    GoPro losing connectivity...

    Just to be clear you are using the solo app and not the GoPro app. GoPro wifi is off and not being used for the video feed. I have had trouble with the feed when shooting at a high res and moving the solo fast.

    Traveling with Solo

    Most if not all airlines, list what they allow, size, weight and that can be carried on vs checked. Look it up.

    Just What is the Real Issue with the Solo GPS?
