    Fair price to charge for shooting video with Solo.

    Actually, I'm currently in the middle East. Very hot. While there aren't any regulations in place now, they are in the process of drafting and implementing them. Once the regulations are in place, there will most definitely be more hoops I have to jump through.

    I actually provide the raw, and stabilized. This footage isn't being used for movies, or other more complex stuff. Just short web clips for instagram and youtube.

    Fair price to charge for shooting video with Solo.

    So far it has just been the raw footage, with some stabilization done using Prodrenalin by myself when required.

    Fair price to charge for shooting video with Solo.

    Let me start by saying that I already posted this question in the Solo Owners Group on Facebook, but also wanted to post it here to maximize the responses I get. Also, I'm not in the US, and won't need a 333, although my country will be introducing their own regulations soon that very well...

    Fresh meat-

    Same here. The Hubsan with a good prop guard saved me tons in the long run. An added benefit is once you master one of those twitchy things, the rest will come easy. I got my Syma after the Hubsan, and even that seemed easy after the Hubsan. A word of warning to people with long hair, prop...

    Fresh meat-

    One thing that really helped me was getting a smaller quad to practice with and get the basics down before flying my Solo. I got both the Hubsan X4 and Syma X5C. After getting proficient with those, flying Solo in GPS mode was cake.

    Gopro session??

    I haven't payed the session any attention, but would assume there is a way to attach it with the stock mount.

    Is it just me.....

    I noticed the same thing. The decent is very bumpy a lot of the time, regardless of wind.

    Double check your gimbal install.

    Thanks for the info, Mike. As per your recommendations I checked, and as I suspected, I still don't have a gimbal.

    Free Battery

    Totally unnecessary, although it was just the last straw after the first issue where my original order was not processed properly on their system (it managed to put the hold on my CC, but not actually place the order). That took almost a month to sort out due to their poor three day response...

    Free Battery

    Either because I asked about the possibility of shipping it to a freight forwarding address, or because I was using a CC issued outside of US. It was really messed up because I had it set to ship to my address in the US, and merely asked about the freight forwarding, and they cancelled my...
