    Karma Drone range extender

    There are a bunch of reviews of this on here and it went under a different name I think, for about a $100. All it is are two bigger, therefore more gain) patch WiFi antennas to replace the little patch antennas in the controller. No soldering required. You open case, unplug existing patch...

    HELP!! Karma loses connection every time immediately after launch!

    Different problem. Sounds like it is going into forced auto land which could be a setting related to height or a sensor/internal control signal malfunction. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    HELP!! Karma loses connection every time immediately after launch!

    I get slammed every time I open my pen but the complaints about fly offs were coming here way before the last update. Nobody can be flying since before last update as GPS could not lock in without it. GPS is easy to loose but Karma is slow in locking in and quick in dropping. I fly a dual band...

    How do I know I have the new updated Karma and not the old recalled one?

    The original Karmas were recalled and exchanged. Very few were not turned in. There is no visible way to tell difference between old new versions, there is a video on YouTube showing that. I believe a slight latch modification held the battery in tighter is all that changed. In any case hard to...

    Pairing problems

    Be nice to have your facts straight. GoPro discontinued Karma in January 2018 and exited the drone business following a number of stumbles with the product, including a recall just weeks after its initial launch. The company promised it would continue to support the drone after its...

    Pairing problems

    In what world can one reasonably expect a company to continue support of a product they discontinued several years ago. It’s not like an automobile, it is in the end just a “toy”. No I do not work for GoPro and yes I have been though this and I was lucky enough to get replacement Karma body...

    New Karma

    Good luck, but it will not fly without last update as it will not be able to lock GPS. Let take what it wants when it wants it off internet as you really have no choice. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk

    Sunset with mix of video and timelapse

    Many people have said it before, fly within the realistic limits of a WiFi based system and you will be fine. The Karma is a great picture taking aid. If you want to post up how high and far away you can fly, which is illegal in most places now, buy something else. Sent from my iPad using...

    HELP WITH THE GPS

    I provided a decent recommendation previously above and the answer is that they want a fix right now , a hack, turn off the GPS. At some point a basic level of understanding is required, a little effort required. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
