I received my new Karma with the Hero6 Black camera last Friday. Took it out Sunday for its maiden flight. As some background, I've been flying a Phantom 4 Pro about twice a week since April so some of my questions are influenced by my P4P experiences.
So, any advice you can provide on these questions is appreciated:
So, any advice you can provide on these questions is appreciated:
- It appears you can't access the drone via the controller unless it has GPS signals. I was hoping to power it on in my apartment so I can get used to the flight interface and change settings. Is there any way to do this without a GPS signal?
- I ran into a problem where the Record button wouldn't start the camera recording. Pressed it multiple times, pressed it and held it, etc. I had a 128GB SD card in the camera, with about 100GB available, and I had already recorded on the card successfully with the camera being handheld earlier. I landed and swapped out card for a 64GB card, tried recording with it, and it worked. Any reported problems with the Record button not working at times?
- After I put the new SD card in, the camera screen was all white. After finally getting the Camera Settings menu to appear, the minimum ISO was at 800, which was blowing out the sunny scene. It was at 100 originally, and I didn't change it. It appeared to change on its own. I changed it back successfully but has anyone had the camera settings get changed without doing it themselves?
- Where in the interface can you format the SD Card?
- The Karma seemed to auto-land a bit harder than I expected. It came down, slowed maybe a tiny bit, then thumped to the ground. Nothing broke, but I'm used to a softer landing with the P4P. Is this normal?
- It appears that the auto-landing kicked in when there was 3:00 of flight time remaining. It seems that if the Karma was out a bit from Home, this may not be enough time to auto-land safely. Is this based on remaining flight time or battery percentage?
- I noticed the camera has a color setting of "GoPro" and "Flat" - I used "GoPro" along with a polarizing filter and the colors seemed over-saturated a bit. Is the "GoPro" color setting already boosted?
