Por favor

En español

No es intuitiva y le falta mucho para el precio!

Si eres un piloto común no es muy fácil de usar ya que las funciones no las encuentras fácilmente ademas que solo esta disponible en el idioma ingles, les recomiendo que hagan un update pronto porque no es viable como opción para su uso.

Plug and play

This app is pretty amazing. It just works. One thing that I have to work out is why many functions are “unsupported” (I think that’s what the voice was saying). Any ideas? Thanks for the useful app. Very much worth the money.

3DR Solo drone

Tom this app is so great! You should be proud of the quality work you’ve done for all of us Solo iPhone pilots. I couldn’t even imagine how I could even be able to get my drone in the air without this incredible app. Thanks so much Tom

Brought my Solo back to life

I don’t really leave reviews ever, but this app is so fantastic that I almost felt obligated to. Like a lot of people, when support ended for my Solo drone, the app was gone and I had eventually moved on with my phone so I could no longer fly my drone. Recently I dusted it off to see if I could get it going again and immediately had issues with calibration, but since the app was gone I couldn’t calibrate it, and couldn’t even fly it in manual mode. I found this app and used it to upgrade the firmware on both the drone and the controller with ease, and I was also able to calibrate the drone and get it flying with my live video feed working as well. I’m just now starting to mess with the map and waypoints and everything, but it looks intuitive so far, and there is good documentation provided. If you have a 3DR Solo that’s dead in the water, this app gives you everything you need to get her back in the air. I *highly* recommend it.

Solo app for iPhone

I’m using the app to fly my solo drone with! And it works great. I can’t imagine what you could do without the help of this amazing app. Keep Flying

Saved my drone

Without this app, I would not be able to use my drone anymore. It does the job well worth the money spent.

Excited to see developer starting again. Please keep doing up dates!

Excited to see developer starting again please keep doing updates!

Will not let youUpdate controller out of pre flight

Why!

Gimbal left right movement

I have up and down movement but no left and right. The rest of the app works great. Just have to edit a leg on post out. Like the waypoints.
