    Solo Disappearance - Now RECOVERED

    Sorry to hear about your troubles. My drone also switched to manual on me without warning today but throughout the day it was constantly loosing the connection to the controller, even within 100m. Did you experience a similar connectivity issue prior to having it switch to manual?

    Maximum altitude limit keeps reverting to 200ft

    Maybe but that really shouldn't be a user's problem. I bought an LGG3 because it was recommended for this app/drone and 8 months later 3dr removes it from their list because it's not always compatible with their app. This kind of non sense will end up getting them out of the market real fast. I...

    Travel Advice

    Why ask permission, when you can ask forgiveness. Just fly, no one in St Martins of all places will care. I've flown in 5 countries without permits and so long as you use common sense you'll be fine.

    traveling overseas with a Solo

    Just did 3 week in Europe (Italy, Slovenia, Croatia). Unfortunately I broke some props and went out of commission early on in Croatia but I came back with some great video all the same. No problems flying so long as I was reasonable, even with military stationed at many tourist locals in Italy...

    Just What is the Real Issue with the Solo GPS?

    You sir are either lucky, lying or an idiot. This expensive paperweight barely ever gets enough satellites to take of unless I'm at the top of a damn hill. I've sat around waiting 20 min or more in the middle of fields. And when you've traveled half way across the world to get some video and you...

    New Travel Restrictions for Batteries

    I had staff at Heathrow check my batteries back in September (fully charged) and they determined that they were not subject to the rules in place (not positive if they were inspecting for the same rule being discussed on this thread) due to the wattage I believe. That having been said they were...

    3D Robotics No Longer Taking Calls

    Just curious. I sent them the logs last Thursday for an unexplained drop in altitude that resulted in a crash and snapped gimbal/lost gopro (in the lake). Just wondering how long they took to respond to you about the logs you sent in?

    3D Robotics No Longer Taking Calls

    It sounds like 3DR is quickly approaching its end and as disappointed as I'll be not to be able to replace parts for the product moving forward its a mess of their own doing. I've had to contact them (when they had phone service) literally dozens of times and they were never able to provide...

    iOS Update with Multi Point Cable Cam, Save & Load Cables, Time Lapse & Free Look

    I did but it wouldn't function. So I deleted the app and attempted to download it again via the app store but was told that my device was incompatible. 3DR then suggested I download the old version with should be stable but would not have the newly added features using this link. 3DR Solo APK...

    iOS Update with Multi Point Cable Cam, Save & Load Cables, Time Lapse & Free Look

    These f**king idiots at 3DR have f**ked up as usual and are using us as their beta testers. Just got told by a 3DR rep that the reason my app doesn't display any of the new features is because some LG G3 phones are incompatible with the new update. So thanks 3DR, after buying the LG G3...

    ENDLESS PREFLIGHT UPDATE CYCLE

    No filters used, any suggestions as to what would best correct the prop shadows?

    The gimbal video thread

    In Tikal, the nation's main Mayan attraction you need a permit to fly, which I hear is expensive and difficult to get (though someone was there flying a phantom with their permit so its not impossible). I was told to leave the drone with security when they caught me. In Antigua a few of the...
