    CAMERA NO FOUND - Karma problem

    It looks like most of the connection are fine between the drone and controller, you can try to open the harness pulling out and reinstall the camera when the connection is on, sometimes you need to do it again and again. I also have the connection problem but it is " karma is not found", after...

    CAMERA NO FOUND - Karma problem

    It is most of the time the connecting problem between harness and the camera: 1. during the start-up ( both controller and drone powered on), try removing the camera from the harness and put it back again and keep doing it ( feel the connecting firmed) until it connected ( you hear a di di di...

    How many Karma's are still flying?

    Hi, Both Hero5 and Hero7 are equipped with the 12MP camera, but Hero7 is more advanced and improved. The setting in the camera is important for the result of a image, I always select the raw and native color setting for the maximum opportunity in the post with Lightroom and Photoshop. Here are...

    Pairing problems

    How many Karma's are still flying?

    I am still busy with my 2 Karma, I use them mainly for the aerial photography, the photo quality of Hero 7 is amazing.

    Controller update?

    I suggest that to register an account to Gopro after service like the guy of the YouTube "fix it, here is how", but you should spend some money for this, Gopro is the original manufacturer, for sure they will solve any problem of their product but according to their warranty policy.

    Compass not calibrating.

    Hi, How about the blue dots on the controller's screen, are they connected one by one without spaces in between, where are you doing the calibration, did you try the spots in the rural area or just in the near urban surroundings, I think it is not the machine itself, the magnetic (WIFI,power...

    Karma calibration works in horizontal position, vertical calibration fails, any advice?

    Have you tried another locations? Karma is very sensitive to the magnetic interference, normally it will be fine when you move to the different spots. I use a rotating plate to do the calibration, it becomes easy and more stable, the whole calibration ended within one minute, by the way ,when...

    Pairing problems

    I think nobody can take responsible for the product that already belongs to you including the manufacturer, I have 2 karma since 2019 for my aerial photography and consistently follow the pre-flight procedure and keep the firmware updated, and not push the envelope during the flight, keep...
