    3DR Solo + Backback w/ Controller, 2 Batt and such – $150

    Sorry about that too... I wasn't intentionally moving past anyone, I had no idea how to use that thing either until I figured it out yesterday. To start one, click on the person's name (phone or computer) and choose "start a conversation" from the pop up. That's for getting one started. To...

    3DR Solo + Backback w/ Controller, 2 Batt and such – $150

    billtakos I was able to PM you yesterday, not sure if you saw it. I've returned other PMs, and started the one to you SKuhn68.

    3DR Solo + Backback w/ Controller, 2 Batt and such – $150

    Guess I could have been clear about location (my profile is accurate). I'm in the Dallas/Fort Worth metro area in TX.

    3DR Solo + Backback w/ Controller, 2 Batt and such – $150

    You are going to want to know, this is a flying parts source now. It does fly, really. It was still flying after a ran it into a light pole last year. As you probably would guess, the gimbal was toast, I broke a few props, and there are a few cracks on the body... but she does fly. $150 +...

    Yet another Solo crash... but was it worth it?

    I'm going to buy a Mavic Pro, AND I'm going to get my Solo up and flying again. They each have their own best uses, I think flying and "messing around" I'll be happier flying the Mavic (and maybe not crashing?). But I do like multi-point cable cam quite a bit... so the Solo is going to stick around.

    Yet another Solo crash... but was it worth it?

    Thanks! I few dumb@$$es have tried telling me that the car sounds bad (in the video), but I get compliments and smiles everywhere I take it. The Solo actually did pretty well after this crash. I have clamped and superglued the minor cracks closed on the body, bought a new set of props (on the...

    Yet another Solo crash... but was it worth it?

    With my crash to flight record, that may be true for me too. Mavic Pro calling my name. We left a car group (that I co-founded locally) for the exact same reasons.

    Yet another Solo crash... but was it worth it?

    We were in ATX, and just recently came back. Haven't gotten involved in any groups yet, but I need to. I was actually in your neck of the woods today (kid's band concert), but my car is usually sticking close to Forney.

    Yet another Solo crash... but was it worth it?

    Pyrate got it right, and in so many less words.

    Yet another Solo crash... but was it worth it?

    That's sort of a baited question isn't it? What's the point of sport fishing, tagging as art, body piercings, stunt flying, base jumping, Flappy Bird, WWE, or pretty much anything that some people, not all, are interested in. Asking in such a way is unlikely to provide you with a response that...

    Yet another Solo crash... but was it worth it?

    Third crash for me –second time it wasn't me. I had some footage that I really needed to capture, so even though the weather sucked (mostly cloudy, VERY windy), I went out to and captured anyway. Not as much usable stuff as I would have liked, but I got good footage (not necessarily good shots)...
