it's a battery!

Verified Purchase:Yes
Wish it had a bit more capacity, but by any measure, it's a battery. It works on the solo as intended. Problem really is the charger, which is somewhat slow for these batteries.

3D Robotics Solo Drone: Using the Solo's smart flying features, you don't have to be on the sidelines to capture memories — you can be a part of them, too. Choose from a variety of autopilot modes, from premapped flight paths, to orbit, lock-on-and-follow, and more. Now you can worry less about keeping the drone in the air, and focus on taking amazing footage to share with your friends and family.Fly Responsibly:The FAA requires operators of unmanned aircraft weighing more than 0.55 pounds (250 grams) on takeoff (including everything on board or attached), and operating outdoors, be registered at www.faa.gov/uas/registration. If you are under age 13, you must have a parent or someone age 13 or older register for you. Additional state or local requirements may apply. Check your local jurisdiction. The following websites may help you make informed decisions about how regulations impact you: www.knowbeforeyoufly.org and www.modelaircraft.org. Some manufacturers recommend minimum age requirements for operating certain models of unmanned aircrafts. See the Specifications tab on this page for the Recommended Minimum Age for this product.

keeps getting better
on July 29, 2015

Verified Purchase:Yes
This is a 5 star product at this point, if the gimbal was available. Without the gimbal it is pretty useless (other than a great toy for flying around). Initially it had some bugs that were rectified through a software update, and current indication is that a future update will address the remaining hickups. It flys great. DJI is catching up though, but if you want upgradability and potentially a way to hack and expand your drone, this is likely the best you can buy at this point.

Works well but it's not V2
on March 1, 2015
Posted by: AlexLA
Verified Purchase:Yes
You would think that when you order this unite today, you would get the V2 version which has been on sale for quite some time, but you would be mistaken. While the switch works great (for the money), it is not the latest version. If you are OK with getting V1, then this is a great buy. I use this with LAG to get extra speed on Synology, OSX, and WIN machines

Bring your photography to a new level with the Sony Alpha a6300 mirrorless camera kit. With a 16-50mm lens along with the A6300 body, this kit gives you sharp photos whether you are shooting landscapes or portraits. The 4K video, ISO of up to 51,200 and 350-shot battery life ensures this Sony Alpha A6300 mirrorless camera delivers great images..
 

What is "rolling shutter" and is this a problem with the 4K video of this camera?

I suggest you check youtube for examples on rolling shutter, but to answer your question: this camera has VERY NOTICEABLE and very bad rolling shutter in 4K, far more so that other cameras capable of recording 4k internally, or externally.

Boost your computer's performance with this 480GB SanDisk Ultra II internal solid state drive, which features nCache technology and a SATA III interface. The enhanced battery life and shock resistance provide efficiency and durability.
 

Is this compatible with on a 2010 Macbook Pro 15?

I have a 2010 Macbook Pro 15 running Yosemite. I would like to replace the existing drive with this. Will it fit in the bay? Thanks for any advice.
Yes, the 2010 model uses standard 3.5inch drives, so you can simply replace the existing HD with this SSD. If you upgrade to El Capitan, you can also use the TRIM functionality provided by this SSD (recommended!!)

can I run wireless router without going through a computer

wireless routers are standalone. They don't need computers. If you talk about configuring one without a computer (as in setting up), you need to get one that offers a mobile client for smartphones/tablets (assuming you have one of these at hand). Most current Netgear and Asus models offer this functionality.

what size / type of router do i need for a 2800 square foot house 2 floors

want to buy router to work in our 2800 square foot home upstairs and down stairs
Depends on where you place the router, but newer AC-type models work well. I think the ASUS AC1900 is a great buy, and should probably work well (needs AC-capable devices for best performance).

Verizon told me that in order for me to get better reception in my home, I needed to purchase a network extender with a CDMA technology.

can you recommend one and it must have at least 1.3 megabits per second
The Network extender uses your OWN INTERNET CONNECTION at home, so the speed is largely dependent on your internet connection. You can get the appropriate extender from Verizon (or use a third party extender which basically adds an antenna outside your home and uses the cell-towers). That might get you the speed you want, but also means that you still must have a strong tower/signal outside of your home that is capable of delivering you 1.3mbits (which over 3G might be a problem on CDMA).
