    Please learn from my mistake. Do NOT fly the Solo after a couple of weeks of going without flying. We had been traveling and I was unable to fly. Getting back home I was itching to get back in the air. I started with 57% battery so I figured I'd get about 8 minutes in the air. After getting...

    Follow Me - Looking for Guidance

    Sorry if I'm missing something simple here. I totally see how to setup follow me so Solo will follow my controller. But what if I want to control the camera and angle from one vehicle while Solo follows, let's say, a motorcycle. I'm assuming that I need to put an iPhone in motorcycle guys...

    Just saw these guys doing a demo job on an old apartment complex on my way to work. I stopped and asked if they'd mind me shooting with my Solo and they were fine with it. After I showed it to them, they gave permission to use it any way I wanted. Hey, I made some new friends as well. Demo...

    What is the 3DR Solo ATTI Mode?

    Hi there, I'm getting ready to do my practical flight test to get my CAA qualification, one of the things we're tested on is using "ATTI" mode, which from what I understand is like GPS only it doesn't counteract wind movement...?

    Updated Solo Review - Is it Fixed?

    Most of the Solo reviews out there are all from the launch or focus on the Gimbal (or lack of) so I reviewed the Solo from the perspective of now being out for a while and had a few fixes and patches. See below for what I found and whether you should press go if you have been sitting on the fence.
