We have had a barage of around the clock TV reports due to the current flooding situation in parts of the Houston area. Some of the video has been aerial shots of the affected areas submitted by folks like us with Solo, DJI, etc. Seems like the TV stations would have their own birds by now...

Is anyone had any problems updating to the latest software version for GoPro 4 Silver? Mine works fine now, but I'm reluctant to upgrade after the problems I had when I updated my 3+ last month.

Mostly I have encountered some areas that have good GPS at times and poor GPS at other times. These areas are less than wide open space. This of course is affected by the ever changing position of the GPS Sats. Regardless of the number of Sats, I think the HDOP is very important. I never fly on...

Thanks for all the input. It WAS facing south when it went crazy. And I did determine the metal was from the screws. Cleaned it out, put back together and seems to be working fine. This forum is great. I appreciate everyone's help.

Installed gimbal last week. Had problems with GoPro, but got that fixed. Took the battery tray out to make sure no problem with cable routing, proper clearance, etc. Gimbal worked perfectly until this evening. I wanted to take it for a quick test flight in anticipation of tomorrow, which was...

Here we go again with more drone drama. I installed my gimbal a few days ago. I even took the battery tray out to make sure the wires were positioned correctly. It has been working fine. Since I was going tomorrow to try to do something real with this thing I decided to give it one more test...

I went through this same thing for 3 long days last week. GoPro 3+ will NOT stream video if you have updated the GoPro software to version 03.xx. The 3+ will lock up and will only turn off by removing the battery from it. You have 3 choices to correct the problem. 1. Downgrade the GP software...

I struggled two and s half days last week trying to get GP 3+ silver to work with my new gimbal. The problem had its origin in a GP update. Things seem to change hour by hour with 3dr support. Anyway, after the third day I decided to end the misery and get a GP.4 silver. I had purchased the...

I got a gimbal last week. Install went fine. I was using a 3+ Silver which seemed to work (had streaming video) then I updated the GoPro software. The update caused the same problems that everyone has listed. Loss of video and hard lock up. Spent a lot of time on phone with 3DR techs. 3DR...

t got my gimbal from BB last Wednesday, installed and GoPro 3+ Silverand everything seemed fine until i updated the GoPro software to version 03.02. After updating I lost video streaming. Called 3DR support next morning and they said problem with GoPro update. The tech said they had fixed it...

The GoPro camera (3+) software was updated via the GoPro app using WiFi.

Picked my gimbal today at BB. Fairly easy istall. The gimbal worked fine except the image was inverted. No problem. I decided to use wifi to change the orientstion because I wanted to run through all the other settings anyway. The app also I neded to update which I did. After the update I...

Just ordered one from BB. Its waiting on me at BB store right now. If you are in the Houston area the BB stores at the Galleria and the Woodlands have them.

Just ordered gimbal from Fry's online. Estimated delivery 9/16. We'll see. If the gimbals become available at stores before that, I'll be on it. There are 3 Fry's stores located here in Houston, so maybe I'll get lucky.

I don't know anything about manufacturing and distribution of products from China. If the gimbal is ready to send to the assembly line and the first batch has been shipped, why would they not continue to crank them out to with no interuption.. I don't know how many gimbals were sold, but it...
