    who is Unhappy

    Hey Steve, I don't stay on the computer all day. I just wanted to know how many Solo owners were happy or not happy with their UAV's (I don't call them drones) .There is a article on "Drone Flyers" about how 3DR Solo's are a No Go for now, "3DRobotics Solo is a NoGo – 3DR Solo First Look". I...

    who is Unhappy

    Hey guys & Dolls, I would like to know the numbers of who is unhappy with their 3DR Solo's, well, and how many are happy too I guess. I was going to purchase one BUT, I heard they (3DR) flunk the satisfaction category.How many of you have your gimbals? Thanks a million. TW

    I have a lifetime, and it even gets better.Had to wait for my Phantom 3, had to wait for batteries. Good things come to those who wait.I'm a patient animal.

    I can't answer that question Ben because I do not have a Solo as of yet. I am waiting until the gimbal is available.I can tell you that my Phantom 3 is more reliable than my Phantom2 Vision Plus, although both are great flying birds.

    The Phantom 3 is so awesome to fly, I know DJI support sucks and all. Here is a video of the phantom 3 cruzing around our neighborhood. Look closely in the cornfield is a deer and then a turkey.

    What do you think of your Solo?

    I like to get all I can for my buck! Yes! but having there "return to home" set at 49ft. for default is a not so good move. So if I changed that to save my Solo from hitting a tree I would be wrong??

    It says in the manual NOT TO CHARGE BATTERY AND REMOTE AT THE SAME TIME. Never mind you have lots of experience.

    LOL!! oh ok, rrmccabe you will love the P3, hope you ordered extra batteries cause your going to want them. The remote takes the longest to charge, batteries about a hour.

    What do you think of your Solo?

    Thanks Rodney, I didn't know flying waypoints would void the warranty, guess I might have second thoughts after all on purchasing the Solo. As I like waypoints. I have the P2V+ and P3 like them both.Wanted the Solo because it does so much more and open for change, but if you change things and...

    Is it your gimbal or P3 that is being delivered? Phantom 3 is awesome bird as well as the P2V+ I like them both. I can't wait to order the Solo W/gimbal. I am waiting until the gimbals are out before I order one.

    What do you think of your Solo?

    Thanks for your input, but what is the Tower app and do you install that on a tablet or PC? My Phantom 3 is awesome much better than my P2V+ no waypoints with the P3 though. What is "mission Planner) does that install on the PC? Thank you for your help. As you can see I am trying to educate...

    What do you think of your Solo?

    Not that I know of, at least DJI hasn't. I hear in the clouds that maybe sometime in December DJI will have waypoints for the Phantom3. If you get the Phantom 3 you will love it. I just joined this forum a couple of days ago so I can learn the skinny on the Solo. I am also a member in the...

    What do you think of your Solo?

    Well thanks for all the relies and comments guys. Didn't really read any real negative comments, so I aspect I will order a 3DR Solo, probably around mid July when the Gimbal is released. I do enjoy my Phantoms P2V+, and Phantom3 Advanced, but I do like the fact the Solo is upgradable amongst...
