    Noisy Gimbal?

    Mine is whisper quiet. In fact I was kind of amazed at how quiet it was when It first arrived.

    Update 1.1.15 out

    FYI, I have had my gimbal for 2 weeks now and my online order still says backordered. Also, I had it for 3 days before I got an email saying it had shipped with a tracking number.

    Solo, GoPro & Gimbal...Check! Connection to GoPro...Not so much....

    Ah, sounds like a great partnership they have there. I wonder is that is a sign that everytime GoPro does an update it will break functionality? Has 3DR given a time frame?

    Solo, GoPro & Gimbal...Check! Connection to GoPro...Not so much....

    Can I ask a stupid question? Are any of you able to change the gopro settings from inside the app yet? I have been unable to and support says its not available yet, but I just assumed I would see some more grumbling about it. I have a hero 4 silver and can only start and stop footage.

    Pilots vs State Legislators

    This is why I am listing my Inspire 1 for sale. I would rather recoup some of my money rather than wait until it is banned and have an expensive paperweight.

    Solo fountain crash! Is my drone salvageable?

    Just dont try to turn it on!!!! Most people get curious a couple hours later to see if their electronic is ruined or not and they turn it on to check. BAD!!!! let it dry, someone said 24 hrs. I typically will let a device dry out for a week. Water can get trapped under components and flow out later.

    Solo Flyaway

    Unfortunately, there are A LOT of people that have this same mind set. A lot of people ignore safety procedures until something like this happens to them.

    Anyone else thinking about returning Solo?

    I received my Gimbal last Monday. Here are my thoughts. I am extremely aggravated with the way 3dr has handled this launch. Between the underestimated demand, the multiple missed ship dates, and the fact that not everything promised has been delivered (flight simulator) I think they were trying...

    Unable to adjust altitude limits anymore

    Cool. I figured. I have heard of some people getting an exemption for the day from the FAA for an event. Was just wondering what that consisted of. Happy flying!!!

    Unable to adjust altitude limits anymore

    Wow, what did you have to do to get permission to go to that height? Or are you not in the US?

    Do you think the FAA is watching?

    Also, remember. Not everyone that posts in this forum is in the United States. they may be in a country were what they are posting is not illegal.

    Laws

    Ah, Gotcha. Yes, see what you are saying. I do agree with that in this context.

    Laws

    Actually, typically Federal trumps local only in cases where it is stricter than local. That is why some pot users and dispenseries in Colorado and others have been charged. While the possession, Use, and sales may be legal at the local and state level, It is still Illegal according to Federal...
