New Solo Quad from 3D Robotics
Max Speed Test @ 60fps, GoPro Hero 4, No gimbal (pending release)/stabilization

Short no frills speed test video of the new 3DR Solo. Speed set to fastest in advanced settings, max stick. 55 mph is advertised (I know lots of variables exist + reviewing the tape the straightaway length should have been changed). Test 2 at a bigger track but damn it’s fast and beautiful in real life.

Super impressed by the solid flight control and accuracy, love the design and controls, some maneuvering seemed slow but I’m sure there are even more advanced free flight options available or will be made available soon . So excited by this platform and humbled to have the opportunity to fly and share.

  what kind of filter do you have on it and how did you edit the video what software and did you have to lighten up the software to see the trees when you look at the Sun?

  if you’re a moto vlogger, this thing would be cool. you can have it follow you to capture some cool footage, i reckon. what’s the battery life on these things? i suppose I could google it, but would like to know real world results also.

  Nice video, it will be interesting to see how well filming goes with the gimbal maybe no more legs and props in the view.

  Interesting. Been waiting to see some actual user videos with the Solo. Not loving the way that the props are so heavily in the shot. Nice thing with the Phantom 3 (vs. my P2) is that I rarely get any props or legs in the shot.
