Recent update broke the app. Cannot see video feed anymore and there is no option to close the app from inside the app. Do not buy.

I had a question (that was answered on the website) but Kelly was very quick to respond on a weekend night with excellent guidance. The supporting web page, Solex mobile and Solex desktop app are all actively being developed. Not sure why there are comments treating this like it's unsupported or obsolete - it's not. Also works for more than just the 3DR Solo! Thanks again Kelly and great work!
