My husband has been wanting a drone for a long time. Since he loves using his GoPro to take great video and pictures, he has been obsessing over wanting to put his camera in the air and see the world from above. He has researched many of the options out there to see which are the best, and he has spent much time looking at videos and pictures shot from an aerial perspective.
Lucky for him, Best Buy is the destination for drones, including the new Solo™ by 3DR. Solo™ is a smart drone that arrived in over 400 Best Buy stores on June 8, just in time for Father’s Day. This drone is powered by two integrated Linux computers, one in the drone and the other in the controller. Basically, this smart drone flies easily and allows you to control your shots, making your video so much better.
The Solo™ also gives you full control of your GoPro® camera and delivers live HD video either wirelessly to your mobile device or through the controller’s HDMI port. This lets you see and compose your shots in real time as well as flip between the settings on your camera while in flight.
The Solo™ is a really fun gadget for Dads who are looking for a different perspective on the world. I know my husband would love to get one of these for Father’s Day. He loves how easy it is to fly this one and how nice it looks, compared to many of the others that are out on the market.
Right now you can get a FREE Solo Smart Battery (Reg. Price: $149.99) when you purchase the 3DR Solo Drone (Sku: 5354101). Valid 6/7-7/11 at Best Buy.*
With all the buzz around aerial photography, this is definitely going to be a big year for drones, so be sure to check out the Solo at Best Buy.
