    Todays test 10-01-17 after 2.0 updates

    Edit: I get your question now. I didn’t say anything about the Karma’s performance. I was just responding to a previous post. I was talking about the technique of *following* for practical use with waterskiers. I’ll leave my original answer below: I understand because I’ve flown drones for...

    Todays test 10-01-17 after 2.0 updates

    Actually, that works pretty well for water skiing. I've not flown a Karma, but I've filmed water skiers and innertubers with a variety of drones over the years. The best footage usually is when you follow the boat as opposed to the water skier. Just set up the framing right and you'll be happier...

    Cable Cam question

    Well that's awesome. If it does the same smooth logarithmic easing that the Solo did, then I hope people around here realize how super great the feature is. I've managed to get similar results on DJI gear using a third party app called Litchi, but its a bit of a pain to set up and the results...

    Cable Cam question

    So just to confirm, that's a "yes" on yaw and gimbal tilt being controlled automatically by the drone if you want? Or does it just fly from point to point?

    Karma Crashed Itself

    Interesting. Perhaps a bad barometer. Maybe it caught a stray bit of GPS signal and switched itself out of manual. Or a low battery failsafe. I don't know enough about Karma, but whatever it was, I'm never a fan when any drone takes full control away. It's one thing if out of range and it...

    Karma Crashed Itself

    Isn't it a bad idea to land under a bridge? Electomagnetic interference if it's a steel bridge. Also, GPS blocked. I dont have a Karma. I'm thinking about getting one so I'm not trying to give you a hard time. I'm genuinely curious how reliable it is. You know where you were better than I, so...

    Todays test 10-01-17 after 2.0 updates

    Thank you for posting this. Do you have any examples of multi-point Cable Cam? Specifically one where you set each point with the Karma pointed in different directions with different tilt on the gimbal. I'm just curious if the Karma will tilt the gimbal and yaw the copter around between...

    Cable Cam question

    Is anyone here familiar with Cable Cam on the 3DR Solo? How similar is Cable Cam on the Karma? Specifically, can you have it yaw the copter and tilt the gimbal for you with smooth transitions between each point? Admittedly I may not have searched hard enough, but so far I've only found...

    GoPro Karma Release Today!

    So the Karna looks very cool. Looking forward to it. Having said that, I see 3 issues. I hesitate to even post this because i don't want to focus on the negative. 20 minute battery life. History tells us this equals 12 to 15 minutes in the real world. However the specs also show these...
