Do this, don't do that Can't you read the sign? And the sign said "Anybody caught trespassin' Will be shot on sight" So I jumped on the fence and I yelled at the house "Hey! POWWWwww! Love the Autel Lite+ a solid effort from Autel. That there is no Smart Controller is a huge miss though. This is the ONLY drone I own that still needs a phone or tablet to fly. 🙄
Nice going! I like the negative altitude flights down through the canyon! That Autel flew so well that I would have thought it was a DJI. Now you need to get a coat to match your Mavic 3
Awesome video. I had been thinking of purchasing one for over a month, and then they were available for $999 from the Autel storefront on eBay. I grabbed it, thinking that I could sell it if I didn't like it. This is my first non-DJI drone. I've only been able to fly it twice, but it seems like it's a keeper.
Great first flight, the canyon looked awesome in the winter light, and Lite Plus captured it very well. I'm glad you had a trouble free flight with drone, the battery life was great and RTH worked very well. If only they could have made the drone a little faster, so it could flight more wind at places like the canyon. But overall a good buy at the current sale prices. Thanks for sharing Marcus.
Wow! Great flight I really enjoyed the views,the camera on that thing looks incredible hopefully you’ll get it out again once the weather improves. Looks like a really nice drone I’d like to add to my fleet someday…..
Hello,,your videos teach me alot ,,i cant thank you enough, ive gain much knowledge just by watching your channel,,an know what to buy aswell,i fly the DJI mini SE,,great Drone,i just cant get over that Snake River Canyon beautiful site fly safe. :Don Cole Lincoln Nebraska:
Nice review of your first flight with the EVO Lite+. I think you may be a little spoiled with the Mavic 3 though, Marcus. If we were to compare apples-to-oranges, the DJI would have to be the apple because that Autel is definitely orange! 😂 I'm looking forward to more.
Hi Marcus, great video showing the Autel Lite+. When Autel drones work as specified, they work well. My Autel EVO 2 gives me video as good as my Mavic 3. The more competition, the better both Autel and DJI consumer drones become. Also, the lower the cost.
Knew this was coming... Jealous watching you rip the canyon; I was waiting to see a bear! Love the scenery! And BTW... the Autel Evo Lite+ Drone is a very capable solid drone and very responsive... Almost pulled the trigger! BTW: Foxy Roxy is new (gave me a laugh too).
Excellent drone. I have a mavic mini 2 and use it for photos, i shoot panos and there good and was considering the mini 3 pro but looked at sample photos and the Evo lite plus photos are on a different level. Evo will be my next drone
Impressive video and flight, Marcus! Of course, the Canyon provided a beautiful backdrop for your flight with Autel Evo Lite+. The video you captured looked fabulous to me. I'm a DJI-guy and have never flown any other brand, but I have to tell you, I'm considering adding an Autel product to my small fleet since seeing this video. It looked so smooth and effortless to fly the Evo Lite+. Happy holidays and stay warm!
What a lovely flight... Felt a little slow watching it. Video footage and colours are very nice Excellent as always Edit: was just exploring the snake River canyon via Google earth. Didn't see the area you fly... Such a huge area!
@@IdahoQuadcopter ah brilliant found it!!! So if you were to fly straight across the canyon you'd also be able to see the snake river! What a majestic and ancient landscape!
Very nice flight and great to finally see you testing a very capable drone. I wish it was not so expensive and I haven't seen them anywhere in Canada although I'm sure they're available somewhere. I've also got spoiled with the RC Pro Controller and have a hard time going back to my phone. Neat to see you drop. down into the Canyon and get some good flying.
As you know I love watching your videos, I’m so grateful. I had to sell my drones to pay for my mom’s funeral. I know this is a big favor and question but would you consider selling one of your drones for a low discounted rate? It was and is my therapy, I’m really really missing flying. Thank you for your hard work and dedication, I know it’s not easy making all these videos
Looks like a great drone Marcus. I wish Autel had more than two speeds available but the camera looks really good. Definitely a good price on this drone now. Thanks for another great review!
It has 3 speeds he should know that as well really? It has Smooth Standard and Ludicrous no idea why people make up stuff to put down the Autel drones it has 3 speeds not 2 I own the drone and it is incredible plenty fast and incredible battery life. I’m sure if they wanted to make it faster they could but that’s why it can stay in the air 35 min plus. Air 2 s is also about 300 grams lighter so of course it should be faster considering the price point.No way u are getting 46 min out of a mavic 3, not to mention it is twice the cost.
@@earnestgriffin4838 The only thing that happened in this thread was praise for the Lite+. Why so defensive? The fact is, the Lite+ is slow compared to other drones in it's class. That doesn't mean that it's not a great product. I really like the drone and am glad that I bought it.
@@IdahoQuadcopter Im not being defensive but I hate when people give inaccurate information. Besides the speed of the drone which isnt important and u say its class when its really in between the air 2s and mavic 3. You didnt address the fact it has 3 speeds not 2 which is inaccurate atleast correct your error in the comments. You agreed with inaccurate information which is all im saying and it may sway a person from any product if they value your thoughts and opinions.
Nice drone, Marcus! If I hadn´t just bought the MAVIC 3 CLASSIC I would seriously consider that one! BTW.: are you going to make a video about the waypoint mission capability that DJI just added to the MAVIC 3?
Hi Marcus.....Really nice video over the wall. Yeah....I think the Air 2S has a little more zip to it. But it was a good solid flight. I hope to fly there again someday. Just need to time the weather so it not to hot. How long is the battery life in your jacket ? ....LOL....Really bright......😆
i def want this one marcus but i don't like the price tag that comes with it,i did pick up the evo nano standard and love it but im now starting to get disconnections from the transmitter when using the iphone x,i have to get it out with my android phone and see if it persists with that phone
Sorry to hear of your problems with the Nano. I use an iPhone 13, and then 14 Pro to fly my nano+ and disconnections were not a problem. I hope you get it sorted.
Great footage Marcus 👏. Love the low level flight up the Snake river . I just pulled the trigger on one of these upgrading from the FIMI X8 2022 . Do you think it more powerful than the Fimi
All was good with that flight. I have to say though that my Evo2 v1 always lands within one inch or so of take off. Mine doesn't feel bulky and it's probably due to getting the expo dialed in as I like.
I’ve owned this quad since launch. It’s not a terribly fast or powerful drone for its size. Heavy winds will give it some fits. The camera makes up for it though. Most of the early gimbal issues have been resolved as well.
@@IdahoQuadcopter I been looking at this drone and the DJI air 3 how much better is the air 3 in you opinion the combos that I've been looking at there's only $150 difference
Would you please use imperial measurements if you’re an American citizen and you’re Imperial imperial feet per second be high in feet low in the United States It is a great drone and it’s got a great camera. Smooth mode really great thank you for the video.

