Had a great time flying this AM but not with Solo. One is grounded and I'm nervous about flying number two with all of the failures that have been occurring. Un-boxed a new Blade 350 QX3 AP Combo that I purchased prior to buying my two Solo's. It was cool. From un-boxing to airborne took about 9 minutes. No problems at all everything worked as described. Flying it is very manual. It got GPS lock in about 30 seconds. Take off and landing is manual but it does have a return to home function that works as long as you have GPS signal. If you lose GPS it will not RTH. It shoots video and stills at will in 1080P 60fps. Gimbal works very well. All-in-all a great experience. My point is at least I can fly and shoot good quality pics while I'm waiting for 3DR to get it's act together. I'm so glad I have a low tech. but flyable backup airframe.
