OK, i tried using the DigiLand DL1008M tablet because it was laying around the house and I was frustrated with the small smartphone screen. The tablet runs android 5.1 I think. I downloaded and installed the Solo app with no problems and it launches with no problems. When i power on my Hero 3...

My main concern is can you remotely take pictures and start and stop the video recordings while flying. I want full camera control with the solo software.

I'm getting ready to buy a go pro 3 plus black. Just verifying we are having no issues marrying it to the solo software for live camera control. Im replacing my 3 plus silver. I can still use the most current software update and 3 plus black will work...is that still correct?

Yes unzip the update folder and it creates a second update folder that is unzipped. Copy the entire unzipped update folder on your cameras micro sd card, insert into camera and power camera up. It should start installing on boot up

That's the correct version. It says firmware version 3.10 but it shows as version 2 on your Gopro once installed. I have the Hero 3 plus and it worked for me.

Others have said the plastic frame is flexible enough to push the frame down and it will depress the record button on the gopro.

OK, changed a setting on my GoPro hero 3 plus silver and now i do not have to start the recording before mounting in the gimbal. There is a setting on the camera that allows it to start recording on power up. I can mount the camera without powering it up. When i start my solo software it turns...

OK, i scanned all 8 pages and correct me if i am wrong... but i do not think that the Solex app gives full camera control of the GoPro Hero 3+ silver. Is that correct. Is that even an issue that can be fixed by a flight app or is that something that GoPro and 3DR would have to fix. You would...

The only issue is you must start the gopro recording before mounting the camera into the gimbal housing. The video streams great thru the solo app.
