"Thanks Chip. This turned out to be a problem which I can't fix on my end. 3DR will replace the unit. For a short while there was an issue with 3DR's upgrade server that resulted in firmware being written to the wrong device. Only a handful of people…"
"No, the controller doesn't see Solo when the two are powered on. When I turn the controller off and power up the Solo I see one SSID; when I turn Solo off and turn on the Controller I see another (older) SSID. When both are on I see two, the older…"
"Thanks Erik,
In fact this is/was an issue with 3DR. There was a bug where the update was installing a controller firmware to the Solo. In my case there are in fact two networks with the Solo and the controller using separate network configs. Turning…"

"Thanks Chip, Unfortunately that doesn't work. The controller won't respond to the pair button (tried your sequence several times). I've been in conversation with 3DR support and it looks like it may be an issue related to this release, perhaps…"

I just performed the update to v1.2 and now have two Sololink networks in my settings tab (iOS) - one being the original - Sololink-xxx - the other being a newer Sololink network with the default password. The app seems to recognize only the newer…
"Erik, I'm not sure why it's listed a 'don't do' and perhaps your dual setup avoids the problem but 3DR best practices for Tower recommends not flying autonomous missions or controlling Solo with Tower while in Smart Shots."
"The Mapir camera is a Peau Productions offering. Peau also offers a line of GoPro cameras modified for various uses, including NDVI. It's not clear from information on Mapir's site how close the Mapir is to a modified GoPro, but just looking at the…"
"I've not done an exhaustive test, but it seems to work in a number of different video modes (gopro 4 black) as long as I've completely stopped and restarted the iOS app whenever the controller is restarted. If you're unsure whether the the app has…"
"The latest from 3DR blog (just slightly edited here) includes more on the 1.05 update. They again reiterate to be mindful of objects in close proximity.
"Solo will now fly better in environments where GPS signal may be less accessible or more…"

"A common thread in recent fly-aways is the Solo is flown in close proximity to a structure of some kind. In one video a multi-level home is nearby; in another there's a boat house to the right and a large structure to the rear; in the ill-fated…"
"Great idea, especially the use of frequency/tone as a kind of human-ready API for programming. My only criticism is the price. To back this and receive or donate a kit costs about $500? Is that right? That could put it out of reach of ordinary…"
