Great to hear from you Ironspear! I now have more room here which to fly my drones the two of them, no airports and city buildings. So I will take it step by step, and will publish my results as we progress. The Karma is still being produced in China and there is an outlet based here in...

Well it is nice to know that so many people have got their Karma drones back up and running. What I am looking for are the explicit instructions that GoPro posted to cure the problem? Has anyone kept and filed a copy? If you did I would be most grateful!

I am in process of getting myself geared up once more to fly my Karma drone again. After a couple of years of moving and getting settled down on the Eastern shore of Canada in Nova Scotia. To get the pairing system working again I am going to try pairing in three stages, first pairing the drone...

Sorry to hear that Promar 13. As I have always stressed get it to hover after take off to make sure it has a strong GPS signal.

G'Day All, I am back fron my visit to the Cook IsIands, and like everyone else ran into the GPS problem, and since my return have not had a chance to update the gear. I have though bought a BT Anemometer to measure the wind speed before you fly from Amazon. I will find it very useful I am sure...

Yes you are right to answer your own question. The GoPro 8 black is designed more for the active young who are Ski, Skateboard, and Surf enthusiast. For Karma my choice is still the GoPro 5 black. This time next week I will be on my way to Rarotonga in the the Cook Island. I will be back on line...

Hi Kisley, One thing you may invest in is the Karma Drone Handbook by Jordan Hetrick from Amazon. There is lot of good information set out in a logical sequence.

I have followed Jordan Hetrick's instructions as given in his Karma Drone handbook, power up the controller first, wait till it wants to pair, then start the drone. It goes through quite a lot sequences, so don't rush things.

Yes, pairing is a must. I have just updated my controller, then paired it to the drone and watched it as it updated everything. This was in preparation for my forthcoming trip to Rarotonga.

Quite right Kevin, here in Canada you are required by the latest June rules put out by Transport Canada that you maintain VLOS at all times. As for flying in any Precipitation is sheer madness!

By the way Ironspear in five weeks time I will be flying my drone over Rarotonga once more. This was a last years clip:

The Sticky label size is 4912 by 2760 pixels.

Great idea, keep us posted. Good also to see Ironspear on from Adelaide. Now for something for your log book:

GoPro 5. I have two Karma Drones, one is in case I need spare parts. Yes I have a GoPro 4, two GoPro 5's a GoPro 6 and a GoPro 7. Also I have two Karma Hand Grips which I use for mobile work on the car.

Now take a look at this:
