I just recently developed this problem which I never had before. Up until this weekend I never had an issue with the video feed. I went on vacation to Vermont and I was REALLY looking forward to getting some good footage in the mountains and valleys up there. First day, everything was fine, Solo flew great, video was fine, no issues at all (except a minor one listed below) but I had to cut the flight short after about a minute because it was a bit windy. Next day everything was perfect, sunny, no wind, warmer temps. But...no video feed. The screen was black most of them time, and when I actually got a feed, it looked like the picture attached (see first image attached).
Another weird thing I noticed on the first flight was that 1) no audio was recorded, and 2) the video that I recorded showed the GoPro settings and time on the video (see second image attached)...which never happened before. I don't want the time and settings to show on the recorded video.
Today (back at home in FL) I took off the gimble, checked all the wiring connections, and updated to the software that was just released. Also tried a different GoPro, reset everything, tried a few different power-on sequences, quit the app, etc etc. Nothing helped so I submitted a ticket to 3DR.
Hopefully they help me out, but I thought I'd share my experience in the meantime. Nothing is more disappointing then travelling 1300 miles for vacation with your Solo only to not be able to get any good footage.
