    Mro gps

    So if I am understanding correctly, if I have the newest MRO GPS unit (the purple one with the USB connection), in order to fully utilize it's capability of tracking 3 constellations, I will have to change the "GPS_GNSS_MODE" parameter in Mission Planner to either 103 or 107, correct?

    Solex for Solo

    Thanks Kelly. They all said "Download" by them after I clicked them once, but then I just clicked one of them again and I got the warning box that says its for the Green Cube Solo configuration. Sorry to waste your time. Thanks for your help.

    Solex for Solo

    So because I'm an idiot and I love new things, I went ahead and clicked on all three available updates.... Solo beta 1.2.0, Yawfixes, and beta 1.0.1. They all say "downloaded" by them now. I haven't hooked up my Solo to solex out anything yet though. Can anyone tell me what's going to happen...

    solo app sign up

    I had this problem too and contacted 3DR support and they said that the sign in function is obsolete. You do not need to sign in, and you can still have warranty support without signing in. That's what I was told by 3DR via chat a couple of weeks ago. I kept getting JSON errors.

    Threshold of prop damage?

    Thanks guys, I know props are cheap, but I am a cheapskate and would hate to throw away props if there is a minor repair I can do to fix them. But since P2P was kind enough to chime in, I honor his advice very highly, so I will likely just keep them in the drawer and order another set. Thanks...

    Threshold of prop damage?

    Would you recommend leaving the knicks or trying to smooth them out with the finest thing I can?

    Threshold of prop damage?

    Good point about the removal of material and weight distribution. I didn't think of that. I think that will be the number one problem. I guess not knowing the extent of the scrapes, it would be hard for anyone to say for sure what kind of situation I am looking at.... I don't know if I want to...

    Threshold of prop damage?

    Hi guys, I have a question about props. I just had my Solo flip on takeoff for the first time. I know my props were on right as I have flown my Solo many times, and I flew it once earlier in the day before the accident. Not sure what caused it, but I also had been using MA props. Do props HAVE...

    GPS Issues

    This sounds eerily familiar to the old Solex bug. Are you flying with Solex by chance? And if so, are you changing your speed stuff in the menu while you are flying? If that is the case, make sure you have the latest Solex app upgrade. The previous version had a bug that when you changed your...

    Solex causing Solo to twitch

    This is EXACTLY what happened to me 2 days ago. Vehicle has been fine for weeks, then 2 days ago my flight kept losing gps lock (using solex) and going into alt hold for about 10 seconds, then getting lock back. It happened often. It also seemed to occur when I clicked down the paddle to start...

    Brick and Mortar Stores that sell props for solo (or that would fit)?

    Hi guys. I recently had my Solo flip over during landing, and all four of my props were destroyed. I know I can order props online, but I was wondering if maybe Best Buy sells props that would fit the Solo? Or any other chain of the sort? For example, if you go on bestbuy.com and look at drone...

    Enabling full control of LED's

    I think I am using 00.4, so it wont be a first time install.... just wondering if I needed to delete any files before running the 00.5 install_led_control.sh script. Thanks again for your hard work and providing us with this wonderful firmware upgrade/LED customization package!

    Enabling full control of LED's

    To upgrade to 0.05, do we just need to delete the old files and rerun the new script? Sorry, I'm new.
