    Remote in refurbished Solo purchase from 3dr: no WiFi

    SpartaHawk, I am sort of having a similar issue today as well. I have two Solos that for some reason neither are broadcasting the SSID's today so I cannot connect to either of them. I purchased Solo #1 a couple months ago but had my first opportunity to fly it this past week. Today, I hooked...

    Roll back your iOS to 10.2.1

    I have started looking at SidePilot, QGroundControl, and MAV Pilot and like the QGroundControl interface the most so far but I am very new to drones and the settings available are overwhelming. That was one of the best features of the Solo app for someone like me just starting out. I too am...
