    Solo Flyaway

    ALL, here is my outcome. If you followed along you probably saw that 3DR did finally agree to repair my Drone and GoPro under warranty after I got through 2 levels of management. Well, today I received the box back from 3DR.... And you'll never guess. I had sent them my GoPro 3+ Silver, it had...

    Don't buy a solo...

    Without using Mission Panner or Tower, I don't, because I would have to connect directly to the PixHawk inside the solo, SSH'n into the drone only gets you into the linux CPU, not the actual flight computer. You'd then have to do some python work to change anything on the PixHawk itself.

    Don't buy a solo...

    No, but maybe I should have! lol. I know how it sounds but anything to make people realize im not some dumb 12 year old buying thousand dollar drones and changing things that shouldnt be changed.

    Don't buy a solo...

    To hit on a few things I read on this thread since I posted it... First and foremost, Im a software engineer in SF, I know what Im doing with technology, and I can promise all of you I never touched Mission Planner, Tower, or any of those apps. I opened the Solo from the box, flew it 3 times...

    Don't buy a solo...

    All, After 2 weeks of dealing with 3DR support, and having them accuse me of changing the ARMING_CHECK param when I really did not change anything on the Solo, Today they finally replied to me (a manager did as I asked for a manager) and told me they would send me an RMA and prepaid label and...

    Don't buy a solo...

    I recently posted a thread where I had talked about my solo flying away. I posted logs and numerous users reported lots of abnormalities in them which pointed to a bad motor pod among other things. Well today I received a response from 3dr after they had a couple days with the logs. They told me...

    Solo Flyaway

    I am asking them about the motor issue but havent hear back for an hour or more now. I really am not happy about all this. I dont get how they see a param as being changed when I never used anything or did anything that would change a param on the solo.

    Solo Flyaway

    So 3DR is saying that my ARMING_CHECK param was changed from 1 to 0, meaning that it it shoulsnt have Armed, I have never dowloaded mission planner or tower or anything. And I never touched a single setting in the Solo app, how in the world would they be saying that the logs show my ARMING_CHECK...

    Solo Flyaway

    Here are more logs. This log is from the Solo and should contain the data after the Solo disconnected to the controller. ANy info is helpful! logs-solo.zip

    Solo Flyaway

    3DR called me this morning. They still need more info, since the logs (same ones I posted here) only show the flight up until the controller lost contact with Solo, they need me to send more logs so they can further review them. I also sent them the GoPro footage showing the rest of the flight...

    Solo Flyaway

    3DR told me I would hear back today around 4pm PST. so we will see what they say and I'll update here

    Solo Flyaway

    I agree with you all, the location wasn't a great choice. I did not fully think through the worst outcome and expected a smooth flight. So that is a lesson learned and the good news in all this is that no one was hurt and it hit a open field. There actually wasn't a lot of wind. Obviously more...
