As some of you know, my husband and I love playing with new tech. While some tech has always seemed a bit out of our reach, it’s great to dream and think of the cool things you could do with the things you read about in the news, or online. One thing that has been getting a lot of attention lately are drones. You know, the plane-like units that can fly around from home and get high quality video? I mean, some people are even using them to get in places not easily accessible to humans or at angles that’s impossible for us to take on the ground. For most of us, the thought of playing with a drone seemed way out of our price range – until now! This week, Best Buy announced they will be selling a small drone for home use – the 3DR Solo Drone!
For those who want to capture that perfect shot, we think you will be thrilled with this innovative drone. What makes the 3DR Solo Drone so unique and intelligent is its two integrated Linux computers. These two computers not only help you better control the drone itself, but the camera attached to the drone, helping you get the perfect shot every time. As well, this drone is the first to support full control of GoPro cameras, and delivers live HD quality video through your preferred mobile device or through the controller’s HDMI port if you wish to broadcast your video feed. Really, the 3DR Solo Drone is perfect for every photographer – or tech geek – who wishes to see the world in a new, different way through technology.
Want to purchase this awesome drone for someone in your family, or your Dad for Father’s Day? You buy the 3DR Solo Drone at Best Buy for only $999. As well, anyone who buys the 3DR Solo Drone between 6/7 – 7/11 will also get a Solo Smart Battery ($149.99 value). This free battery is only valid with the 3DR Solo Drone (SKU: 5351035). To learn more, head to Best Buy to talk to one of their awesome sales floor associates or check out the 3DR Solo Drone page on BestBuy.com. Make Best Buy your one-stop destination for drones this Father’s Day!

3DR Solo Drone so unique and intelligent is its two integrated Linux computers.
These are so awesome! so complex it has two computers.Dad and the kids would love it. Not like dad would let them touch it! This is so cool and can even take pictures. My oldest so age 27 would love this!Think I”ll wait until the price come down a little more. Thank you. Very interesting review.
That’s really cool. I’ve never seen this before. It would make a great gift idea.
My brother has a drone, and it is pretty cool, capturing video and images from up high. Neat gift too!
these are really neat love how they capture everything my boys are wanting one of these drones s they can take them when we go on vacations and take amazing pictures
The 3DR Solo Drone looks like a great device for photographers to use to get the “perfect shot”. I’m not sure it would be any use to the average Joe. Thank you for sharing this review.
I think that these are really nice for fellow photographers like myself. The camera connection and flying is so versatile. I recommend this to every photographer.
just think, if i had one these i could spy on my gurlfriend, that i dont even like….but she loves me
It be great to have one of these drones. sound like you can take some pictures that u couldnt with a reg cam
I really think that using them to get in places not easily accessible to humans or at angles that’s impossible for us to take on the ground is awesome.
I think this is the coolest tech product I have seen in awhile. I really love that the 3DR Solo Drone supports GoPro cameras, and delivers live HD quality video through your preferred mobile device or through the controller’s HDMI port. So many uses for this! 🙂
