First flight with Solo

[Phil Hover]

Had fun with my first flight. Windy day and had to do some post stabilization. Really want the gimbal to come out. 2.7K 60p to 24p Hero 4B

Thanks Phil. Yea looks like we are going to need to gimbal badly

So how did it fly? And what do you have to compare to?

It (the Solo) looks fairly reactive, did it feel that way white flying?

It was very easy to fly and good at holding position. Did very well in the wind despite the GoPro shaking all over. Hero shot is awesome.

Yes, there is a slider to determine how fast or slow it moves. For this flight, it was on the slowest setting.

Hey everyone. Here is my 2nd flight with minimal post. Seems the update is doing its job. The only thing I did notice that the update left out was the record button in the app. Not sure if this was intentional but was a bit of a pain to turn on before launch.

I think that was Troy's first Solo flight since he updated the firmware. Not much difference between the onboard video and camera video.

Lovely video. I'm quite impressed with the overall smoothness of the video despite not having the gimbal. Good work!
