    Detailed Description
    (Manufacturer # SA11A )

    EFFORTLESS FLIGHT STARTS WITH AN INTELLIGENT AND INTUITIVE CONTROLLER.

    Solo's video game-style controller will feel familiar the second you pick it up, even if you've never flown a drone. Pushbutton commands put both camera and copter at your fingertips. Take off, land or instantly pause your flight midair with a single touch. Click to start and stop recording or snap a photo, even adjust camera angle while you fly.
     
    In case you missed it in the picture...that’s a high-quality HDMI port directly from the controller so you can connect Solo to practically any screen you can think of.
     
     
    A new, powerful app makes everything simple and easy.

    The robust new Solo app (for iOS and Android) makes it easy to get the most out of Solo’s smart features. Stream live video to your mobile device and enjoy sophisticated camera and copter control, often with the push of a button.
    A controller that’s smarter than most drones.

    The only controller on the planet with its own 1 GHz computer. This processing power simplifies flight and puts unprecedented control of both the vehicle and camera at your fingertips.
    TOTAL CONTROL AT YOUR FINGERTIPS.
     
    EFFORTLESS FLIGHT
    With ergonomics inspired by popular video game controllers, the Solo controller feels natural from the moment you pick it up. Along with precise flight control sticks, its face features dedicated buttons for one-touch automatic flight, including auto takeoff and land, auto return home and land, and pause.

    COMPLETE CAMERA CONTROL
    Built specifically for aerial photography, the controller allows you to shoot like a pro from day one. Easily adjust camera tilt positions and speed, instantly snap a photo or even start and stop GoPro® recording during flight. All while a crystal clear HD view of the action is streamed directly to your mounted mobile device.
     
    BUILT-IN WIFI AND HDMI
    The controller’s computer powers both a WiFi hub to keep you constantly connected and a built-in HDMI port for live broadcast of your GoPro HD video feed. Now you can send live streaming HD video out to just about any screen you can imagine, all without losing or compromising the live HD feed on your mobile device.

    SAFETY FIRST
    In case you ever need it, a dedicated Pause button immediately brings Solo to a midair halt-and-hover so you can regain your bearings. The onscreen color display tells you exactly what’s going on during flight and the controller will instantly alert you if something goes wrong. The controller also doubles as Solo’s “black box”: Its 1 GHz computer automatically saves valuable flight data along 500 parameters directly to its internal memory, 20 times a second.
    TURN MOMENTS INTO MOVIES.

    The Solo Gimbal taps Solo’s intelligence to get perfect shots automatically, plus rock-solid footage, GoPro® control & charging and long-range HD video feed.
    STABILITY
    Our 3-axis gimbal ensures solid GoPro performance. Capture smooth and fluid HD footage every flight, stabilized to within 0.1 degrees of pointing accuracy.

    ACCESS
    We worked directly with GoPro so that the Solo Gimbal would be the first in the world with in-flight access to GoPro controls. Now you can start and stop recording while you fly so you can pick and choose the shots you want. This reduces unwanted footage for a “fat-free” editing experience, and the smaller file size lets you save these short clips directly to your phone for easy storing and sharing. The Solo Gimbal even powers your GoPro so the battery won’t die midflight.

    INTELLIGENCE
    The Solo Gimbal is designed to work intelligently with the GoPro and Solo’s controller. The combination gives you fine-grain camera tilt control, including angle presets and instant speed adjustment—or just hit ‘play’ on the mobile app and let Solo’s Smart Shots fully control the gimbal for an automatic perfect shot.
     
    A new, powerful app makes everything simple and easy.

    The Solo Gimbal works with Solo’s onboard computer to automatically execute precise and sophisticated Smart Shots, taking your aerial photography to the next level.

    CABLECAM
    Automatically move and pan between two set frames—just press 'play’ and let Solo get the perfect shot.

    ORBIT
    Lock your GoPro on an object for an iconic wraparound shot.

    FOLLOW
    Keep the camera on you as you move.

    SELFIE
    As the scenery expands, the 3-axis gimbal keeps you center stage.
    IT THINKS OF EVERYTHING.
    REFINED COPTER AND CAMERA CONTROL
    The 3DR Solo app provides a user experience never before seen in a drone. A simple and streamlined mobile interface for aerial photography.

    SHOOTER’S TOUCH
    We’ve fully integrated the Solo app into both copter and camera for a seamless shooting experience.
    • Live HD feed from your GoPro®
    • One-touch control of all of Solo’s Smart Shots
    • Access to GoPro controls during flight, including start and stop recording
    CUSTOM CONTROL
    Change Solo’s speed and agility, set Solo’s maximum altitude and assign controller button presets.
     
    MULTIPLE VIEWING OPTIONS
    Choose between the live camera view from your GoPro or an overhead satellite map view.

