Unbinding an Autel Evo drone from the Autel Explorer app might seem straightforward, but it’s not as simple as clicking a button. Unlike binding a new drone or email, the app doesn’t offer a clear “unbind” option. This article explains the process of unbinding your Autel Evo and provides insights into why this process requires Autel support.
Autel Evo drones are registered and bound to a user account within the Autel Explorer application. This binding process links the drone’s serial number to your email address, ensuring proper registration and enabling features like flight logs and firmware updates. However, situations may arise where you need to unbind a drone, such as selling it, transferring ownership, or resolving technical issues.
The Autel Explorer app interface, while comprehensive for many drone management tasks, doesn’t provide a user-accessible way to unbind an aircraft. You’ll see options to bind new drones or email addresses, but no direct way to remove an existing binding. This is where Autel support comes into play.
To unbind your Autel Evo, you need to contact Autel support directly. Autel’s engineers have access to the backend systems required to disassociate your drone from your account. This process usually involves verifying your ownership of the drone and confirming your request. While flight logs remain in your history, the drone itself will be unbound, allowing a new owner to register and operate it.
One user shared their experience of needing to unbind their drone after an incident in Chicago. During a night flight, their drone was apparently shot down, requiring replacement. After contacting Autel support, the damaged drone was unbound from their account within 15 minutes.

While the inability to unbind a drone directly through the app might seem inconvenient, it’s likely a security measure to prevent unauthorized unbinding and potential theft. By requiring direct contact with Autel support, the company can ensure the legitimate owner is initiating the process.
In conclusion, unbinding an Autel Evo requires contacting Autel support. They can quickly and efficiently unbind your drone, allowing for a smooth transition to a new owner or resolving any technical issues that may require unbinding. While the app doesn’t offer a direct unbind option, the process through Autel support is generally straightforward and effective. If you need to unbind your Autel Evo, don’t hesitate to reach out to Autel support for assistance.
