Hi Everybody,
Like a lot of you guys, I went buying a RS2 years ago (3 years) just when all these Lidar stuff came affordable, at that price ~U$2,000 you wouldn´t buy anything with that specs. At first it was solid and reliable, no issues at all. This unit was threat like a baby, never crashed, hitted or got wet, still in perfect phisics condition. Suddenly, the unit stop working, it keeps flashing all lights constinuesly in boot mode and it never ends, can´t connect to app, can´t do nothing. After checking Emlid´s forum I see several similars cases and the answer is always the same: try reboot, try reflash,… Basically, there is no solution, if you contact Emlid support you gonna receive this type of answer:
"Hi Andre,
Thank you for bringing this to our attention. We thoroughly test our firmware before each release to ensure reliability across all devices. After your report, I also tested updating and reflashing an RS2 unit but couldn’t reproduce this issue. Based on the full system report and what you’ve shared, this doesn’t appear to be related to the software version. The logs you’ve seen seem to be a symptom of an issue with the unit itself, and reflashing hasn’t resolved it, which points to an issue with the unit. Unfortunately, the device is no longer under warranty, so we cannot offer a replacement. Let me know if you have any other questions."
I share with you guys because I know there is more people here with same problems, and for those who are thinking to buy it, think again…
Regards,
Andre
