    Any reliable info from B&H?

    Felt I should check in. Gimbal arrived and installed. Updated everything, haven't flown it yet, but camera connects, gimbal responds to controls, now it's about performance. Hopefully will have a good test this week. And FYI: I never received a shipment e-mail from B+H for the gimbal.I had to...

    Any reliable info from B&H?

    My BH app and account said it shipped 9/9 but no e-mail confirming. Got a tracking number though. Supposed to arrive 9-14 I was a 4/16 preorder btw. Finally!

    Any reliable info from B&H?

    I've called B+H 10 times since first ordering the Solo. I got my free battery a month ago with my solo bundle pre-order. I had to call them a couple times to make sure they send the product as it becomes available. Last time I called them before receiving the free battery, the operator said...

    Any reliable info from B&H?

    Same info I got last week. They said 8/30, 9/7, 9/17, etc. for the waves of shipments. I too preordered 4/16 and they said there is a good chance I am in the first wave, but no guarantees.

    Return Question

    That's what scared me away from the P3 --- stress cracks due to the construction. Honestly, at this point -- if the P3 LOOKED substantially different than the Solo, and had a more robust shape -- I might even consider jumping ship. But I guess I have to hold on for another month for this thing...

    Peau Productions 4.35mm f/2.8 GoPro Lens

    I'm in production and I've been looking for a good example of this exact lens. First off, what's going on 0:48 - 1:00 ? That blue hot spot that appears in the upper-middle of shot. Very strange. Also Did you not opt for the pink corner filter? It's noticeable even in the thumbnail. Sharpness...

    The "GPS glitch"

    Up until this point I have been landing fully manually. Trigger RTH then pause to see how far off my take off point was and land manually. In the same location, with same winds, my RTH point was almost pin point accurate. The second takeoff, which was about 5 feet away from my first takeoff...

    The "GPS glitch"

    This thread was interesting. On a note about CS -- I had an open ticket that was sent as a preventative trouble ticket, even though I had no real issue because it turned out to be a geo-fencing issue, so the Solo is working fine. 3DR got back to me since I didn't respond to their advanced log...

    HDMI Output from Controller

    This would be a feature used on set and on productions so clients and director can monitor shot without being on top of you.

    Has anyone been successful in getting 3DR to honor their money back guarantee?

    Its been posted dozens of times. A little bit of research would yield those results. I don't care how much experience you have flying or whatever. If you are going to bring an attitude and start barking at a CS rep about a defective product or sending passive aggressive emails back and forth...

    Has anyone been successful in getting 3DR to honor their money back guarantee?

    Listen, it takes a while to get through to some people. Looks like 3DR is making good, and might be reading all this discourse, but this is why I chose them. Funny we are so wrapped up in another users issue, but from the get go it seemed that there were communication failures with what he...

    GoPro Connectivity Issues

    You had your go pro connected , on, and in video mode before powering on solo? I wrote a couple times how I fixed this same problem and the tip came from another user on this board, I just reposted how I did it earlier in this thread. Make sure the cable is also in properly. Good luck! Also...

    First Flight!

    I meant choosing position repositions the clip. So yes you are seeing right. Especially in a handheld shot for an interview for example, subspace warp makes no sense. However it could work in your scenario. Depends on the shot and movement. Hopefully this filter won't be needed when our...

    First Flight!

    The standard method of warp stabilize is "Subspace Warp" which creates that bubbly dreamt effect that is worse than gopro distortion IMO. In some cases it works. In others you just need frames to be repositioned and cropped (which it will do automatically) Check out my video here. Obviously no...
