    What effect does temp have on Solo flight/performance?

    I flew my drone in 9F on New Year’s Day for about 10-15 min, and I did notice the battery time seemed a bit low. After reading some comments on LiPo batteries losing run time in the cold, that makes sense.

    Flying Solo while sitting in a Car?

    Hey everyone. So, up here in the North East, the weather is extremely cold today, about 8 degrees. Way too cold to be standing outside for more than 10-15 minutes at a time. I'm thinking of driving somewhere, sitting in my nice heated car while flying the drone. Has anyone done this? Will...

    Solo and Controller not Talking

    Thank you. I will check that. But I not seeing anything called an “SD Card”. Is that the actual name? Or are you referring to the “solo link card” ?

    Solo and Controller not Talking

    i just unboxed my solo 3DR yesterday for Christmas. I installed the gimbal and when I first turns it on, there was a sound like a broken radio station, some squelching and it didn’t stop until I forced it off. I switched it back on and it sounded fine, so I began to go through the setup...
