Put me in as a new user... The Solo joins my Phantom 4. Does two make a fleet?^Agreed. I think there Is more shelf stocking going on from existing owners than flying from new owners.
I just got into an intense discussion with a video production manager. He wants to purchase the GOPRo Karma because of it's compactness and the handgrip. I told him, "there is only a difference less than 6" in height when packed-up." I also told him, "for $399 +tax you get way more features and production value from the SOLO." He said, The value is the compactness.^Agreed. I think there Is more shelf stocking going on from existing owners than flying from new owners.
LOL... I wish.. Congrats to the purchase!!!! I think a fleet is at least 8...JEJE.. I prefer to say squadron, but I am not even a squadron because like you I only have two sUAS.Put me in as a new user... The Solo joins my Phantom 4. Does two make a fleet?
Some people say there is no difference in the contents.
I disagree.
I have a Solo from 2015 with the box on the right, it had no extensions.
I bought one from BB 2 days ago, it looked like the box on the left, It HAD extensions!
Hey who you calling crazy? Haha.... I've got several also and so far have resisted the sirens calling from the BestBuy shoals for yet another one. I have too many, but I have flown them all and they worked fine out of the box with me installing the gimbals. All updates went OK, no erratic fly aways, no weird behavior. I did exchange one twitchy gimbal for one I bought directly from 3DR, but no issues with these birds they fly great. I wish I could fly them in a swarm, that would be so cool to watch.but perhaps an equal amount of crazies like me

I understand the compactness, but I do not understand why people fail to see all the features of the SOLO and the open software so that developers can develop more features versus the gopro Karma apears to be closed.
its a tragedy. i don't understand why people don't 'get' all the features of solo. but if dji puts those same features in a phantom, all of a sudden its innovative.
Hey all. New solo owner took advantage of the $399 BB package (almost bought two). My local store didn't have all of the parts so I picked up the drone and the rest is being shipped to my house for free and two day shipping. For that price point it can't be beat. I didn't realize that it required at least a Hero3+ to operate properly... I only had an old Hero3 Sliver. Soooo I bought a new Hero4 Sliver too. ^_^ can't wait to get the gimbal in the next day or so and get it going. BTW how do I know if my unit has the rev B gps unit? Is it by SN or what?
