I guess it is a marketing thing ... I plan to upgrade both of my GoPros with Peau lenses and have the software upgraded.

Thanks ... I'm not a photographer and your response clarifies this for me. TFPJ

OK, so far fish-eye is just a novelty as far as I can tell. I just cannot find value in the fisheye lens for the 3DR solo other than a wide angle.

Hey Folks, I have too many projects on my plate already. Has anyone written a utility to download the logs from the Solo and then use them to Geotag the GoPro files? Thank you

Hi, I have two 3Drs with GP4 Blacks, and I plan to upgrade at least one with a PEAU 3.97 lens and software upgrade. I am not a professional videographer, but why would I want to have fisheye if I were a videographer? Thank you

Thank you Naib! That is the answer I was looking for ... It seems that an app can be written to find the log files on the solo and add the geocoding ... The app would have to run on a/the PC once the files are uploaded ... The underlying question is 'why this has been done', and you answered...

Hi, Can I have a high level detailed explanation of the two connectors on my gimbal do? There is the big one and the little one. Can the HDMI communicate in both directions? Is there a specification on the web? Is it possible to geotag the images through hdmi instead of the the manual ftp...

Hey Folks, I came pretty close. It seems you should not use wide angle on the gopro as it is fisheye and that causes a failure when uploading files to recap. Once I get this going, I'll make a Youtube video with all of my new found information. I have not had time to refly without using wide...

Hey Folks, I appreciate the support. Even with some gimbal issues - no camera feed - I was able to plot and film a local park under construction using Solex and Mission Planner. I also learned zip line and orbit today. I’ll update all of my firmware tonight and try to get the camera to display...

I appreciate the conversation and help. Thanks ...

Low and slow ... I know how to set a point of interest, but would I want to fly the Solo sideways? 90 degrees to actual flight, facing the building? Is that possible?

Great information guys. I have plans to test the next few weekends ... I have Mission planner and I've ordered an Android tablet for Solex. We have a lot of construction going on at the closed Naval ship yard and I want to photogram(?) their buildings ... More later ... I plan to start...

Hi Folks, I am a teacher and I want to learn photogrammetry using my solo with a GoPro 4. My first simple questions are: 1) How fast does a solo go by default on a 'Mission' 2) What speed should I use for photogrammetry as a start 3) Default time between photos to start? 4) Photo or video? -...