    Simply swipe to pull out the split-screen satellite view. Pinpoint geographic location, or dial in your shot and Smart Shot flight paths with your fingertip while simultaneously monitoring your live feed.

    AUTO UPDATES
    The Solo app also handles all the updates for the drone, controller and gimbal—no wires, cards or any other processes or accessories needed. The app also alerts you if Solo detects any problems, letting you submit a service ticket to customer support immediately, even while you’re still in the field.

    RECORD STRAIGHT TO MOBILE
    With your shots recorded to your camera roll, you have full freedom to instantly share them on social, review them with others in the field without having to land, or drop them directly into any other apps.
    SHOOT LIKE A PRO WITH THE PUSH OF A BUTTON.

    Solo’s intelligence unlocks powerful and one-of-a-kind computer-assisted Smart Shots. Just set up the exact shot you want, then tap “play” and Solo will execute it with a level of precision and a soft touch that even seasoned cinema pilots can’t match.
     
     
    With Solo locked on a virtual cable in the air, you’re free to pan and tilt the camera without worrying about piloting the copter. Solo can even memorize the shot at each end point and fly itself from one frame to the next, while working the camera for you as smoothly and evenly as a seasoned pro.

    It’s this easy: Just use the live view on your mobile screen to guide Solo to your desired start and end points. Once those are set, Solo is automatically locked to the virtual cable between them. Now you can focus exclusively on capturing the exact shots you want as Solo moves up and down the tracks—or just push “play” and let Solo handle the camerawork. And really: Even professional pilots can’t get these kinds of shots.
     
     
    Get an iconic wraparound shot by locking your GoPro® onto any object with the push of a button. Orbit mode puts Solo on a circular track with an adjustable radius. Fly around the circle in either direction and Solo will keep the camera locked on your subject. You can also adjust altitude and flight speed to create dynamic and sophisticated aerial shots.

    It’s this easy: Once Solo is in the air, point the camera at the object you want to film. Press the assigned “Orbit” button and the camera stays fixed on the object. The copter is now locked into a circle around the object. Now control the speed and direction of Solo’s orbit and capture perfectly smooth wraparound shots with no uneven or jerky movements—or tap “play” and Solo will do it all.
     
     
    Automatically put yourself in the middle of a scenic aerial pullout shot. As Solo flies itself up and back, your surroundings expand, building and revealing more and more of the world around you—it’s a portrait and a landscape all at once. Record the clip directly to your phone for easy saving and sharing.

    It’s this easy: Put Solo on the ground in front of you with the camera facing you. Tap Selfie, press Fly and Solo will take off with the camera pointed at you, then fly back and up. When Solo reaches the peak of its flight, it will return to land right where it took off, getting an aerial zoom shot on the way back down. Now immediately save and share this unique selfie with others.
     
     
    Go completely hands-free. Whether you’re taking the road less traveled with your friends, cruising your boat around the lake or just out exploring the world, Solo will automatically follow along in the air. This mode keeps the camera centered on you at all times, capturing your every move.

    It’s this easy: Launch Solo and choose Follow. Now Solo is locked onto your mobile device—which must remain with your controller—and you’re ready to film all the action. And since flight and camera control are fully automated, you’re completely hands-free to focus on the activities you love as Solo captures it all.
     
    EVERY ASPECT OF SOLO IS DESIGNED
    TO BE FUTURE-PROOF
    SOLO EVOLVES

    We incorporated technology into Solo that ensures you won’t have to replace the platform in six months—instead your Solo will grow and adapt. And because we have the strongest drone developer community in the world, Solo will be advancing rapidly. In other words the Solo you buy now isn’t just a one-off product, the first in an ever-expanding series of integers—it’s a platform whose value will increase. Wherever technology takes us in the future, Solo will be ready to go.
    ACCESSORY BAY
    A built-in port designed for carrying accessories other than gimbals or imaging devices. Currently in development are products as simple as new LED lights for your Solo legs, and as complex as ballistic parachute systems for safely flying over crowds and optical flow for extremely precise indoor flight.

    WIRELESS UPDATES
    Thanks to the foundation of the dual 1GHz computers, a simple mobile app update includes updates for Solo’s computer, the controller’s computer, the autopilot system and even the Solo gimbal—all delivered wirelessly with on-screen feedback so you can see exactly what’s happening along the way. Gone are the days of using USB cables to update your drone.

    SWAPPABLE MOTOR PODS
    Quickly change motors in the field, and easily integrate upgraded power systems for Solo down the road.

    “MADE FOR SOLO”
    Solo isn’t only receptive to future 3DR technology add-ons: We’ve also established the “Made for Solo” incubator program, which leverages our open core platform and encourages the creation and incorporation of new Solo accessories from businesses and other third-party developers and partners around the world. After all, one of the most exciting things about Solo is that we’re still not sure where this technology will lead—we just know it will be above and beyond the expected.
