Just did a search and found every Best Best within 100 miles has Gimbals available for Store Pickup.

Hopefully they'll start shaking loose in the supply chain. I ordered a replacement motor pod direct from 3dr after a crash on July 30. FINALLY got it about 2 weeks ago. On the bright side literally just takes a couple minutes at most to change out. Will be great resource when readily available...

Today took it to about 4100ft at 380ft elevation before getting red (see pic). Still all stock. Confident I can get mile+ because after took that pic shifted my position and got 2 bars back.

Been taking it easy because just got it flying again after burning out motor in crash (my fault). So far furthest I've gone is about 2400 feet at 400 feet altitude (stock attenae) before getting into red. Have always stopped before auto RTH. Here are a couple screenshots from around 2050 feet...

Been thinking of doing something similar but cutting hole in part for gimbal to avoid having to use leg extenders. Speaking of rain/weather, tried to spot tornado that came within a couple mile of my house. Unfortunately had to land before the downpour started. Got back in air after got some...

Like you I smelled a rat from the beginning. It looked like Crane shot, the pressing of the button/noise stopping not convincing. Then the vague explanation only involving the controller and "prop speed and pitch" Real noise cancelling/reduction at very least would involve something on the Drone...

Thanks for the offer. Tried it out. Like it as quick stand-alone to correct fisheye and do some tweaks. Does seem to have about an 8 or 9 minute clip limit though. But I can take care of those in Premiere or After Effects. Here's a time lapse I used it on as a sample. Corrected fisheye, boosted...

Reasoning totally right on Phantom, if willing to forgo certain things, it's fine. The numbers are not high because of sucky 14%, many state and local taxes in US add up to 9% or more. The difference, as Rsfitz pointed out, is the strong US dollar. Canadian Dollars trade at 0.75 to 1, hence...

Yeah, I've just scratched the surface with GoPro. Been obsessed lately with the great time-lapse capabilities. It was the flexibility of being able to use it on/off drone that help sell me on Solo. Just gave me a good excuse to buy one. I'm still waiting for a motor pod (shakes fist in 3dr's...

I was a little perplexed by the numbers too. But, I realize Del is probably right about it being in Canadia Dollars. So C$2000 for Solo and Gimbal would better compare to C$1650+ for a P3P. Savings doesn't seem so big now. I would personally take the GoPro out of the equation since it is...

I'd try here. P.S. I can't believe they have already decorated for Christmas :)

I don't think we need to fret. It's on BB and B&H websites. Went to BB Saturday. The Solo display was empty except for 3 sets of propellers (I bought two) and 1 battery.

Love this video. Looks fantastic. Thanks for posting it Jubalr. It just makes me more excited for the gimbal's release. I know it's taking longer than any of us, especially 3dr, wanted. But i would rather they get it right before I get it. Besides, half the fun of Christmas is the anticipation...
