    Finally, success. The setup the guy above described works well. First, this cable...

    Tie replacement on the railroad. It's complicated.

    It's like an episode of "How did they do it?".

    Secondhand solo purchase with issue

    Might be an easy fix, might not. $100 for a possibly "for parts" machine seems a bit high to me. Just my opinion.

    Anybody Else use Solo for Mostly Just Flying...?

    I do use those 2 for flying. Backyard flying. Mainly to practice manual flying without risking my gimbal/GoPro. But in the end I got them to ensure a source of replacement parts for my main bird. And those 2 Solos are the result of cobbling together 3 E-Bay non functioning Solos.

    Anybody Else use Solo for Mostly Just Flying...?

    I have 3 Solos. 1 somewhat modified (GPS, motors, WiFi) with Gimbal and GoPro 4. The other 2 are stock for backyard flying, but are basically "Organ Doners".

    FPV set up

    After a few Emails with Fat Shark, they say for their Panel to work with an HDMI feed, the source (controller) has to be set to 720P. Not sure that is the case with the Solo, but I am guessing it is not, or even possible. Plan B is a setup as this guy describes.

    Ah, missed that little detail.

    FPV set up

    Cable is in the port as far as is possible. Got a new cable due to arrive tomorrow, if no luck with this one, it's Plan B. Getting a Slimport is plan C.

    Finally have video feed working

    GoPro 4 Black. Plugged the MHDMI cable into the controller and the Fat Shark Transformer but get no image. Viewer is set to HDMI Full. Have check cables, and both input and output from other sources.

    Great, how did you get it to work? I can't seem to figure it out with mine.

    FPV set up

    Can someone tell me how to set up a FPV to the Solo Controller. I have the Viewer, cables and all that is needed, but cannot get the Viewer to display the camera feed through the HDMI port on the controller. When hooked up to a monitor, only get the "3DR" logo.

    Fat Shark Full Panel Viewer

    Just got this for my Solo. Specifically, what cable do I need to connect it with my Solo Controller, and where can I get it? The model is FSV1102 Transformer Full Panel Viewer. I have got the Micro HDMI to Mini HDMI cable, get no picture.

    Motors Swapped to T-Motor 2216-12 800kV

    OK, thank you. Seems I should have gone with the 800kv motors. Perhaps for the next upgrade.

    Motors Swapped to T-Motor 2216-12 800kV

    A few posts back, RichWest said that the 800kv motors had a slightly better performance that the 900kv motors. Better performance how? Longer battery life? More responsive drone?
