I bought Alientech Duo II Amplified Antenna - Enhanced Signal Performance for DJI RC in this store. I was worried about not being able to pay through PayPal, because I am physically in Ukraine, but in vain. The seller sent the goods very quickly, constantly communicated and also added accessories to the antennas. I definitely recommend both the store and the product.
Working with the owner on multiple levels was a good thing. Fast, efficient service at a great price! Highly recommend!
My order arrived missing the antenna coaxial cables leaving me unable to do the installation.I have to wait until Monday morning to contact Covert Drones.
I had Covert drones (Luke) install an alien tech signal booster, very happy with everything.
Really appreciate you taking the time to write this Mark. Means the world to me when I can see you call me out like that. I try my hardest to make sure that everyone is and stays happy. Without you and your hard earned money you spent with me, my business is nothing. Hope we can do more business in the future my friend.

I purchased this for the purpose of performing aerial inspections as well as photogrammetry for my small business. Though the Drone itself suffers a bit vs DJI in terms of software handling it's honestly really good at what it does. What I cannot understate however is the fantastic Service provided by Covert Drones (Luke). I plan to eventually purchase as many items as possible exclusively from here in the future!
The DUO II has turbo charged the transmission performance on my EVO 2 Pro V2! The distance and transmission quality is outstanding and made this a no regrets purchase. Luke, the owner, proved customer service is alive and well. He modified the stock controller the day he received it and made sure to I was dialed-in on how to use it. Definitely will turn to Covert Drones for any future drone needs! A+ all around!
This is a >250 drone that does what I want it to do, high quality video and pictures. I have a number of other drones, some Autel, some...the other brand. Each have their own plus and minus, IMO. Do I plan on flying it in high winds? No, nor would I with any other >250 drone. I use it for tight spots, for a quick carry with me and it does what I want. The video and flight since it's firmware upgrade have been excellent. I really like Autel's color profile. Now onto Covert Drones. What can I say, they did what they said they'd do. They responded to questions and I got the drone. They were prompt and professional, I like that and to me, it's rare nowadays. Thanks guys!
Hey i was wondering could anyone tell me if this 4hawks antenna is compatible with the v2 model of the autel evo 2 or just the v1 model.
Having only flown Autel platforms, I find the Smart Controller very nice and definitely not too big or heavy – as seems to be the common complaint from those use to other brands.
The Smart Controller routinely provides better turning and gimbal control than can be achieved on the regular Autel Remote controller, and the screen can clearly be seen in the brightest of sunlight.
Needing Improvement: The image transmission range of my Version 2 Smart Controller breaks up at distances my standard controller handled with no problems: the Smart Controller’s Connectivity and GPS signal strength icons show solid full- or near full-strength connectivity during these times when the image transmission totally breaks up and or freezes, thereby rendering the Smart Controller’s utility severely hampered. And should the aircraft become temporarily disconnected from the Smart Controller, it takes a minimum of 5-10 seconds longer for connectivity and useable image transmission to be reestablished than it does on the standard Remote controller. So if you’re thinking of getting the Smart Controller to fly longer distances than can be achieved with the standard Remote controller – don’t count on it no matter what the Autel specification sheet is touting.
Summary: straight out of the box, the Smart Controller has strong pros and worrisome misses. If soon-coming firmware updates can correct the aforementioned problems, I’d gladly give this unit a 5 instead of 3-stars rating.
Minor gripe: the 3-point Chest Harness strap has bare metal connectors which will most likely and quickly scratch off the paint of the Smart Controller at the connecting points. Since I've not really found a need for using the Chest Harness during any full day of flying (from daybreak to dusk), I've not bothered to gen up any additional velcro strap extenders to alleviate this problem. (Given no one is going to be showing off their Smart Controller in equivalent car show setting, but there's no use in needlessly having paint scratched off due to a design oversight.)
Isn’t it illegal to operate a drone from inside of a car or any other moving Vehical?
However, will buy two additional lights for autel evo pro 2 - Foxfury D3060 This should incease the night light coverage.
Thanks for all your help.

Applying the SmartController adapter was easy, did have to remove one tightening lock nut on each side of SmartController connecters so AlienTech adapter would screw in completely. This helps keep AlienTech adapters locked in position with tight swivel, terrific product to secure AlienTech booster onto Autel SmartController. Definitely needed to add on an AlienTech booster to Autel SmartController, glad I went with these adapters.
If you upgraded the EVO controller to the extended range antennae this is the perfect solution for short range flights without the weight and hassle.
I ordered this antenna on Sep 17th and as of Oct 4th have not rcvd the parts that were missing when it partially arrived on Sep 28th. Oh yeah, and I paid over $100 thus far in express shipping fees. $40 of which has since been refunded. Still pretty crazy that it takes almost a month to get something shipped from state to state, inside the U.S.
In suburban areas I get about 30-40% more range than the stock. 5 stars are for Covert drones and great customer service. They are my source for Autel products.
If you're considering a modified controller, my experience with both the controller and Covert Drones would suggest that you should stop reading this and click the Complete Purchase button now.
