    Solo won't start up... any ideas?

    I'm so happy for you... I'm glad you had such a great customer service experience and that your life allows for you to sit on hold on a personal call during business hours. Unfortunately, my work situation and 3DR CS experience differs from yours.

    Solo won't start up... any ideas?

    I have tried calling, but my work environment does not allow me to make personal calls, and I certainly can't sit on hold on a personal call while I am in meeting with a client, which pretty much all I do all day at work. And what do you mean by "call the number on the bottom of the RMA"? I have...

    Solo won't start up... any ideas?

    No, they made it clear to me that they need me to return the 2 motor pods before they'll send me the new ones. The issue is, how do I return them??? They said they have set up an RMA for me, and would e-mail me FedEx shipping label(s) that I should use to ship my pods to them. But they never...

    Solo won't start up... any ideas?

    Just to update you all on my issue... it's been well over a month since I contacted 3DR Support, and I STILL don't have a working SOLO... Each time I would e-mail them, it would take them a few days to respond (despite their promises of replies within 24 hours). Eventually I was able to...

    Solo won't start up... any ideas?

    Yeah... after 3 days, I finally got a response to my ticket, and they mentioned the process of checking each motor, which I did. Now it's been another 3 days and still waiting for another response... this is what I last sent them: ----------------- Thanks for responding to my ticket. Nothing...

    Is it worth upgrading from a Hero 3+ to Hero 4 Black?

    The Hero4 does produce better still photos than the 3+, but it's not *significantly* better... not worth the $$$ you'd need to spend to upgrade the camera (and new spare batteries, since they're not compatible). My opinion is, the $$$ you'd spend to update your GoPro would be better spent on...

    Is it worth upgrading from a Hero 3+ to Hero 4 Black?

    Depends on what you're using your GoPro for... is 4K resolution at a usable FPS (30+) important to you? If so, you might want to upgrade to the Hero4 Black. But if HD/1080 resolution is all you need, your 3+ will be sufficient. Just my opinion...

    Solo won't start up... any ideas?

    I did go through the factory reset of both controller and Solo. That is when it seemed to come back to life, when I stuck that paper clip in the "pair" hole... although, I don't remember seeing the "internal LED adjescent to the Pair button start rapidly flashing orange" (yes, "adjacent" is...

    Solo won't start up... any ideas?

    Hi everyone... this is my first post here... I submitted a ticket to the 3DR help desk already and their auto-reply says they are extremely busy and I might not hear from them for 3 days. So I thought I'd post what I wrote on the ticket here to see if anyone has suggestions: ---------------- Hi...
