What End of Support Means in DroneSense

After the EoS dates listed above:

DroneSense will not:

• Test backward compatibility for these devices in new app releases

• Develop new features for these aircraft

• Validate the performance of these aircraft in updates

• Provide hardware-specific technical support

DroneSense will continue to:

• Allow customers to fly these aircraft in DroneSense (functionality may vary)

• Provide full technical support for issues unrelated to the discontinued hardware

• Maintain aircraft and flight records in the DroneSense Web interface

Agencies may continue using these aircraft at their discretion, but should be aware that compatibility cannot be guaranteed as mobile apps evolve.

Recommended Upgrade Path

For organizations continuing with Autel aircraft, DroneSense recommends transitioning to:

• Autel EVO II v3 Series

• Autel Max 4 Series

These platforms are actively supported by Autel and are validated within the DroneSense ecosystem.
