That's not wind. It's being propelled in that direction. And switching to manual mode manually sounds good but most cases I have seen they didn't have a chance.
this is what happens when you fly in confined space.I been on the fence too. I know support is better but geez I don't want to have to use them. Everyday brings another video of another incident. The Facebook page is blowing up. Sure some peeps are not having issues but since it's random they could be next. The latest video is what appears to be a 3dr rep giving a demo flight. It takes off hard right and hits somebody.
I replayed it several times. It was very easy to see that the Solo was pointed towards her and she didn't reverse the sticks in her head. Just before it hit the truck, you can see she started to put the correct correction in, but was too late.
Solo does indeed use wifi for connection between the controller and Solo for both commands and video stream. Standard wifi protocols and standard wifi Atheros chipset.I don't know this for a fact but pretty sure the Solo "wifi" is only the connection from the tablet/phone to the controller. Both use similar "RF" technology on the same frequencies. They just use different protocols to do it on that frequency.
3DR support is calling this "GPS bug" which shall be supposedly fixed no later than in two weeks. I hope it will be sooner.Seems like 90% of these crashes are related to Gps signal loss or degradation....

Do you have any documentation on this? Not sure what you mean standard WiFi protocols. Please elaborate.Solo does indeed use wifi for connection between the controller and Solo for both commands and video stream. Standard wifi protocols and standard wifi Atheros chipset.
And no... Solo doesn't use Wi-Fi from the bird to the controller... just from the phone to controller... common misconception...

I have no doubt this is the case on the Controller to Tablet/Phone.
I don't know Dirby. I wouldn't have been comfortable flying around all those people, kids, congestion. Fly in wide open spaces.so should i not fly my solo until this gets fixed?
