Real flight time (only the occasions you hit "fly") would be cool :-) It sounds like this is quite interesting, whether it is a standalone logbook or something simpler that makes it easier for Dronelogbook or programs like that to get to the logs. Please keep us updated on how you are getting...

thanks for the link, seen their ads but not used them yet. I wasnt sure how they handle shipping as it comes from the US. John R

If you find any good prices for batteries in the UK let me know! its a bit pot luck. I managed to score a backpack and battery for 120 off ebay which was a bit of luck, I only have two batts atm and another one coming back from the US courtesy of a friend. Buying batteries from the US is a pig...

I haven't bought Solex yet. I simply haven't flown enough to justify its purchase and I want to be familiar with the standard app first. However I don't see how Solex stops you holding altitude? it doesn't control that, Surely position hold (depending on the mode) is a function of control stick...

Thanks for the suggestion, I had a play with dronlogbook. I downloaded the logs using winscp to my pc, created an account for Dronlogbook and uploaded them. It certainly gives me what i need but it is really the whole pc thing i wanted to avoid. (I like gadgets but i am also lazy :-D ) As my...

I was looking for a simple (preferably android app) that I could use for logging my solo flights. I know I can get the logs from solo into MP, but I really just want to log the actual flight itself without having to download to a PC. Something that could get the logs and extract from the logs...

Thanks for the reply. - and the welcome! I will try sideloading the app on my phone, but I was just curious as to what makes a device incompatible even though it runs the right version of android (maybe it is my inner geek :) ) John

Tony Thanks for the reply, they are both android 5 or above, which should be compatible, but i guess there is something specific about them that markts it as incompatible. The 3dr specs say 4.3 or newer. The LGG2 is rooted (although i nevcer uised it for the reason i rooted it for) I wondered...

Well Solo has arrived on the slow boat from the USA, but it turns out my devices although meeting the Android specs are marked as incompatible :-( I currently have an LG G2 and an older Sony M4 Aqua that I can play with. Does anyone know what causes a device to be marked as incompatible? I dont...

Hi all. I am waiting for my new Solo to arrive from the US (Its a Best Buy deal thats currently on the slow boat to the UK). I have built and flown with an older APM based F450, an F550 with NazaM2 and a Xugong v2 with Naza M lite. I also built a 250 with ccd but that doesnt really get flown...
