Hey gang!
Me again... and I decided to make a video showing the basic installation of the mRobotics Neo-M8N GPS chip. I'm replacing my Rev A / Original GPS in the Solo. I have previously installed the V2 GPS Shield and you will see it here. Also: part way through this installation I realized...
Hello to all,
First post for me, though following for a while. My issue is that I have have had some recent rolling video feed when I fly my Solo. In the past, I had this issue and 3DR gave me a new HDMI cable, a new gimbal, & ultimately a refurbished Solo.
To diagnose this issue, I have...

Week two with Ylva and Tina aboard. Whitehaven Beach has 99.7% pure silica sand, which makes it pretty white and amazingly soft. Its pretty windy(20knots) when we visit but I decided to fly Solo anyway and end up getting some pretty nice shots of Tina enjoying the beach.
A perfect weather window presented itself so I took off on a solo mission out to Hook Reef, about 8 hours sail from the mainland. Four days of amazingness followed! Great sunsets, good spearfishing and some encounters with sharks made for an epic adventure. The sea was calm enough that I could...
About a month ago I purchased a 3DR SOLO from Best Buy. I was extremely excited to begin creating videos and such with pro level looks. In the beginning the drone had numerous issues but this is to be expected. Every new product has issues and as I went along I fixed most of them. In the end the...
Hi everyone,
I'm going on a trip to california soon and hope to bring my solo with me. I was wondering if anyone has any information regarding specific laws within california. Some resaerching led me to believe it was all very similar to federal laws. I hope to fly around some beaches in san...
Captain Cook came ashore on May 1770 so they just called the place, Town of 1770.
A very beautiful place though and plenty of interesting places to fly my Solo.
Hello everyone! This is my first post and I just got my drone so please forgive me if it's silly. I'm having a problem with my GoPro/Solo combo where when I turn the drone, the leg appears in the image. It's quite frustrating as it kind of ruins my shots/videos. Does anybody have any advice on...
Hello, I am new to the coding for drones. I have a 3dr solo drone. I am simply trying to convert messages from mavproxy protocol or mavlink messages to vb.net. All I need is anything talking about coordinates and gps location. I can get the raw data whenever I type the command 'status' (when I...
Hi everyone!
I was wondering if anyone had any experience purchasing and using propellers not made by 3dr. I found a company called APC Propellers that sells 3dr props and was wondering if you guys had ever heard of them. I was hoping for an alternative to the 15 dollar replacements 3dr offers...
I am planning on driving for 7 straight days in a campervan in Iceland. I have a 3DR solo and 5 batteries but I am certain I will need to have all 5 charged each day because there is something amazing in Iceland every 10 feet. I am driving a minivan with standard power options. Aside from...
Last week we were able to visit Fairhope Alabama along the Gulf Coast. Nice town. Used the 3DR Solo with the GP 4 Black. Post processing done with Adobe Premiere and After Effects. This was my first attempt at some Camera Tracking via After Effects CS6. Here's a 35 second clip.
We are new to 3DR Pilots and have just discovered this Photos and Videos section so we figured we would post a few of our videos.
EDIT 4/27/2016: We just figured we would update this post with some new content!
We love our Solo and have named her Cinderella!
To see updates on our progress...
