This is the PERFECT drone to buy if you're debating whether or not to seriously get into aerial filming, AND you already own a GoPro camera. Why? Because 3DR is selling off its entire stock of Solo quadcopters, because they've abandoned the consumer drone market, having been outflanked by the likes of DJI, Yuneec, and various other companies.

But their loss is your gain! This copter originally sold for $800, and at last look Amazon and Best Buy had some amazing discounts on this item. So.... If you already have a GoPro, GET A SOLO! And you'll need to ante up for the gimbal as well (also being heavily discounted). Click here to buy now.

If you've looked around, you've probably noticed a certain amount of negativity toward this product. They are not perfect, and customer support is not what it used to be once the company decided to change direction, but I have had chat sessions with support and they have been quite useful to me. But for the price, you cannot go wrong.

Other notes: When considering which mobile phone or small tablet to use with this copter (you'll need one) make sure you choose one from the compatibility list on the 3DR website. I have an HTC 10 mobile, and I was quite surprised to learn that my phone "is not supported" for use with this quadcopter, despite being a relatively new device. I ended up getting a refurbed Galaxy Tab Pro and that one IS compatible. Click here to buy now.

Be prepared to encounter a few glitches along the way when learning how to use this quadcopter. But consult customer support, go to YouTube for lots of really helpful info about how to make this quad work, and have a little patience and you will be fine. If you absolutely cannot deal with some problems you may encounter, Amazon gives you 30 days in which to return for a full refund. You can't go wrong! Click here to buy now.
