About me...
62
Application Engineer
So after alot of research, and weighing the pros & cons, I purchased my Karma last night.
First impressions....got it setup and updated without incident. Played with the simulator for a while. Pretty basic, but valuable for someone who has never flown anything. I flew rc helis when they first came to market (Cricket,early '80s), so having the luxury of gps will be great.
I already had a Hero5 Black, so the 599 price was a deciding factor. Also, the ability for me to replace parts on my own was a plus. Yes, all the bells and whistles of DJI stuff is appealing, but at a high cost.
I did have a chat with a support person from Gopro, and asked a few questions about parts availability, and software updates. Lets see what happens.
I'll have to wait for my first flight...pretty cold here this am, and going to snow a bunch later today.
