I heard they hired the baboons from the flashy solo promo video to shoot the video using one of the returned solos from best buy....thats what I heard!

I found out the hard way that the bottom usb plug is for a camera that can accept over 5 v. I burned up the usb ports on 2 go cams using that cable. If you want to use the 3dr flight view set up you must run the single usb tarot cable that is supplied with the flight view kit from your go cam to...

Make sure you have the 2 yr full replacement policy on your gopro cam! you will need it. You get up to 3 full replaced cameras in a 2 yr period. I already used one of my three!

Solo pilots are more responsible...thats pretty funny. Im sure as soon as 3dr catches up with DJI..which will probably wont happen, there will be as many solos in the air as phantoms with guys doing stupid shit. I have watched a dozen videos of solo pilots flying carelessly.

Idiots...all of them! Holding up air ops for 30 minuteswhile cars burn on the highway! I hope they catch the dumb asses and hold them accountable.

The3dr iris pilots are having good luck with theirs. I had one with the dys 3 axis gimble on it. pretty smooth video and for less than 650 bucks for everything, not a bad way to go. Does all the fun follow me stuff and autonomous flights with decent flight times.

Nice to see some smooth video here on this site...shaky video drives me nuts!

Would like to hear your response once you get a gimble on your solo which ship is smoother. Pretty video!

So I think I figured out my dilemma with frying the go cam usb ports. I have been using the usb wire that was pre wired on the x8. I think its attached to the pix hawk and set up if you are using the mapping set up and has continuous voltage going to the cam and the shutter is controlled by...

If you are going to use the x8 for mapping/surveying running autonomous missions, I would say yes. Smooth video with out tons of post processing NO. I love the pixhawk for the autonomous flight, data logging/flight logs and telemetry infomation. Not impressed with the holding characteristics in...

Im having a problem burning up the usb port on my go pros. 3dr says that the go pro gets no power, but I shot a video of the bars on the go,pro cam moving like when its hooked to a wall charger whilecattached to the x8. After taking off the go cam, i can not get any data thruput or charging to...
