How is it done?

Hi All, 6/30/15 Has anyone been able to locate (from a 3DR source, such as their website) what the new Solo firmware (1.0.5) fixes or improves? Thanks! Gary

Quick question for those of you who have a Solo and have had an opportunity to use the Solo pilot app ... After Solo is out and flying, if I want to fly my own RTH route (without using the RTH function built in to Solo) does the map in the app (the map, not the video feed) present the two...

At about 1:45 minutes into this Youtube video a Solo, apparently being flown by a 3DR employee seems to takes on a mind of its own, resulting in a close quarters crash, and almost some injuries. Is this the so called 'firmware' or 'GPS' bug I've heard of? Best, Gary

Hi Barry, Since it's obvious you already have a flying unit, can you tell me this ... I don't yet have a Solo but am looking to buy one. My question - If I've lost sight of the Solo while flying it and would like to fly it back to me rather than use the 'Return to Home' feature, does the...

Hi All, I'm looking for a factual answer from someone who has the app installed and working. Thanks, Gary
