    So long fellas !

    See you. I might be returning my Solo as well. As soon as they send me the replacement from a crash. I had a burnout esc and the Solo crashed into the water with my Gopro. I retrieved it. (It was only a few feet from the shore). 3DR said they would be sending me a RMA over a week ago but...
