The biggest highlight of the Lite+ is Dynamic Track 2.1, a technology similar to DJI's ActiveTrack that allows the drone to follow some objects defined by the pilot. However, this technology is currently only available on the EVO Lite+ model and, according to the firmware announcement, only focuses on people. It's the drone we have, so we'll be doing some testing over the next few days. Questions remain to what extent the company will release this feature to other models, and when it can be used to track more than just people.
The "Tracking" function is activated through an option in the main menu located on the right side of the AUTEL SKY app screen, not all models have all functions, such as Dynamic Track which is only available for the EVO Lite+, but the EVO Nano+ mini drone is available via PDAF + CDAF The dual autofocus system also tracks fast-moving subjects with incredible precision.
Here are the details of what's new in these latest updates.
