Anyone else having GPS signal loss on version 1.05? I lose GPS every time I get anywhere near a tree. Most occasions it will just throw my into manual mode, but on 3 occasions the solo has locked up in a slight left and forward bank and I have no control. The 3rd time it finally hit some bushes and crashed with no damage. I can get solid GPS locks on ublox 7N and M8N with out any problems on quadcopters I have built. So far I am blown away by the quality of the video link. It has been perfect, but the GPS is making think the Solo is only good in open fields.
 
I lost GPS signal in the backyard and it decided to trim some trees and land upside down, burned #2 pod. Just got in the mail today also. Looks like my venture is over for a bit!

Similar scenario happened to me, but my lockup angle was not slight. It was end over end. Check log files for spontaneous ALT HOLD. That will confirm GPS problems.
