Still waiting......was told by DSLRPros I should be getting a shipping notice any day.
When will they start shipping where you are? I notice in the latest update they have the EU option for the radio.

received Solos gimbal yesterday and got a flight in before getting chased inside by mother nature.

I need more time to work out the capabilities, but on first impression I'm very impressed. The stabilization is great. Control over my gopro 3+ is lacking. I do not have the ability to change any camera settings on the fly, however on the bench I was able to use the shutter release in all modes and I was able to stream 4k video. Hope to have more video to post in the coming days.

Yes, I picked up some blades in the sloppy footage. It's filmed at the recommended GP settings.

has anyone that has ordered from 3Dr directly received theirs yet? I ordered mine early May, gave them a recent reauthorization of my card and even through email and the person I've been speaking to I can no longer reach. Said I was supposed to get some info monday the latest and I havent heard a single thing.

Also do you think by mid september it might to find stock on store shelfs?

I'm hesitant to call a 3rd time to find out whats going on but im feeling Im going to have to do that, again.

On the 3DR facebook page, 3DR states that Best Buy pushed the release date of the gimbal back and that people should contact Best Buy...WTF

I ordered from 3DR on May 6th and received my Gimbal on Monday.

I ordered from 3DR on June 4th and am still waiting... an e-mail exchange yielded "Pending Fulfillment Status" as all they could tell me. Have had my Solo about 3 weeks so far.
