    Signal loss from Karma controller to Karma Drone

    I agree and I’ve told this much over and over. I’m going to call and talk to them again after I go fly it and record new flight logs at another location. Just aggravating them not listening to me.

    I’ve followed their suggestion, and sent flight logs at each location, all of which are outside the restricted and no fly zones. It baffles me they took a strong stance and said it was the location.

    Thanks for the response. The last to communications with GoPro support they are persistent that it’s no fault with the Karma Controller or the Drone. It’s beyond me. I know they are differ t systems with different parts, but my Dad has the Phantom 4, he flys everywhere I do with no issues.

    None. I chose a location clear of any WiFi signals or other electrical interference. Google Maps Not sure if that will work, I copied it off apple maps. 29.721524, -83.486439 location on Google maps.

    Yes to all of the above, and when the drone lifts off and while attempting to check for flight controls is when the problem happens.

    Signal loss from Karma controller to Karma Drone

    I contacted support again after attempting to fly. I moved to a location free of any power lines , and well clear of any airports or restrictions . I calibrated the drone and lifted off. As soon as the drone lifts off I rise to about 15 to 20 feet. As soon as I try to move forward the Karma...

    Thank you for responding. So you believe that this is what's happening? I'm able to start the Karma, fly for various time frames at different altitudes and the drone inconsistently realizes I'm in a restricted zone and returns to the take off location? I really hope this is it. I do live within...

    Signal loss from Karma controller to Karma Drone

    I’ve had my karma for several months now, and flew it about 20 times. Each time I’ve been in a restricted area, which is within 5 miles of a small airport. Each time Karma ask if I have permission, and I checked the box that says I do, which I never obtain permission. However, I flown the karma...
