I updated the Solo app (for droid) and now my saved cable routes are gone. Ugh! Any chance they reside somewhere I don't know about that I can retrieve them?

The latest solo app for my Samsung tablet, verson 2.3.0.

Ya know that foam thingy that holds the gimbal/Gopro in place when it's not in use? Well.. I'm sure I'm the only one who takes it out at the last second (yes, that has been after I realize it's still on after take-off), and then I've got no place to put it. It doesn't fit well in a pocket, and...

My Max altitude defaults back to 190' every time I power up the unit. Once I set it to 400', is there a way top get it to default there?

I have 5 batteries and like keeping them fully charged and rotation their use. The manual says to store batteries at 50%. I assume that a few days does not constitute "storage," and that a few months would. What is the time limit without use where I should deplete the batteries to 50% before...

Almost EXACTLY how mine crashed 2 days ago. Except it took off into a neighborhood and crashed into a roof - smashed into pieces, battery 20 feet away from the coptor and Gopro about 40' away on the other side of the house. Coptor, battery and gimble hosed, but GoPro like new. I just got off...

Oh, well... my experience is so localized that I don't know. My opinion of what's to come is just soothsaying! But if I had to guess... Even the schools in my area are starting to own drones for their students to use. Software get's easier and more anyone-can-use. People tend to give value...

Anyone can sue anyone for anything. Doesn't mean they will win. If you watch COPS, you'll see them sometimes show copyrighted logos (signs: McDonalds, etc) and then sometimes (rarely) blur them out. Why sometimes blur and sometimes not? Why do they mostly just show the signs? They just get...

I'm a terrible drone pilot. I don't practice. I spent about 20 mins learning the Solo, then went right out and started shooting footage for TV commercials (I do a bunch of local car and RV lots). In GPS mode, using cable, it's simple and easy to fly these things. It sure took me a lot longer...

Careful not to accidentally push IN this Camera Angle button, which turns on and off camera recording...

Bought mine Monday at Best Buy for $599 with gimbal included free! $129 for extra battery (Amazon price match).
