    One of the best editorials or reviews I've seen yet about the 3DR Solo. I was so impressed I went out and bought one with the gimbal and am very happy I did! I don't have a lot of time flying it yet but it is very easy to operate. One of your good points was to listen and watch the Solo school video before I had operated the unit. I think the price of the unit makes one make sure they know what they are doing before just throwing it up in the air! Again I thank you for this video and would like to see you do another review with the gimbal. Thank you, Robbie.

    As I know you know Linus, gimbal is a must to film with a multirotor. And I have a question: real controller or tablet for multirotors and/or planes? Persionaly I'm all out for real controllers when it comes to this and am offended when someone who can't fly with other that the latest and greatest tablet on the market and a gps path says I can't fly and that i don't know the right way to fly multirotors. I had a small multirotor before I had to return it to my friend and have started with some flips from time to time. Now i'm back to my fixed pitch helicopter and a car or two. Would be happy to hear your response and keep up the good work.

    Linus SHOULD do a Dji Phantom 3 Professional review which is a REALLY good competitor to the Solo drone. To name some of the Phantom 3 features, it comes with a pre-installed gimbal, a high quality 4K camera without the fish eye effect and transmits live footage from the camera up 1,2km (or even 3-7km) from the controller. Plus, its available in most locations, including in Sweden, were the Solo apparently is not yet available. The Phantom 3 is at least as cool and advanced as the Solo. Due to its competitive features and price it should be reviewed as well.

    Mcsteven redulla Here’s the pitch on the technology Solo has that no other consumer drone does: Wireless HD downlink from GoPro® to iOS or Android from half a mile-no other drone does that. Exclusive and industry-first Smart Shots for one-touch, one-take easy aerial cinema: Cable cam, Orbit, Follow and Selfie. It can follow you. It goes 55 mph. Exclusive GoPro access for in-flight camera control and charging, including stop and start recording in flight. Pixhawk 2 next-gen autopilot - with redundancy for your redundancy. Industry leading customer support with full flyaway replacement and 30-day money-back guarantee. Gimbal presets with adjustable auto tilt control and adjustable speed control. One-touch emergency airbrake. Open gimbal bay for us or third parties to add new cameras and sensors to Solo’s carrying capacity. Open accessory bay for just about any other type of drone tech innovation you can think of, from us or others.

For that reason, I'm leaning more toward the model that pulls it's landing gear up after takeoff, out of the way of the camera.

    W. James Hamel Solo’s gimbal and computers communicate with the autopilot in real time so that Solo always knows which direction you’re pointing the camera and can rotate accordingly. Basically, panning the camera is like panning the whole copter-Solo automatically adjusts to keep the legs out of the shot. It’s essentially a virtual 360-degree gimbal, without the extra cost and mechanical points of failure for retractable legs.

    3D Robotics in order to accomplish that (Keeping the legs out of the shot), the camera would have to be mounted lower than the legs, which would make landing it (on the legs) impossible. I understand the ability to keep the legs out of the shot if the lens is angled downward 45 degrees or so, but what if the drone is flying level with that which you want to shoot and that shot is parallel to the legs? Or are you saying that the camera would never point in the direction of the legs and the drone would always rotate fore and aft to keep the legs out of the shot?
