    Map of Solo Owners?

    Juneau, Alaska. And yes, I've carried my Solo on a jet as a carry on bag. Only thing that happened is the TSA agent literally asked me (as the Solo was going through the X-Ray machine) "So, how do you like your drone?" They were very cool about it, no issues with them at all. Of course...

    This gopro requires a firmware to work with solo

    I 'may' have something for you. I too have a GoPro 3 Black. Have had the same message as you. Saw a video online from someone shooting with a GoPro3 Black and sent them a message. They told me to power on the GoPro before turning on Solo, and controller. Do not put the GoPro into the gimbal...

    Any reliable info from B&H?

    B&H's 'stock' answer now is 9/21 for when they will receive gimbals. When talking with them, I get the impression that they are a bit frustrated themselves....which is totally understandable. I think they are caught in the middle of this and are ending up with dissatisfied customers through no...

    Any reliable info from B&H?

    I preordered gimbal and Solo on June 28th. They shipped me a Solo. I test flew it once but couldn't get a live feed from the Solo to my iPhone. Tried everything....still no go. Returned it directly to 3DR. They sent me a brand new one. Opened it up one time and it too would not send me a...

    No Live Feed?

    Pretty sure it's not the GoPro, GoPro is flawless to any other TV via HDMI. Also, since I live in Alaska, unfortunately there is no Best Buy closer than about 800 miles by air from me. I am trying to get ahold of another GoPro, but I would be willing to bet a good deal of money that it's not...

    No Live Feed?

    That's actually what is most frustrating. This IS a new one that they sent me when this same thing happened with my first one....

    no picture from go pro in solo app

    Yeah, I tried that. Sorry to say, I think I'm going to have to return it and go with another platform. Ordered June 30th, got the Solo near the end of July....no live view....sent it back after trying everything.....got a new Solo mid August....still no live view.....still waiting on...

    no picture from go pro in solo app

    Have NEVER been able to get mine to work (GoPro 3). Doesn't matter which order I start it up in. GoPro works fine via HDMI to TV so it's not the GoPro. After going through every (and I do mean EVERY) possible start up sequence and GoPro setting with tech support on the phone, they had me take...

    No Live Feed?

    I haven't been able to....I've been trying to get ahold of both another GoPro and another phone to try to eliminate those as variables but haven't been able to do either one yet. All I know is the GoPro works via HDMI on a TV. Everything about the app works on my iPhone except the live view.

    GoPro HDMI failure?

    It's not the GoPro, the GoPro works fine plugged into any TV via mini HDMI to HDMI port. It's frustrating to have this occur on the Solo I got to replace the Solo that wouldn't give me live view. Never have even seen a glimpse of anything other than black on my phone....ugh.

    No Live Feed?

    I'm trying, I'm trying! I just have to get someone I know who will actually part with their phone. Do you have any idea how attached people these days are to their phones? Then of course, I have to get them to let me download an app to their phone....which despite my claims that I will...

    No Live Feed?

    Yup, I tried uninstalling the app, rebooting and reinstalling. Still nothing. There are 3 iPads in my house and none of them are correct for the Solo app (it will only let you download it if it works with the particular model of iPhone or iPad you have). One older iPhone which also will not...

    GoPro HDMI failure?

    As I said on another thread, I have not once been able to get 'live view' to work. Went through every step a person can go through up to taking the Solo apart with 3DR's direction and checking under the circuit board to make sure the HDMI cable was connected. To their credit, 3DR sent me a new...
