So you're saying it's possible to take great photos without GPS ? Keeping a drone in place whilst composing a photo ? Even our Top Gun Tom would struggle with that one....

Yes, seems like Polar Pro is the way to go ! Thank you !

Don't give up, it seems to be their default response.... keep trying & you could get a better result. Persistence is the key to their awful support....

Does anyone know where I can get a good quality polarized filter for my Hero 5 ? Its to use with the karma drone flights.... Can you recommend good ND filters also ? Thank you.

No, you can't close it but I've seen some kid on YouTube stick in a thin looking backpack, open, and do that.... however what happens if the joysticks get nudged in the backpack... I've seen people with the controller in the car & have the drone follow. Worked fine ! Get creative but don't close...

Yep, downloaded & updated... However, you go first...... No, seriously, I'm on crutches & cant get out so I won't be in the driving seat for a while. Waiting to see how others fair with the updated firmware....

Bad news is, with this launch tomorrow there's going to be another update for the karma drone..... Let's see.....

If you're going to spend more money I'd switch to DJI, this kind of incident with the Karma drone is becoming all to common.... This forum is full of fly away Karmas.... I'd still persist with trying to get a replacement though, you never know...

Wow, I read you story & cant believe it's still not resolved..... So sorry to hear that, Its a miracle mine survived.Had it gone out over the water I'd be in exactly the same position as you. I never checked the video until yesterday as I never had the chance to start recording before it shot...

It just said Lost GPS connection... Immediately it shot off to my left up the beach (at least it didn't go out to sea) I seemed to have some control but it felt like what ever I did it was added to its left direction.... In other words I couldn't stop its left movement & it was fast. It happened...

Well, it finally happened today.... Lost my GPS signal at the beach this morning almost immediately after takeoff & "Boom" off the karma went with me chasing after it. I couldn't stop it with the controller & watched helplessly as it disappeared into the trees... After much searching I finally...
