Just like MIA posted, I've seen a number of posts on the 3DR Owners Facebook group of people canceling their gimbal orders from the retail route and placing them direct with 3DR mid-August and receiving their shipments end of August and this week. Just an FYI.

I'll ask my son (he works at Fry's) and post back on this. I received my gimbal on Monday. I ordered it directly from 3dr on May 21. I've already installed it and everything seems to be working except I'm getting a Manual Gimbal controller error. Contacted 3dr support with a detailed...

Just got the tracking info for gimbal shipment. Just left China with a delivery date of August 31. Looks like "batches" for direct gimbal orders through 3DR are shipping 1-2 weeks apart. I was part of the "2nd" batch. Gimbal was ordered directly from 3DR on May 21.

I'm in the second batch as well which I was told is supposed to ship this week. Ordered on May 21. 3DR charged my credit card yesterday. It's the last item on my order so we'll see. Haven't received tracking info yet. Looks like My order missed being in the first batch by a few weeks.

I spoke to Ted at 3DR support on Friday to confirm my credit card info was updated through their email request, which it was. He told me my gimbal order was shipping in the second batch this week and that my credit card would be charged once it was confirmed. My card was charged last night for...

Live long and prosper!

How much does it cost?

Hi Shadow34606. I had the same issue with my Hero 3+ Black when I first hooked it up. You have to go into the GoPro setup and change the video capture size from Wide to Medium then the streaming video works fine. This also helps you avoid taking video of the front legs of the Solo so you won't...

Good advice. I didn't think of that since I was having too much fun flying around the trees. Kind of forces you to hone your obstacle avoidance skills whether you like it or not. But it was a blast getting as close to the tree tops as I could at one point. The 150ft ceiling gave me plenty of...
