I seem to recall reading a statement about a flight simulator specifically for the solo. I went by my local best buy and they have a SOLO displayed and the controller connected to a tv monitor where one could use the controller and virtually fly a SO
Read more…Has anyone started working on retracts for the Solo?I think I might tinker with it while I wait for the gimbal to arrive.
Read more…have a couple of batteries 100% charged, but because of work i'm not able to fly my SOLO, how can i discharge those batteries?? like with regular lipo batteries you just plug it in to your charger and get them discharged.
Read more…How low are you guys draining your battery per flight?
I have been testing it slowly, 20%...8% etc...
What I am wondering is if this smart drone will leave enough juice to return home based on how far away it is from that location?
I have been hitting t
Read more…The local authorised Australian distributors have been announced along with a pricing which almost left me with my jaw hitting the floor. Based on pre orders the local Solo will be priced around $1800 AUS, this appears to be really expensive even whe
Read more…Since it appears that 3DR will not honor the 30 day money back guarantee, it occurs to me that maybe my loss can benefit some of the others in the same spot I found myself in - unable to fly and no replacement parts available.
At the time of this pos
Since no images are geotagged during flight how can I do that. I want to be able to use pix4d to process images. If someone has step by step instructions that would be very helpful.
Read more…So my Solo lost communications with the controller when it was close by on the return path of executing an automated Selfi.
The strange thing was that communications was perfect at the start, and through 90% of the Selfi as it flew up and away to its
We’ve heard a lot of users wondering if Tower’s advanced functionality—waypoints, flight modes, autonomy, parameters, etc.—would be accessible via Solo.
We’re happy to officially say YES: Tower is available to advanced users interested in advanced mi
Read more…I've been staring at the Solo case thinking of ways to make it last longer. Possibilities:
Hello,
I received my Solo the other day. Something I believe went wrong during the first time upgrade.
My controller now shows the version on the controller as 1.0.5 and nothing on the Solo itself?
Now it just sits for ever showing "Waiting for Solo" w
Read more…I think I am past dissatisfaction and have no reason to expect that they will honor this either.
I would like to know if anyone has had success in actually returning a Solo...
Read more…I’m new at this. I just built a HK S500 quad copter and I’m trying to install APM Mission Planner 2.017 to HK Pilot 2.7. I no longer can find “APM GPS with external compass” in Initial Set Up so I used “APM with 3DR GPS/Compass”. When I did “Live
Read more…Just a heads up for landing procedures -- when 3DR says a level take-off and landing location, they mean it.
Was on a site with very little level ground and was pushing the limits on where the Solo would take off and land. I took off from one location
Read more…Hi,
many people here in Germany and rest of Europe asking for Solo launch in Europe.
Is it a date or timeline / plan for a launch?
many thanks in advanced!
Read more…Hi all,
I've been flying SOLO for about 3 weeks and being a long time APM user decided to take a look at the logs and run Auto-Analyze on a couple and I noticed a warning that the Mag Field Offset is reported as high. Previous versions of APM allowed
Read more…I must be missing something, how do you adjust the orbit shot radius (iOS)?
I can see the manual says use the right stick, at what point in flight or shot setup? Can you lower the radius to less than 65 feet? When I move the right stick up or down, do
Read more…Updated and took Solo out to fly yesterday evening. Was surprised to all of a sudden see flashing red lights and signal loss - no control. Waited and finally Solo initiated a RTH. Tested again and got this photo.
Note 2 bars at 43.6 feet and 17.6 feet
Read more…Flew yesterday with the 1.0.5 update. All's well (haven't seen the GPS problems so far, even pre-update), but I lost the video feed from my GoPro (Hero 4 Silver). Black screen only in the Android app.
Anyone had the same problem? Found a fix?
Thanks,
Er
Read more…The forum seems to be captivated by a number of Solo crashes. When I search for Solo crashes, I am not seeing the vast numbers that I would expect to see based on the threads. No one wants their new drone to crash (mine did and is out of commission
