I really hope that 3DR (or Apple) steps up and fixes this.

I'm going to pick up a ThinkTank HeliPak. I'm a photographer who owns way too many bags and most of them are ThinkTanks, their quality can't be beat.

I agree. I've been thinking about it for a while this tonight and I'm just going to get another and keep the dead for parts with the possibility of getting it fixed somewhere down the road.

It's looking like my Solo (aka Capt Sully) is going to need to be sent in for repair. With a new battery installed it's still not coming online. I'm guessing that the tree that it hit before it went into the water did some some damage as one of the motors just twitches. So I'm considering...

I tried the GoPro this AM and it's a NoPro for the time being, it doesn't even power on. I tried it on a USB cable and no luck there either. It's been sitting in a bag of rice for a couple of days now and I'm hoping that it decides to come back to life. I might pack it into some silica gel. I...
