Hey gang been sitting on the drone sidelines for years.
Finally decided to grab a Karma on eBay. Thought it made sense for me:
  • Wanted to get a good GoPro (Hero7) for mtn biking, snow boarding, skiing, hiking, water sports.
  • Karma has a bad rap and lots of them available for low prices. Mixed reviews but some are very good.
  • Wasn't sure how much I'd use the drone. I expect often not practical but there are times I'd like to fly and video w/it.
  • I don't want to buy a Chinese drone, no matter how good they are.
So there ya go!

Picked it up off eBay in really great condition. A little dusty but near perfect physical condition. Updated firmware, and completed three test flights over the weekend.

I flew R/C planes when I was a kid and young-ish adult. This is different but far easier. Hope to get good enough to take some excellent perspectives by flying it myself vs using the programmed flight paths (although they seem to work well).

I'm really happy with it thus far! Had one issue where I'd like to get some fdbk and will start a separate post for that.
 
G'day!

Have fun!
It is a great camera platform.
