VERY IMOPORTANT ... don't update with new 2.5 software so expert mode can work.

I got my done out for the first time before all this mess started and did not know about the GPS problem. I forced it into the air without GPS. I had no control over the drone. It crashed into a tree and got stuck. Fortunately I got it out but broke 3 propellers. I only had two replacements...then I watched the videos about the problem. Waiting on Amazon to deliver props. I did the updates and hope it works. Thanks for the help. Bottom line, don’t fly without GPS.

Yeah it's a world wide problem, not just you. To be safe store your Karma away and wait for the update, hopefully not too much longer. In the mean time if you have other drones use them.

its been a while since you posted this but I had this problem while I was hunting I lugged it around for 3 days and pulled it out multiple times and I couldn't even enter expert mode because of this gps issue, I had it running perfectly the day before I went away as well.

@MikesManCave 2 жыл бұрын

Seems strange the gps issue was long ago and was fixed long ago. There should not be any gps issues. Was flying my karma yesterday without any issues.

@cemdemir3519 4 жыл бұрын

I have been facing this issue since I bought it. Even before this GPS problem I was continuously having the interference problem. In two years I could fly it maximum four times. Failed maybe 20 times. Guess what! Nothing changed after the update. I am really sick of it.

@MikesManCave 4 жыл бұрын

Where are you flying the drone?? Mine has never had a problem but I very rarely fly in the city or areas with interference.

I think you to pin a post that the Karma wasn't flying because the GPS system updated this year and therefore the Karma also had to be updated. This is fixed with the new update and my Karma flies perfect now

Flew mine two days after Christmas at a friends house and it was fine. GoPro is working on a fix apparently, so I am just waiting patiently till it is sorted out. This gives people an option, but I am not flying mine till there is a fix for gopro.

Flew mine yesterday. The camera failed after after takeoff and drone tried to go straight up on its own. I had the stick all the way down and the drone just hovered 15m above in tug of war. After about 5 minutes I touched the camera on the screen and managed to land it. Used hero 7 here. Just can’t get it to work

@MikesManCave 2 жыл бұрын

Drone is made for hero 5 not hero 7 just because it fits in the harness does not mean that it’s meant to be in there. The hero 7 was made years after the drone was made. I have made videos about this and they are on KZfaq. I have always used a hero 5 black and never had a problem other than one time I used a 7 and it flew away and did it’s own thing.

Yeah, that’s what I’m doing. I usually fly times a day weather permitting, so I’m really getting anxious lol. I love the drone, I haven’t had any fall out the sky issues. That’s the thing I’m terrified about. Being that they are now discontinued, I wonder what future tech support will be available. It can’t just fall off the map so fast

@MikesManCave 4 жыл бұрын

They have had a lot of issues. But I still love the damn thing. It’s my favourite drone. I am however on the look out for a good deal on a second hand DJI Phantom 4 for a reliable alternative. Can’t for the life of me justify the price of a new one.

@MikesManCave 4 жыл бұрын

Yes a friend has one his missus bought it for Christmas before they sold out. She travelled 500km return to buy it as well. Amazing little drone but too small for my needs. If I was rolling in cash I would be buying the Mavic mini and phantom 4 pro. Unfortunately my funds are limited. So a good deal on a second hand Phantom 4 is the best plan at this stage. Scouring buy swap n sell daily for a bargain.
