    Power Button Controller Stuck

    I'm almost embarrassed to share this but here goes. I had an appliance repair guy over to repair my oven/range and we got to talking about drones. I told him about my controller button sticking and he gave a small container with silicone grease in it and told me to apply a small bit to the...

    Power Button Controller Stuck

    You guys have talked me out of going the RMA route. I'll open the controller and see what I can do. Worse case scenario I can always get another one at Best Buy and get a better deal than I originally got.

    Power Button Controller Stuck

    Okay I looked at the link you sent me. Apparently I have to take the controller apart. I am willing to do that, but not while it's under warranty. I would rather get a replacement.

    1/12/2017 - $299 sale (Solo, battery, props, gimbal) is back on

    My wife bought me the Solo for 299 at Best Buy for Christmas, but it did not come with the gimbal. Am I able to return the item she purchased and get this one with a gimbal? Oh and the current offer has a backup battery, mine came with just one. EDIT add.

    Well I definitely don't want to add something that will make the Solo less stable.
