Optical Flow works on Arducopter now and works fine on the Solo, Philip Rowse was flying with the optical flow throughout NAB. In the past 3DR has sold optical flow solutions around or slightly under $100 but these aren't as polished as people would expect a retail Solo add-on to be, so I'm >guessing< at a slightly sub $200 price...
I suspect 3DR are currently focusing all their energy on getting GoPro controls out and improving the gimbal software. There's a lot of software considerations when flying inside, for example you'd want RTL disabled, so optical flow will need a lot of testing before being sold as it's going to be in the hands of people far less experienced than the typical Arducopter demographic.
