    First crash :/ will this effect my warranty?

    Hi guys new to the group and to flying Solo. I've been a phantom 3 pilot for about 2 years with no crashes. I flew my Solo today in very fast mode...that was my first mistake, I didn't realize quite how much faster/responsive that would make my drone. I also flew through some tree cover which...

    Are flyaways covered when....?

    Hi, I was just wondering whether or not a flyaway would be covered by 3dr if you were using Solex or the Tower app when the flyaway occurred. I'm thinking that they would only honor a flyaway if the person was using the Solo app only. Anybody have any knowledge on this? Thanks!

    Exactly what logs should I email to 3DR to see if a crash is warranty-worthy?

    Exactly what logs should I email to 3DR to see if a crash is warranty-worthy? I downloaded the DataFlash logs using Mission Planner from the crash flight and the two previous. Anything else? Should they be in any certain folder format? I was using Solex, so do I need to package them in a way...

    Not a fly-away but not far from it. Solo rolled upside down and slammed to the ground

    Bought a used battery on CL - D'OH!!!!

    If it's too good to be true, it probably is. I obviously know it to be true but still it somehow manages to bite me right in the ass every now and again... After a harvest shoot on a weekend trip to the inlaws' farm and constantly needing just a couple minutes more out of my 2 almost dead...

    My 3DR Experience

    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...
