Hello.
Has anyone started using APM Planner with their SOLO for mission planning?
If you have, would you please share with me how I can make the connection. Do I have to dismantle my SOLO to get to the Autopilot or can it be done via the SOLO's wir
I got a Solo last week and took it out for its maiden flight on Friday. To my chagrin, the tablet mount doesn't fit a full size iPad. But I flew it anyway. Love it. Big fun.
Now, I had a Galaxy Tab 3 sitting on the shelf gathering dust so I decide

I need the expertise of you guys to help me out, basically to understand how the SOLO battery is used.
Here are my simple questions that I am struggling with:
Since my bird is grounded this weekend I figured I'd play with the logs a bit.
However I've gotten a bit confused. Can you clear this up?
The controller is at 10.1.1.1.
The Solo is at 10.1.1.10.

I've just got my hands on one of the new Bubl cameras (www.bublcam.com) so of course the first thing to do was mount it on my Solo.

I'm a developer looking to purchase my 1st drone and I'm not sure if the solo is the best option for me. It definitely looks like the best hardware + mounts the pixhawk2 which can't be purchased separately, but I'm concern that I might

Personally, I've never been a fan of storing props loose in a bag or case. I've gotten used to it, but I don't like it. Props should be protected. The sli
