"Matthew,
Have you checked that you've got the green wire going to Serial 2 RX, white wire to TX, and black to Ground? I think Craig mentioned that the white and green were reversed in the cable he bought.
The 2 pin connectors go to the Ch6 and Ch7…"

"Awesome, glad I could help.
Out of interest which Pixhawk firmware version did you end up using?"

"Craig,
You were asking about software to read the geotags - you should just be able to do it in Windows Explorer. Right click on the image, select Properties, go to the Details tab, then scroll down to the GPS section."

"This post is specifically about telemetry and the 3DR Solo.
Your post and your website don't have any photos of how you can fit this on a Solo.
You haven't mentioned whether telemetry is transmitted through the gimbal (I doubt it).

"Yes, that all looks correct.
**BUT**
Do not do this, yet. If you change the SERIAL2_PROTOCOL parameter you will probably brick your Solo (ie it will never boot up properly).
When you look at your Solo app you will see that the firmware version is…"

"Thanks for getting back to me.
I actually managed to get it to work.
You have to turn on the telemetry feed in the Pixhawk. Change SERIAL2_PROTOCOL to 1, keep the baud rate at 57.
BUT be aware that changing this parameter caused my (and others)…"

"Hi Craig,
Did you get this working? I've just hit the same problem.
Any advice you can offer would be appreciated. I've tried connecting the Flir cables to the SER2 outputs on the Solo with no luck."

"Thanks for the advice guys.
Because of the nature of the camera there's no real way to wrap it like you can a GoPro. By the time you make cutouts for all four lenses it gets a bit pointless.
I've attempted to get some layers of aluminium foil and…"

Hi guys,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.Unfortunately as soon as I turn the Bubl on it kills the Solo's GPS reception - not only reducing the overall…
"I'm also in Perth, but I went to Canberra to do my RPAS with FPV Australia (run by John Fleming who also has the Mongrel Gear retail website). I can totally recommend John and Roger the instructor - he's an ex Army pilot so he's great for the…"
"UAV Controllers Certificates are not model specific.
Rather than dictate each specific model of aircraft that you can fly, they are issued with class restrictions instead ie "Multirotor <7kg" or "Multirotor <20kg".
So as part of your Controller…"
