Get a 3DR Solo quadcopter with gimbal for $799

I feel your pain, having missed out on a lens sale. Grrrr

Fyi, for those that missed the "sale", I noticed that B&H, Best Buy and some others still list the Solo and gimbal at the sale price.

When the secret sale started, I called B&H gave them the details and tried to get them to match. With their free shipping to Canada, they would be a better deal. They said no dice.

I've had your experience, but much worse with DJI. Want to buy my P2 plus with Gimbal and FPV? Great deal with 2 batteries and a backpack for $799

You know what? I actually would except that 3DR finally got back to me and verified that there was something wrong with my controller. Apparently the initial flight logs I sent over showed that the drone was working fine, but they never looked at the controller logs. The inputs are messed up on the controller and the gimbal is incorrectly shifting its angle repeatedly. They're offering to replace both and I think that seems like a fair deal. If this works, maybe I'll finally get a good shot to fly this thing.

I've had 2 Solo's, returned both but not for QC reasons.

If you don't mind me asking, why did you return them then?
