Drones are all the rage right now. You can’t read the paper or watch the news without someone talking about the ever increasing use of drones. For personal use, you can film your kids outdoor games and get the best shots that all the parents will be jealous of! You can also create stunning views of your adventure trip, whether that’s to the lake, the park or to the mountains. You will be able to capture memories never thought possible.
The new 3DR Solo Drone is the first-ever drone powered by two integrated Linux computers, making capturing the perfect shot easy for anyone and Best Buy is the destination that has them!
Solo is a smart drone that’s designed for easy flying, and built to capture stunning video and photography with your GoPro camera (sold separately). With features like push-button flight, Solo makes it simple for anyone to get off the ground quickly. And with computer-assisted Smart Shots and the GoPro frame, you’ll be able to capture professional-style aerial photos and video in Full HD quality.
Solo can define its own flight, freeing users to focus on getting the shot. This intelligent drone is also the first to support full control of GoPro cameras and deliver live HD video either wirelessly to your mobile device or through the controller’s HDMI port for live broadcasts.
In Smart Shot modes, Solo can fly itself so you can shift your focus from flying the drone to the camera. There are 4 different modes:
- Cablecam: Lock Solo onto a virtual cable between any two points in space. Then, using just one stick on the controller, you can move Solo up and down the cable. This lets you freely pan and tilt the camera while the drone stays in steady flight. Solo can even memorize your first and last frames and pan the camera between them.
- Orbit: Solo can automatically circle a subject of your choosing, keeping the camera pointed inward to capture an iconic wraparound shot. Adjust the circle’s radius to get the exact frame you want, even mid-flight.
- Selfie: With just one touch, Solo will fly up and away, keeping the camera centered on you so the scenery around you expands in a dramatic aerial pullout shot.
- Follow Me: Go completely hands-free. Solo can follow where you go, automatically keeping the camera on you to capture your every move.