Loved the HDR quality on this drone, and really enjoyed how low you got to the river 👍
Thank you Alan! It was fun to fly the drone at negative altitude, at one point minus 125 meters.
Wonderful footage Marcus! 👍
Wish you a great day!
Many thanks! I'm really enjoying the Lite+ drone.
I got the Autel Evo 2 this past summer and it is a beast, literally the size of a brick, thanks to your channel I can't wait to drive out your way from Chicago to see and and fly at this canyon....
My friend Ron has the Evo 2. The cameras on these birds are amazing!
What a beautiful place to fly. Thanks for showing us the autell. Great video.
It's indeed my pleasure! Thank you!
Well done, Marcus. I've had one since they first came out. Can't wait until their smart remote is available and works with it!
Thank you Jeff! I'll be a buyer of Autel's smart controller too.
Great review Marcus looking forward to more 👍✨️✨️
Awesome thank you!
Great review and flight Marcus. I love mine. Enjoy
No doubt, I'll enjoy this drone a lot. Thank you!
YES! Very capable aircraft. Thank you for the great footage. Man! That drone is a smoothie. Excellent work, and thank you again.
Thank you! The Lite+ is the best of Autel's drones IMHO. 🙂
Great flight with a greate camera drone.👌
Yes, the highlight of this drone is the camera. 👍
Hi . I have his little brother ( Nano+ ) and both drones are great drones . Thanks for your videos .
Yep, I've got the Nano+ too. Autel is making some nice products. 👍
Very cool good job nice place to fly. Wish I had it. I just bought the same drum. It’s awesome.
Enjoy it! The Evo Lite has a great camera!
Nice Marcus! I was waiting for this video from you.
I'm glad you liked it! Thank you!
Another *win* - ...you wont find me flying in that kind of cold. Glad to see some satisfaction for you from #Autel Marcus, hope to see you at the SFDM. #TeamAutel
It was cold, but really great fun Tony! 🙂
Thats the one place I would love to fly AWSOME!!!
It's a fun place to launch a drone! thank you!
Fantastic video Marcus that Evo Lite+ is a great drone thanks for the great views 🎞️🎥📸🚁👍
I'm glad you enjoyed it, thank you!

Thank you Vince! That was the gimbal cover that had the plastic on it. The cover is removed during flight. I had a lot of fun flying that day! 😀

Thank you Joe! Johnnie told me that it's 80° in Hammond today. Yeah, we received more snow last night.
@@IdahoQuadcopter supposed to hit 80 tomorrow here near Houston.
Thanks Marcus what a beautiful location! Love your enthusiasm even when it’s freaking cold! Great review as always have a blessed holiday season.
Happy holidays, and thank you!
Well that was to be expected another great interview another great flight thank you Marcus 🙏👍🇺🇸
Thanks again Charles!
I like that nano let’s get that bird in the air
I like the little Nano too! 🙂
It does shoot great video, love the scenery. Nice hat too

beautiful display and handling. Happy holidays to you and family.

Thanks, Marcus! Though I’m a loyal DJI customer, I’m glad to see they have a worthy competitor! That only makes products get better and give better value to users!
Thank you! I'm a fan of DJIs products too, but it is nice to see a competitor. 👍

This drone is priced very aggressively. I'm sure Autel is selling a lot of them. 🙂
Bravo for staying out there as long as you did. It looked freezing. If you had to choose one or the other Autel Evo Lite or Aiir 2S?
It was cold, that's for sure. 😀 Both are great, I'd be happy with either one.

That's my only complaint. I wish it was a little more powerful. Yeah, the camera is amazing!
How is the tracking and OA of autel drones? Thinking of my next drone purchase. Is the nano + any good?
Autels drones have great cameras, the OA and tracking are of limited use.

No, the OA on the Lite Plus just brings the drone to a stop.
