Core Performance Advantages

1. Full-Environment Autonomous Flight & High-Precision Navigation

Autel Autonomy Autonomous Flight Technology

Equipped with a high-computing on-board chip and proprietary autonomous flight algorithm, the drone captures real-time 3D environmental data and automatically executes global path planning, 3D scene reconstruction, dynamic obstacle avoidance and smart return-to-home (RTH) in complex terrains including mountainous terrain, dense woodlands and urban canyons. It runs standardized inspection and survey missions without delicate manual control, drastically reducing operator workload, lowering training thresholds and improving mission consistency and efficiency.

High-Precision SLAM Visual Navigation

For scenarios with blocked satellite signals, weak GNSS or strong electromagnetic interference, the onboard SLAM visual navigation system outputs high-precision, low-latency distance and coordinate data, enabling seamless indoor-outdoor navigation and stable hovering even when satellite connectivity is lost. This capability breaks the traditional reliance of industrial drones on continuous satellite signals.

Multi-Constellation GNSS & Robust Anti-Interference System

It supports GPS + GLONASS + Galileo + BDS four-satellite constellation positioning, paired with Autel SkyLink 3.0 multi-band adaptive frequency hopping transmission to maintain stable control links and HD video feed even in electromagnetically complex environments. Maximum video transmission range reaches 15 km under FCC standards, supporting large-scale outdoor operations.

2. 720° Omnidirectional Multi-Sensor Fusion Obstacle Avoidance

Featuring a dual-system architecture of dual fisheye vision perception + millimeter-wave radar, the EVO Max 4T XE delivers 720° full-environment perception covering front, rear, top, bottom, left and right directions, enabling reliable all-day operation in variable weather and lighting conditions.
  • Vision Perception System: Dual pinhole lenses (front/rear) and dual fisheye lenses (top/bottom) provide full spherical visual coverage, identifying textured obstacles and working with on-board AI to execute path planning and dynamic collision avoidance.
  • Millimeter-Wave Radar Perception: 60GHz millimeter-wave radars (front/rear/up directions) penetrate haze, smoke and low light to reliably detect glass, thin power lines, water surfaces and other obstacles that challenge vision-only systems. The downward-facing radar assists precision landing and low-altitude obstacle detection.
  • Intelligent Avoidance Modes: Two selectable avoidance behaviors — Brake and Bypass — with customizable safety distance and warning distance thresholds. The system autonomously plans optimal detour paths, minimizing crash risk in low-altitude and cluttered operation environments.
Note: Millimeter-wave radar configurations vary by region to comply with local regulatory requirements; specifications are subject to the actual shipped version.

3. Industry-First A-Mesh Ad Hoc Networking

Breaking the limits of single-drone operations, A-Mesh technology enables free device-to-device networking between drones and ground terminals, establishing a local air-ground communication network for coordinated multi-drone missions.
  • Multi-Mode Team Operation: Supports “one controller to multiple drones” and “master-slave dual control” collaboration modes. Multiple units can join a single team for task division, live feed sharing and real-time data synchronization.
  • Off-Grid Operation: Works in remote areas with no cellular coverage — such as mountain valleys, tunnel environments and enclosed structures — to maintain inter-device connectivity, ideal for emergency rescue and covert operation scenarios.
  • Relay-Extended Range: Supports long-distance and obstacle-crossing transmission via drone-to-drone relay, extending effective operation radius and signal coverage far beyond the limits of a single aircraft.
