I got some night footage over my city but I never looked at the footage after that. I had some other editing I needed to get done and I just never got around to it. It's still in the sd card I think. I should do that, but I mentioned this in another thread, a bunch of people showed up and...

The email I sent asking the question was on a monday. 11/16

I started a conversation with you with the email in it. I was talking to a 3DR guy and I asked him a question and didn't receive a response so I asked if his lack of a response was a "no" and I didn't hear anything back. This was over the course of a couple days I believe. I also sent him an...

I took mine to a park that was supposed to close at dusk, but they never shut the gates. It has a great over look of the city from there and I wanted to get a little night time view of the city lights from up there. I set up and started flying and my wife was spotting for me. Then all of a...

What I don't like is how they just straight up ignore your emails after a while. Has this happened to anyone else?

I think gopro always does the 180 degree rule and keeps the shutter speed double the frame rate and uses ISO for exposure comp. Now I will need to look into this. Haha. My only experience is with hero 3+ black so I'm not sure about hero 4. Also slowing down shutter speed would allow more light...

Does the ND actually eliminate or just reduce them? Maybe the construction of the ND is also acting as a lens hood or maybe like a polarizer? I use ND on my dslrs for certain situations but something blocking the sun from the lens looks the same. Of course nothing is moving quite as fast as a...

I had a spare gimbal but I thought about doing the same to the bent arm if I ever lose the good one.

I'm for RTH engaging during a lost controller connection. I would guess at a race there would be lots of interference. The stock antennas are junk. I only got 300ft away on stock so I got the alfa 7db panels and haven't had any more problems, but I haven't let Solo get more than 350 ft up and...

I guess we'll all have to hope that no one's take off spot becomes an unsafe landing spot due to changing conditions. This type of crash will happen again. I skimmed the manual and learned what I needed to have probably 20 successful flights. That was a mistake yes but you know full well I won't...

I'm only "hard headed" when when I'm fighting for something I think is a good idea. There is no question it will save some crashes. People are acting like I ignored all the low battery warnings. I know I made some bad choices and, as I keep saying, already admitted that. If you think ni one else...

What tight quarters? Surely you aren't ignoring the 100ft rule? Everyone including 3dr breaks that rule.

Yeah, but you'll get that no matter your settings. If your prop is between the sun and the lens its going to happen. A sun shade or lens hood is pretty much the only way to get rid of it, but it's hard to have an effective one for a super wide angle lens.

That's all speculation. The only change I asked for was a major warning prompt before auto RTH engaged with an option to override it before it happens. Where is the crash in this scenario? Auto RTH still engages if you do nothing, but before it does it pulse vibrate the controller for a 10...

Explain why what I suggest is dumbing down Solo please.
