Will anyone be at the Interdrone show next week in Vegas? Would be nice to say hello in person. InterDrone | The International Drone Conference and Exposition | September 9-10-11, 2015 | Las Vegas -Ed

And of course it had to be a Solo :-(

Yep Lost mine on a 3 Black ( it was time for a 4 anyway ;-) )

Congrats on the recovery!!
