At this point I'm kinda on the fence. Reading through the development string I get the impression that it the Solo stuff (parameters) have been added and may always be included in future development. Of course since I can currently get them into the air I am willing to wait longer for further confirmation. On the other hand I do have two virtually identical so it may be worth the risk as, worst case, I would still have one I could fly. I think the packages are still in solex so downgrading back to 4.0.1 through solex should be easy enough. I also fly gopro karmas as well and they had to upgrade their firmware at the beginning of the year due to some kind of problem with how they were handling the "world magnetic model". Makes me wonder if Solo is seeing a similar, or at least related issue. However the reports were that the Karmas wouldn't fly and would fail compass calibration attempts. Very little technical info available. I really wish they would open Karma firmware up as it is the only consumer drone I'm aware of that can use Hero 5 through 7. Of course the interest may not be there for someone to pick it up and take the time to further develop it. Alternately, and perhaps even better, if someone were to develop a Hero 5-7 gimbal adapter for the Solo....
