    Solex for Solo

    Kelly just addressed this in his latest solex update. Version 1.7.1 should fix it. Check your solex app in google play store for an update. FYI the problem is with the inaccuracy of GPS readings from Android devices.

    I appreciate it man! Just outta curiosity, do you have any phone/tablet that is not a Samsung? One thing I have not been able to test is a non-Samsung android device. Curious as to if it is solely a Samsung issue. Let me know! On a side note, I would like to thank you for introducing me to the...

    Solo and Solex won't find Tablet GPS

    Did you gents ever get anywhere with this? I'm about to fly my solo into a wall at this point do to frustration with this exact issue. Follow me worked just fine with my Samsung galaxy s8 before 3dr pushed the 2.4.2 update to the solo. I've tried multiple Android phones (s4, s5 mini, S8, tabA)...

    Android Oreo (Android 8)

    Bought a Samsung Galaxy TabA to test Friday. Follow me did not work Friday. However somehow some way it worked on Saturday. Only thing I did different was boot things up in a different order. I went Controller, App, Solo this time as opposed to Solo, Controller, App. Tried to recreate it...

    Android Oreo (Android 8)

    I checked the permissions and both have access to my precise location via GPS as well as access to my approximate location via cell towers and wifi. I can try and change the RTL to RTM in solex and see if that changes anything as well. I am curious to know how your's acts given the same setup. I...

    Android Oreo (Android 8)

    So I upgraded to open solo yesterday. A quick test flight with the stock solo app produced the same results with the follow me issue on my Samsung Galaxy S8. I did not have a chance to try follow me mode with the Solex app as the wind was pretty bad right after takeoff. Ironically as I went to...

    GPS issues: Android Oreo with solo 2.4.2

    The solo follow me does work.... but only with an IPhone. So I technically have a working version right now.... It's just not ideal. If I upgrade to open solo then there is no going back to 2.4.2 correct? Does open solo work with iPhone?

    GPS issues: Android Oreo with solo 2.4.2

    Do you use open solo with solex? I use my solo to record a lot of wakeboarding video edits. I use the free look follow me mode so I can change video angles during filming. With that mode the drone will fly itself while I focus on the camera angles. It worked great with my galaxy s8 before the...

    GPS issues: Android Oreo with solo 2.4.2

    I was contemplating trying open solo. However I was trying to confirm if that would fix my issue or not before I did so. Have you tried all the follow me modes with solex and open solo without issue?
