The gimbal was working fine until the other day while trying to add a modification I somehow blew out the gopro. I currently am waiting for my gopro to be returned, until then my main question is. Does the camera have to be installed for the go pro power up, or does the gimbal have power rather...
My gimbal stopped workong on day. It is limp although blinking. I go into firmware and it shows nothing for the gimbal. My controller says gimbal not found. When i turn on the drone the gimbal wont stabilize, nor turn on the gopro. I do receive video feed though.
I uninstalled the ap, reset the...
Hi all,
I've just got my 3DR Solo. It was a "factory refurbished" unit I bought on eBay from USA and had delivered to me in the UK. I also ordered and fitted the genuine gopro gimbal to go with my existing GoPro hero 4 Silver.
When it arrived, I followed all the instructions and updated all...
*Solo gimbal camera tilt error*
Good morning I just bought the bundle with a backpack, gimble and some additional probs.
Today was my second flight, and on each flight Im receiving and error message on the controller; ¨manual control disconnected, please contact 3dr technical support ¨, the...
A few days ago I purchased a Solo gimbal from Ebay. After testing it I found that it is stabilizing as expected on pitch and roll axis, while on the yaw axis it is behaving different compared to my previous Storm32 3D gimbal. The Solo gimbal seems more, or absolutely "stiff" on the yaw axis. If...

I just received a refurbished unit and I'm beginning to regret sending in my original. The refurb has a problem that wasn't there before. I'll take off and have video, get in the air and cannot start recording. If I hit the record button it quickly flashes the screen and then goes back to the...
I am aware that there is already a thread on this, however I would like to share my own progress with this
project and receive the help and input of others. I have already assembled the PVC rig and made a mounting plate for the gimbal. I have the "gimbal data" cable but, the current issue with...
I got a bestbuy gimbal installed and on startup the gimbal does nothing but blink blue. Camera feed through hdmi is good and it's balanced but never moves on its own. Solo,app and controller are updated but I noticed under settings the gimbal firmware is blank. Wires are good and not...
my GoPro and solo with gimbal have been working with out problems, but all of a sudden the GoPro keeps beeping and the red light keeps flashing, on my phone the video shuts off and then comes back on while its beeping. any ideas ??
Hi all,
I am a new user of 3DR Solo drone and I would like to share my recent investigation. My problem was that controller could not recognize gimbal and tilt didn't work at all. I have checked gimbal with other Solo drone and evrything was OK. I knew that something wrong is between the gimbal...
Can't seem to find anything online or anybody who has tried it, but has anybody balanced the Letus anamorphic on the 3DR Solo gimbal? I am willing to mod the gimbal and get one specifically to mod for the anamorphic adapter as they are cheap enough now to do so. I have tons of experience...
Hello 3DR Pilots!
I've posted a new Tinker Time Treehouse episode on YouTube and I think people will enjoy it. I made a departure towards longer explanation videos for a few instalments and people have been asking that I make the videos more like the Neo- M8N GPS Video that I posted a few...
Update: I was able to straighten the yaw arm and the gimbal is working great. The tool below is NOT the correct method for straightening out the yaw arm. The arm should be completely removed from the gimbal to correct any bend or offset...See page 2 posts for further details and tools used...
I though about hijacking this thread but my issue is not exactly the same and I didn't really find a similar issue after spending an hour or so using search. In any case, my gimbal slowly went wonky on my last flight, at first in yaw and then in roll. I still seemed to have pitch control. Roll...
Knowing now that everyone on this forum has at LEAST 6 spare gimbals packed away in their closet, is there a way to make a DIY handheld gimbal to use with the goPro? at $40 for the solo gimbal, I feel like a lot of bang for your buck could be had with the Karma Grip running at $299
I know that...
So I'm a beginner PIC to the 3DR Solo, and I have been reading a lot about the Solo + Gimbal having the ability to communicate with the GoPro when attached to the Gimbal, giving you the use of certain functions/features. A few being the ability to Start/Stop Recording, Shoot photos on command &...
