I know I saw one for sale, but can't seem to find it anywhere, here or Google... I saw a tray that attaches to your waist/shoulders I think that you can set the controller/tablet on, and so if you are driving a quad, or whatever it stays flat and doesn't dangle like it does just using the strap.

I had searched, but not very effectively. Thank you for getting me on the right track, got Mission Planner installed, extracted logs, got the telemetry data, GPS co-ordinates, and FOUND my drone an hour ago. Stoked. Now to find out what happened.

What log file to load? I appreciate your help, but if you really don't know this stuff, why wouldn't you let someone else answer who does?

If someone knows the actual log and parameter to look for, it should in fact be very easy to locate.

OK, thank you - I'm downloading WINSCP now - but how and where do I find the last GPS co-ordinates so I can go find my drone please!?

Long story short, drone went down during a 'follow me' flight, either lost sync and RTH or low battery and was trying to RTH. I can email logs to 3DR, but how do I email them to me, or find the last know GPS position so I can try to locate it myself?

Sure thing pal. I think 3DR make a great product, but is there room for improvement? Is it not possible that you might not turn off your drone for some reason? Or you swear you did, but it got knocked/bumped, and turned on? Is a failsafe bit of code to turn it off in the event of certain...

The other thin It is possible I was still in selfie mode - I will verify tomorrow. My other point stands however, if you A+B+" it, and forget to power off the drone, it WILL NOT power itself off. And borderline cooks itself until the battery runs out.

It took off, and went up - did the 'selfie' shot, but upon return, wouldn't land when bringing the drone down. How is that operator error?

Yup, on my 2nd gimbal too as the 1st went all funky streaming to my ipad or iphone.. was really embarrassing, I'm down here in Mexico, wanted to get a nice group 'selfie' and end up having to jump to rescue it.. up/down - controlled the GIMBAL.. so ridiculous.

Anyone else experience this - I updated to latest firmware, all new smart shots, etc, etc- but when I try to FLY - the UP/DOWN controller controls the GIMBAL - and the GIMBAL trim does nothing!! This is serious BS. I had to JUMP to grab my Solo, and show my friend how to A+B+" to kill the...

I would very much like to participate in gimbal discussions, but I still await mine from B&H - although I ordered way back in April. I have also had two motor pods go bad, (replaced, by 3RD at no cost) and then two weeks later, I repeatedly got: "Calibration Error" - that I tried in vain over...

Hey all, Brand new Hero4 black ed, with brand new GoPro battery. I've discovered that if I leave it OFF but plugged into the HDMI cable on my solo, by the next day the battery is completely dead. I don't know if this is a battery fault, GoPro issue, or Solo problem. Can anyone else...
