    Doesn't record video to GoPro

    It should work with the 4 Silver at least. Once the Solo is powered up and running, observe the GoPro - is it on? If not manually turn it on with the GoPro power button. You should see a red record button (not grey) on the Solo App. Android or iPhone? Lastest Solo firmware on App and Solo too?

    Peau Productions Software

    I sent my GoPro 4 Black in after watching the install video, and realizing it was probably too hard for me to do. I do not regret getting the Peau Productions 3.97mm for my GoPro. I love the rectilinear shots without any correction.

    Doesn't record video to GoPro

    Just How Tough is The SOLO? Well, Let's see.......

    Awesome story and video. I've had similar instances like Solo vs light pole that sheared the props off. My Solo is flying just fine today too. Thanks for sharing!

    Who flies his SOLO without any mods?

    I added a piece of cardboad between the metal shielding and the GPS antenna, and that has made a world of difference. This could have been compromised originally when I crashed my Solo twice. Now I fly without any issues with GPS or range.

    Firmware 1.3.0 is out

    After upgrading the firmware, I just went for a flight in some stiff winds. I think its much more stable. I used to have a shimmy when loitering but that appears to be gone. Performance in 13-19mph winds was great.

    Why I'm STAYING with 3DR - a little personal info, my first and last

    Agreed. Count me as a loyal and happy customer. I've engaged technical support 4 times for various issues and all have been happily resolved or answered. 3DR has exceeded my expectations and I'm having a blast flying and shooting footage.

    BestBuy is gearing up for the Solo Release on June 8th

    I plan to use B&H to buy (or Amazon if they ever put a link up). Has anyone just ordered the Solo with no gimbal and received an extra battery?

    Solo Operations Manual

    I didn't realize I could mount a GoPro without the gimbal until reading the manual.
