Autel Robotics Drone Data Recovery

Recovery of Autel Robotics footage, stills and thermal captures from the camera media, payload or controller that held them — evaluated against the aircraft's hardware generation and fitted camera.

models listed for evaluation

Recovery brief

Recovery brief

Where data may reside
microSD on EVO Nano and consumer EVO Lite; camera media on EVO II by V1/V2/V3 generation; payload media and ground-station files on Dragonfish; controller copies on Enterprise and legacy EVO/X-Star.
What customers typically need
Visible-light and thermal imagery from EVO Lite Enterprise, EVO Max and 640T cameras, RTK mapping imagery with its mission files, and legacy EVO or X-Star recordings.
The Autel Robotics constraint
Recoverability is tied to the installed camera and hardware revision, so an unlabelled EVO II must have its generation established first.

Media path

Where the data can live

Where an Autel recording can sit. Each source applies only where the catalog documents it for that model.

  1. microSD card

    EVO Nano, consumer EVO Lite and Dragonfish DG-T5/DG-T5L

  2. Camera / payload media

    EVO II 6K Pro and 640T cameras; Dragonfish payload recording media

  3. Ground-station files

    Dragonfish ground-station files, separate from the payload

  4. Controller & app copies

    Enterprise and legacy EVO/X-Star controllers; phone or app copies

Before you send

What to submit

  • The microSD card or camera media, even if it appears empty
  • The aircraft with its label visible, so the EVO II generation can be confirmed
  • The fitted camera or Dragonfish payload
  • The controller or ground station if it may hold a copy
  • The model name and a short note of what happened

Directory

Supported systems

Listed models are supported for evaluation of available recording media and associated devices. Recovery depends on data location, media condition, encryption, and whether the requested data remains present.

Process

How the case is handled

  1. 01

    Identify where the requested data was recorded.

  2. 02

    Inspect the media or device that holds it.

  3. 03

    Report what data is recoverable.

  4. 04

    Recovery proceeds only with your approval.

Questions

Why does the EVO II generation matter?
Autel ties recoverability closely to the installed camera and hardware revision. EVO II aircraft exist in V1, V2 and V3 generations, so we establish which one you have before evaluating the media.
Where does a Dragonfish store its data?
The payload recording media, aircraft logs and ground-station files are separate. We identify which of them holds the requested data; DG-T5 and DG-T5L payloads use microSD.
Can deleted or formatted Autel cards be evaluated?
Yes. Deleted or formatted microSD media from consumer EVO models can be evaluated; stop using the card so the requested data is not overwritten.
Pricing: diagnostic fee $195, credited toward your recovery price. Typical drone recovery runs $500–$1,500, confirmed after evaluation. See drone pricing

Catalog checked against manufacturer documentation. Source-backed aircraft and meaningful camera/hardware configurations from current and legacy official catalogs. Supported models means available for technical evaluation, subject to actual media, damage, overwrite and encryption; it does not claim successful recovery from every listed model. No claim that every regional SKU, prototype or custom payload is cataloged.

Excluded or unverified: Kestrel: documented as a CES prototype/concept in the official 2017 announcement; no verified generally supplied production model in this audit, so not listed as a routine supported aircraft.; EVO Nest, Dragonfish Nest, repeaters, controllers, antennas, gimbals, batteries and care plans are accessories/ecosystem products, not extra aircraft models.; No EVO II 8K V3, EVO II Dual 320 V3, EVO II Dual 640R V3, or EVO II Enterprise V1 added without configuration-specific evidence.; Autel EVO III regional radio variants, specialized custom platforms and payload permutations require case-specific identification; no invented retail model names..
