Thanks!!Likely antenna related, poor physical connection along the antenna cabling. There are a few threads here similar to your description, search the forum for what others found as a cause...
I had similar back when, mine just required tightening the controller's antennas properly...never been a problem since.
It sounds like you have a problem at a connector or cable that the vibration of flight is making visible through video problem. It could be the HDMI connector in the GoPro, the gimbal, the internal HDMI cable, or the connector at the IMX6 inside the Solo and under the main board. I wouldn't rule out an antenna connection yet either, but now knowing when the problem started you'll need to look at the connections in the Solo. You will have to do some further testing to narrow it down. Start by testing the GoPro HDMI to a TV - gently wiggle the connection while connected. Then bypass the Gimbal and see if the problem goes away. Check internal HDMI cable, the connector discussed in the thread that @Maddog pointed out, and while you have the main board lifted you can check the antenna connections/wires like @RichWest pointed out - now checking them inside the Solo.Hi I am using a samsung S8. It starts with feedback and as soon as it starts flying it stops. Controller works great though. It never happened before until landing it it touched something and flipped breaking all the propellers. I opened the gimbal attachment and the hdmi and power cable were propperly inside.
You are right. i actually forgot about that because it didn't really fell from high and it got to fly normal for a bit. actually it was not long ago that i remembered that that happened.It would have been helpful if you had told us initially it flipped an damaged itself. That could cause a lot of different problems, making troubleshooting more difficult.
I opened the Solo, tried to re connect the hdmi and put the foam. still doesnt work. when i son the floor it gives me video as soon as it starts flying start having problems and then goes to rolling screen or black.Check this thread and see if it helps:

Yes. And its as soon as it takes off video start having issues. I had it on the floor and people passing by and me moving around and was working fine. As soon as it took off stop video trqnsmitting.Does it do this at various resolutions and frame rates also?
Only when takes off. as soon as it takes off doesnt work. Thanks!Seems like it's gotta be a loose connection somewhere.
Possibly where HDMI cable plugs into the GoPro?
After you start engines and bring up power, does it go out before liftoff?
Yes. You are going to have to take a pair of needle-nose pliers to that HDMI port on the main board. Give the port a good squeeze and then plug in the HDMI cable. Needs to be really tight. Then you need a stiff piece of foam under it to help keep the pressure on it. Mine started doing this after about a 100 flights (I log all my fly time). And I will likely have to keep doing it from time-to-time and so will you.I opened the Solo, tried to re connect the hdmi and put the foam. still doesnt work. when i son the floor it gives me video as soon as it starts flying start having problems and then goes to rolling screen or black.
The controller how ever gives me full signal for the drone and i can pilot it perfectly. just the video.
any other idea?
Thanks!
