I have done all sorts of range mods, amped, cards, software. My video feed still suxs quite often. Whilst it could be something else, I'd be tempted to try it just for better video feed. Might give it a go

Same here. I had a spare hero black from a handheld gimbal. No auto on off, and no new menu items automagically in 3dr iOS app to use new features. I'm sure I can probably revert firmwares on the GoPro but I've never tried it I rather like the auto on off, so I'll be leaving my main rectilinear...

I've also done flights to and from mainland Usa to Oahu. Solo in backpack with 4 plus one on drones. Into lax scanning the guy said "its a drone isn't it" from scan, said yes. That's it See if you can get a zip line infinite cable cam going along the side of the 2000ft high napali coast...

Pm me too on this one

I've been busy and absent a month or two Good to see things here are still lively ! :) . I can't wait to fire up the solo again and try out mpcc more than my single 5m test flight when it came out. All this new software for my existing investment is what I signed up for in my original...

Check you can still set rth altitude, think issue with that I saw on another thread

I landed and stopped motors on the boat and took off again. Landed in liberties torch basket too :) What a great sim. Being able to adjust the control sliders for speed should be next but it's darn good and very close to the feel of operating solo. I'm taking it to work see what my coworkers...

So misleading title. It probably might have happened given the chance. Was walking my dog, ran into an older couple looking for their dog. A cyclist had knocked the man down who then let go of his dog lead. Dog ran off with retractable lead trailing. High chance of getting it wrapped around a...

So after 7 weeks I decided to charge my test battery. It was still at 5/8 before I put it on charge. I conclude it drops to that level quickly when not used but stays at that level for a long time.

I don't think I've seen a simulator program yet

Yes ssh. Instructions are on here somewhere. Hostapd file mod

Nice! Looks frosty :) summer starting here in oz. Was it a bit of a process to match them up?

Also if you are in the USA, modifying solo so it can choose channel 13 helps very much in metro areas with interference. Other places in the world it makes little difference. Going channel 13 and some basic $30 alpha panel antennas will get most people more range than they need

Toddler loses eyeball after errant drone slices it in half I can't tell you how much this makes me feel sick. I generally don't fly near people, and if I fly from home I make sure no one is going past my driveway for takeoffs and landings, I'm literally up and out over parkland/lake within 1...

Note the supplier sent me out a new cable. They are an Australian supplier, so those in the USA are better off searching the description of the cable on eBay or a local supplier, but for those in Australia. No issues with that supplier or batch, isolated incident. It did take a phone call, my...
