aaricwon,
Great app but GoPro problems
The app is great! My issue is I can’t control my GoPro with it. I have the GoPro Hero 4 Black. The red circle is in the screen but does nothing. I have video feed and at the top of the screen i would be able to see time moving if it was recording but I can’t get it to start recording via the app. Can someone help?

Terrible.
Used with 3DR Solo drone. DOES NOT work properly. Has caused my drone to crash twice when trying to land and destroy its propellers.
I’ll preface this with saying that I never had ANY issues like this with the stock 3DR app before 3DR disappeared from the App Store…no crashes or any other bugs like below.
I updated all necessary firmware; the app will allow drone to fly but has several issues.
- When trying to land, the drone will get squirrely and randomly throttle up even though I’m holding the throttle all the way down as required when landing - it will have quick spurts of full throttle then stop, then full throttle again (all while throttle is held down at 0%). It tends to catch two side legs on the ground, then flip over and destroys the props, and will not shut off no matter what you do with the throttle or any buttons. I had to hold the drone in my hand with the throttle held down, but it continued to throttle itself up until the battery finally died.
- Will not trigger the GoPro to begin recording.
- Will not allow parameter changes to be synced to drone.
- With full, healthy battery the app says that the battery is critically low within 1 minute of flight time and wants to return “home”.
This app is terrible. Don’t use it.

WEKIV,
Excellent with 3drSolo running OpenSolo on iphone 7+
I have Side Pilot on my iOS devices and Solex on my Androids. I find SidePilot to be a bit easier to navigate. It also gives early warnings on Batteries starting to lose efficiency. One wish is that Side Pilot would allow me to change the Lighting configs on the drone the way I can in Solex.
The SP manual says Green Cube needed, but I can do it in Solex without a GC, so why not in Side Pilot?
Regarding the A/B buttons; not only can they be configured, you can customize ALL of the buttons on the controller. Its all in the manual.

Can’t connect to Solo Controller
What I get on iPhone when after connecting to the solo controller using WiFi, is a alert on WiFi connection iPhone “No internet connection” so I can’t get sidepilot to locate the solo controller thus no way to load the open source firmware into the controller or solo. Any one find a solution for this one?
I have a 2nd solo system but it is stuck on Preflight Update, forgot the password and had to reset the controller
Any help appreciated so I can raise the level of stars in review,.

Too many issues
2.0 currently has too many bugs. From parameters not loading from vehicle to calibrations not functioning. Used to be a pretty good app prior to this new version. Will update my review when things are fixed.
mike mikos,
Much better than original 3dr app
Resurrected my dormant SOLO.. Works great and s very intuitive. Have not tried all the camera function yet but the utilities and update features appreciated the most. Well done Tom
Anonymous GL,
Excited to see developer starting again. Please keep doing up dates!

Back to Life
Yes, This application brought my orbital 3DR Solo back to life after a factory reset. I’m now flying mission with OpenSolo 4.0 software. If you have an 3DR solo you will want to follow the OpenSolo project. It not only keeps you flying but add new options. This is totally worth the money.
WhoDatAficionado,
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.

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.
