I just ordered a Solo a few days ago, I should have it soon. I got the $350 deal from Best Buy. It includes an extra battery, gimbal, extra props & carry bag. I've been watching this package for a while & it finally dropped to a price I couldn't resist. This will be my first real drone ... I...
Hello all. I bought a new Solo yesterday. Did updates and went into the solo app to calibrate sensors and it fails. I went ahead and did a little test flight and it seems to be behaving other than the female voice saying GPS lost constantly which makes me nervous. Anyway I launched tower and it...
Man this drone has been very frustrating this month, but today takes the cake. I am seriously considering getting out while I am somewhat ahead,selling the glitchy freezing gopro hero4 black as well and getting a Mavic.
34F foggy morning because snow is evaporating. No wind. About 5 minutes...
Hi there. My charging power pack blew this evening and I won't manage to get a new one for a few days, but I need the batteries charged for a job I'm starting tomorrow.
Are there any short term fixes that you could suggest to get the batteries charged? i.e wiring it to another power pack etc...
I just got my Solo this past summer. I have not flown in temps below freezing. I'd like to fly today and the temp is not supposed to be above 33°. Has anyone had bad experiences in cold temps? Or am I good to go?
Thanks for any input
I've seen quite a few pics of this neon green frame that i must have but I can't find a retailer for the life of me. Not even on ebay. Any idea where I can score one? I guess the only other option would be to have it plasti-dipped but I'd rather just pay out... Thanks for any leads!
Selling my Solo, hardly used, excellent condition. I live in San Diego, CA. Asking $500.

Just ordered the Solo with gimble. Does anyone know if it comes with a mount for the transmitter for either a smartphone or tablet, or do I have to order separately? Thanks.
I wound up tearing her down and wedging a piece of corrugated cardboard between the chip and that copper UFO paper. I didn't pick up many more satellites than usual but on 6 sats I flew out 1200ft.... Previous record was 650ft (distance). I didn't even run it out all the way, wound up hitting...
Hi All-
Fairly new to the Solo, but love it so far...
I have had a couple of minor crashes early on and now my Solo always seems like it's flying very wobbly. I read a few threads that this is common at high speeds (which I see as well), but even when I'm hovering, it is still very wobbly...
Does anyone know what the part number is for the Solo controller battery connector?
I can only find the info on the battery that goes on the Solo itself, not the one that goes in the Tx.
I'm in Virginia Beach, VA with a 3DR Solo, two Hero 3+ Blacks, and a Hero 4 Silver. Having a blast zooming around the most eye-catching spots in Hampton Roads, often with my wife and 4 daughters along for the adventure.
As for future drone action, I'm not sure if I'll get a Karma (though I'll...
Love the Solo and what it does. But it's too bulky so I'm getting the Mavic. Wish I could keep both but too much money to keep both lol. Anyone want it before I return to Best Buy. I have 3 set of props $9 2 extra batteries $50 each the drone at 399. And the backpack for $60 let me know guys. I...
Now we know that the stock Solo app is actually pretty darn good. It has everything you need and it is easy to use.
But I thought I would delve a little deeper and use the way points offered in Tower.
I noticed that the control is very nice, however you lose the function the solo app provides...
I am trying to find the best settings for doing aerial mapping. I understood there are better cameras or even the option to replacel GoPro lens with 5.4mm Peau but I am trying to work with what I have...if possible.
So far, I've been testing with DroneDeploy, even though they say seem to...
