If you watch the new Microsoft cloud advertisement, the one showing them tracking mosquitoes, watch very carefully at the beginning for the quad-copters they are flying. Really caught me by surprise.
Guess the commercial side of 3DR might be doing well.
ISSUE:
Received the backpack bundle 3dr solo and when capturing satellites it would give a level error and go back to looking for satellites and give level error again (satellites inside 0 outside 9).Ordered the MRO GPS u-blox Neo M8n/ 3dr solo upgrade($80) and it would capture 15 satellites...
quick question everyone :)
Does the hero 4 silver work fully with the gimble and all controls I hear about it from other users being able to do?
And last but not least will I have to detach the gimble every time I want to put it back in the carrying case it came with?
Just wondering if there...
Soon we will be able to pick up a Kamra for $299.00 LOL
GoPro’s future is now tied to the revival of its Karma drone — the one that fell out of the sky last year
I have an opportunity to buy an Iris hard case for under $100. From a dimension comparison, the Solo is slightly smaller so it looks like it should fit in the case with some 'alterations' to the foam cutouts. The long dimension of the Iris body is perpendicular to the long axis of the rotor...
Testing out follow me mode for the first time. Hope you enjoy the footage.

Just got introduced to this site and this is my first post! I'm new to the drone flying world, so it's good to know there are other folks out there to hopefully spread some wisdom. I have a question that's probably pretty simple.
When I set up a flight plan in Mission Planner, upload it to my...
Hello!
I usually root my phones and like to use custom roms, however, with the used Nexus7-2013 that I bought to use with my new solo (both of them not received yet), I was checking xda and the variety of custom roms is good and with diferent versions of android and their sources...
So, I...
Just figure to ask this question.
Has anyone done any work for DroneBase using the Solo? And if so, can the parameters they want be achieved even if the Solo is used?
Does anyone know if there are any new promo codes for the Solo V2 shield? They worked wonders for my current 2 Solos & I'd like to hook number 3 up. $30 on the 3DR store seems a bit steep. The previous promo codes (FBGPSV2 and 3DRPGPSV2) no longer work
Why didn't I order more when I had the...
Well, had my first ever drone flight the other day! Decided to do it over water in FAR too windy conditions because obviously that's the way to learn your fancy new drone.
Even had to do a landing in manual mode, which was totally terrifying! (the GPS lock got lost when I landed in a cove with...
I just recently got word back after mine was on a cable cam and decided to take a dive in the river without responding to controls, they are NOT going to replace my camera... anyone have where it states in the warranty? I'm seeing it all throughout google searches but I need it in the warranty...
Hi everyone. I thought that GoPro was the only camera that fitted the gimbal. But I found some news from last year that cameras that fit the hardcase for GoPro will fit, also that if you have the time it's possible to develop a own gimbal and make it work for the platform.
I will test a...
Hello I just got my drone and I have done a full flight.
1) Can I get it above 150ft and how?
2) My app wont let me take photos or videos. (Using a Hero 3 white)
3) What is the latest version of the firmware? I want to make sure my drone is up to date
Hi all,
Just picked up the Solo last week at the BestBuy deal and am looking to upgrade my Hero 4 Silver. I'm a long time photographer who is new to drones and I like the idea of a 30mm or 24mm lens. Has anybody purchased these? I only see the 22mm lens mentioned on here.
The 30mm lens has a...
I'm really wanting to get the backpack since it's only $35, but I wanted feedback on whether Solo will fit with Polar Pro leg extensions and the gimbal installed.
I appreciate all answers
Actually, I have called Wisconsin my home, for 61 years, but for the last 20, I have been driving an 18 wheeler all over these 48 states (I, also spent a few hours in AK and HI, when in the Marines, so I belong to the 50 state club)
I took up photography, a few years back, so I could share my...
Hello everyone,
I've been having issues connecting to the app with my iphone. I can connect to the solo wifi but when I enter the app it doesnt connect with the controller or solo. I can use an android to fly solo with video feed without a problem, but when I try using my iphone I cant...
Hi Everybody!
I am looking forward to connect a Solo to a Rover. I am planning to use the Pixhawk 2 cube that came with the Solo. I own two Solos and want to modify one to be a Rover and have the one flying pass coordinates to the one on the ground of an object it identifies. I have been...
