I am wondering which Atom drones parts are compatible with which other parts (controllers, batteries, props, other possibly compatible parts).
I have an Atom SE and just got an Atom LT. The controllers have the same model #, but are different colors. (SE parts are grey, LT parts are white) The batteries are different, but fit the same. I haven't yet tried interchanging the batteries in the drones, but the LT batteries fit and change in the SE charger. The props also appear to be the same. I have not tested them.
What parts have you determined to work interchangeably?
I plan on doing interchangeability tests myself with the different parts I have, but what do you know works and doesn't?
I know that the LT battery is heavier and may put the SE or the Atom over 250 grams, which is a legal issue if you are in the US and don't have a part 107 license. I will have to break out my scale for reloading to find out exactly what I can and can't do legally.
What I can say for certain is that the SE hub charger charges the LT batteries and remote with no problems.
I will post my results later on what I find compatible for certain, but so far the SE and LT batteries fit the same, but the LT battery is slightly heavier.
The remote for the LT and SE have the same model number, but the LT is white and the SE is grey. I haven't tried pairing the LT remote to the SE or vice versa yet, but will try that soon. I just want to fully test the new LT before I get too much into swapping stuff out.
The LT has less sensors on it and only operates in GPS mode. It's camera is only 2.5K not 4k. It is much harder (or maybe impossible) to land in your hand because of the sensor difference. I haven't been able to do it yet. When I grab hold it tries to take off on me. Otherwise the LT files pretty much the same outdoors.
I have read on Reddit that the Atom batteries and remote work in the SE, but don't have any experience with that.
So who else has different Atom drones and knows what is or isn't compatible? Post your experiences please.
Thanks
