Air dodges have autocancel frames?

Using the demo, I can short hop air dodge with Mario, Pikachu, and Villager. Mega Man suffers lag from a short hop air dodge, while Link suffers lag from both a short hop and full hop air dodge.

Using air dodge from the air suggests a longer period before the landing lag ends from an air dodge, so I think that air dodge has autocancel frames from a short hop for lighter characters and possibly if you time it perfectly from the air.

What is an autocancel frame? When I do it with Mario its just his air dodge finishing before he lands. If that's the case I believe we just call it autocancellable

Isn't that just because Link and Mega Man fall faster than the other three, and land mid-dodge?

I believe they do because I have done this also, and performed some pretty graceful short-hop to air dodge bounce from one side of Battlefield to the other.

How soon are you performing the air dodge? Because it might be that the air dodge is ending before you land. Try performing a neutral air right before you land. If you do attack then it's just that the air dodge has already ended.
