I had the same issue and recalibrated the bird and it seems to be better now.

Yes same experience here with the faster satellite lock. Glad to hear it just not me.

Tested out Zipline today and I love it. The shots I was taking would have taken me a lot more time to setup using autopilot or litchi on my phantom. IMHO the Solo App has the most intuitive user interface out there. Very happy with this update. Also, the satellite lock seems to be a lot faster?

Thanks guys for the help! I am more of a fly by the seat of my pants amateur videographer i.e explore, find something interesting to take a video of. Occasionally I get some neat videos but I really need to start planning out my shots more if I want to get any better. Multipoint cable cam seems...

EyeWingSuit, I greatly appreciate the update! This bird has a lot of compute power and one of the reasons I purchased this platform. The new smart shots keep getting better and better. Cheers!

Varies a lot for me but typically between 40' and 120'. I fly a lot over a lake with just a few 90' tree stands on the shoreline.

The Multipoint Cable Cam smart shot is awesome! I find it to be that rare combination of being very power and just as important, easy to use. Kudos to the human factors engineers who did the layout of the user interface! I did however have a question. Does the Performance Settings...

I agree to abide

Would be great on iOS. Count me in.

Rich, Thanks for the feedback! This video was taken a week ago when it was around 9 degrees so not so conducive for testing. I am hoping when things warm up, the gimbal suspension will be more pliable. I greatly appreciate your posts and have learned a lot from them. I agree that the motors...

To update this thread, I have itemized below what I have done to improve and fix the AP issues I was having. Hopefully this will help others who have been having the same set of issues. 1. Gimbal Flop: The new gimbal I received as a RMA did fix this issue. Just a heads up, it took three weeks...

I like the Relish solution. Not sure why 3DR couldn't have made it easier to get access to the SD card. I was also thinking about mini-SDI cards with WIFI. I guess there would still be a concern with WIFI interference. A nice enhancement for 3DR would be control of the WIFI on the GoPro. I guess...

Rob, Cool! Looks like another good solution. Great pics on the modifications. Not sure why 3DR was so stingy on the clamp size. Cheers, Roto Fan

Curious how most people are downloading their videos from the GoPro. I have concerns with wearing out connectors by removing the GoPro all the time. I could turn on WIFI but you can't get to the button on top of the GoPro when it is in the Gimbal. Also you can't get to the mini SD card.
