If you didn't get 10 foot off the ground and you were basically 5 miles away then no one is going to come after you. HOWEVER you have to be careful. There was a guy the other day that after doing the update (he had flown the Solo successfully many times previously before the update) he started it up and it started climbing and it climbed out of sight. He tried RTL to no avail. I don't know if he ever found it or not... just checked and he hasn't found it yet.
The moral of this story is whenever doing an update you will want to test it out away from people, buildings and airports.
I would like to mention that 3DR did step up to the plate and is going to reimburse him for not only the Solo but for his GoPro as well. They looked at his logs and provided GPS coordinates as to where it was at the last GPS log but they have looked for several days and still haven't found it.
Sounds like you are doing the the right thing and being proactive which we all need to be. These things are not toys and can hurt someone if not flown responsibly. There are a few idiots out there that are giving the majority of responsible pilots a bad name.
