    Solo loosing control in Manual.

    Dude!! I had the same exact thing happen a few days ago. I was landing my solo, I was coming down in stages so that it could adjust to the altitude. Before landing I let it hover at about 5 feet for a few seconds and it got real squirrelly. I hit my A button which is set to full manual and I...

    New props

    I tried ordering through B & H and it didn't say they that they didn't have them in stock. They took my money and never sent me the props. I ended up canceling my order.

    sunken tugboat

    haha thanks. yeah when I was doing my checks the gimbal goes straight and then goes limp. Everything says its working fine, breathing green light and I hear the hamster wheel inside whirring but i have no up and down movement. I shot this in Rodeo, where I work. The boat is a local landmark.

    sunken tugboat

    Here is a video i made of the local sunken tugboat. I found out before i took off that my gimbal had just broke so i shot this with a broken gimbal.

    Gimbal noise

    I did do a search and found nothing, at least in the top 5 posts about gimbal noise that matched exactly what I was experiencing. Plus all the other threads were a year or more old and from what I've read from doing searches is that 3dr updated the gimbal so I wasn't sure if the same issues from...

    Gimbal noise

    Update: I guess I jumped the gun on posting this but I seemed to have gotten spooked after all the other people on here posting. I turned everything off, let it sit, turned it back on and no noise. Well there's a very slight noise but that's normal from what I've read.

    Where to buy propellers?

    site scan props are $20 for a set of 2. I guess since 3dr slapped a new name on the solo and camera and now charging $12,000 for the kit they can raise the price of props as well. I just bought some APC props. have yet to use them but I too am wondering why I cant get oem props for $7.99 anymore.

    Gimbal noise

    I searched this but never found any definitive answers other than check the cables and wires. Mine seems to be operating normal so I'm not sure if that's what's causing it. plus when the camera is angled down a little it stops. The sound also seems to be coming from the motor in the gimbal. The...

    Strange noise with Gimbal

    Could this be an issue if the gimbal is working correctly but just making a noise?

    solo props, which is best?

    Hello everyone. I'm new here but have been watching for a while. I need to get some new props, I just bought some APC props but have yet to fly them because of weather. I just went to buy some more stock props but I'm having a hard time finding them. In my search here it seems to be much...

    $20 solution tablet holder / sunshade

    My case makes it barley too big to fit horizontally and its to small to fit vertically. without my big otterbox case it fits fine. I just have to take it off every time and risk me dropping it. That darn iPhone is so slippery without a case.

    $20 solution tablet holder / sunshade

    does this fit on the stock ball that comes with the controller? I have a iPhone 6+ with a thick case and it doesn't fit into my holder without me taking the case off.

    Best settings on GoPro for the best video?

    So after reading this thread and another I've learned to set the iso at 400. From shooting stills I know i shouldn't go higher because at that point it's dusk or darker. Recently I saw a video of a Phantom 3 pro shooting at 100 iso in daytime and sunset shots and it looked outstanding. I need to...
