I have a Mavic, love that I can fold it up and put it in my Solo bag.
My Solo will be around forever (open source with some amazing mods / upgrades coming soon)
This is still a steal of a price for a great drone.
Tons of support from the Solo community (forums and Facebook groups)

Agreed on all counts. It just makes it harder to justify the $300 spend when perhaps I could put it towards the mavic. I also don't own a gopro...so that's more $. If I owned a GoPro , I'd jump on this.

Same here...needing a GoPro doubles the price and then you're in Phantom 3 Professional territory.

Nope...the software and physical plugs from drone to gimbal are specifically for Gopro Hero 3+Black and Hero 4. Unfortunately, other cameras won't work with the software which sucks because I have a Yi 4k I'd love to use with one. If that'd work, this would be an easy sell.

Yep, correct...only a couple of GoPros work with this...which sucks!

The problem is that those are WAY cheaper than this, so it's quite a gap. The best middle ground I think is the P3 Std. when on sale for around $300.
