GoPro Karma Beginners Guide | Unboxing and Setup

[@WhiteStarShelties]

Thanks for posting this video. I've been thinking about getting a Karma and will be looking forward to your Karma videos.

[@lupe1459jr]

This guy really went the whole steps not like other video that they just open the case and says its ready to fly. Thanks great video.

[@weirdmark]

Oldie but a good goodie.

[@2spoons]

Great video..... very educational.... also a GoPro user

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Great video going to take these pointers when get mine in the mail

[@camdensipma4824]

nice video dude just wondering how far away from a hospital helicopter pad does it not want u to fly in that area

[@juergen05]

I went exactly the same route, had the grip first and purchased the flight kit. Absolutely the way to go. I upgraded from a Phantom 2 and I am really happy with Karma, as a drone and as a compliment to the GoPro platform. Have fun with it. GoPro will introduce a 360 camera. I guess they also will come up with a harness for the grip and drone. I am really looking forward to that. Jürgen

[@AirPhotography]

+Juergen Schroeder yes the 360 camera is going to be really interesting and I really hope they make it compatible with the karma :)

[@juergen05]

I applied for being one of their tester, but did not get any response so far :-) will have to be patient I guess.

[@AirPhotography]

+Juergen Schroeder me too fingers crossed. Let me know if you hear back from them :)

[@juergen05]

Air Photography I will let you know

[@AirPhotography]

+Juergen Schroeder Great thanks :)

[@nolanweber1815]

[@AntonioClaudioMichael]

Do you know if I can get a screen shield for the karma controller

[@HarshSharma-oh8pm]

[@Solvet862]

I have one. Flew it once. Have yet to post a video.

[@cathieoaks5916]

Im excited for your next flying videos! I hope you get to make one before I fly to Philippines hihi😁 but really great tutorial!! Btw do you have tutorials about pairing camera to phone? I figured it out but im still having trouble doing it, and also if you have editing tutorials? Thanks in advance!

[@hewesjockey]

Can you still use this drone where there's no wi fi or cell access? Thank you.

[@AirPhotography]

That is correct you don’t need Wi-Fi or cellular service

[@cile1983]

tell me which is better gopro karma dron + gopro 6 or dji mini mavic or dji mini 2 thanks in advance

[@AirPhotography]

Mini 2 👍

[@cile1983]

@@AirPhotography thanks

[@B16GYG]

nice video bro. can't wait to see the next footage when you're recording on it flight it . Are there alot of money tho

[@AirPhotography]

Yes they are not cheap. But I think for what you get its the best drone for the cost. There are more advanced drones on the market but you pay for that.

[@14Mew]

Shawn do you still have your karma?

[@AirPhotography]

Indeed, I do. I don’t fly much these days, but I don’t wanna get rid of it.

[@woodwoman9130]

Very nice thanks!

[@bassmoore2083]

Which drone do you prefer ? The karma or the spark ? Looks like you have used both a lot. I’m torn on which to get

[@AirPhotography]

That is a tough decision. I really enjoyed them both. I prefer the karma for the quality that I can get it. But the spark is so much smaller and more portable and less obtrusive when flying around people. I always keep the spark in my backpack it doesn’t take up much room. So if I had to choose only one I would have to go with the spark

[@bassmoore2083]

Air Photography do you find the karma video quality better ? I was leaning towards having a separate camera instead of taking away from my go pro . But getting all the accessories you get with the karma is awesome . Do you find not having the sensors worrisome unlike the spark ?

[@darrylisaacs6110]

Thanks Air Photography, great video. I have the Hero 5 Black and the Karma Grip so the Flight Kit looks very appealing to me. As a Canadian do you know where I can get the kit? Did you order directly from GoPro? Thanks again!

[@AirPhotography]

+Darryl Isaacs yes I had to order it directly from go pro. Sport Chek sells the karma here in Canada so you could check with them as well

[@darrylisaacs6110]

Air Photography I will check with Sport Check first, thank you.

[@darrylisaacs6110]

Thank you, I will order directly from GOPro.

[@Noi5e1989]

Nice Video as always. Keep up the great work. Greetings from Germany.

[@AirPhotography]

+Cpt.Ooze thank you :)

[@thanhthai1711]

Which sd card are u using for the camera?

[@Parrothed5150]

Any new Karma videos coming?

[@AirPhotography]

+Chuck Ostrom yes I have some flight and video tips and editing tips coming soon

[@subhamofficial5687]

What is price in India

[@GunnyJeffers]

I flew RC aircraft for years but it was before the age of the mini camera. I'm uniquely unqualified about drones. You made a quality video here but I must digress. I just got my Karma a month ago and everything you posted here was exactly what I figured out on my own. 18 minutes to tell us what we would naturally learn by opening the case and looking at the content. You actually wasted the time of over 24,000 people. BTW, the silver tools you dismissed were specialized wrenches for the propellers. Hand tight is fine, but the wrench should be used to make them a little more snug. While it will fly fine at "hand tight", forward and reverse motions, if quickly executed, could cause a prop to loosen. (physics) I'll no more subscribe to your page as you would mine. Semper Fly. Gunny J. OUT!

[@jSkateUnit]

My battery seems to never fully charge

[@carlvincentsienes9360]

My karma crashed one month ago😢😢

[@vnrene]

EDIT - GOPRO HAD HELPED QUICKLY AND AWESOMELY - As reported by a large amount of users, the drone gives you a GPS error, what should give you the only option to land it safely. But this is not true!!! The drone simply accelerates in a straight line until disappears or hit something. In my case, even running in its direction I lost sight because it is very fast and last location gives no real clue where it did go. I piloted a lot of drones before to do some work and choose the GOPRO for being my own drone because of the camera (that could be used underwater and etc giving a good value for money) even knowing that other brands are better with drones. I made a very rational choice and spent a 2 year saving to have a drone that flew just 2 times (2nd being the one where it disappeared). I`m completely frustrated because I neither stepped more than 50 meters from it (diagonally to it) before receiving the error and loosing complete control. Only button I hit for all the time when running to it was the descend one, trying to land it (or at least crashing it in some tree before I loose it). As I received it by yesterday and fully charged its battery + updated all software I can tell it is not a system update missing nor calibration fault as I did it very smoothly before the 1st launch. Will open a case with support on monday and hope gopro takes the customers seriously because it is stupid discover in internet forums that it is a common behavior... I`d rather prefer to have the 2016 version, at least it drops from the sky and not gets lost from you.

[@AirPhotography]

+Rene Nieuwenhuizen Sorry to hear that you’ve had these problems, hopefully GoPro will be good to you. Just keep in mind that all drones have issues and flyaways even DJI. The DGI Facebook groups are full of people who use units have just fallen from the sky Or flew off. Drones are getting better and more reliable than they used to be.

[@vnrene]

thank you for prayers... As far I could read the Karma is a champion on fly-aways and because the same error again and again. If we compare the tons and tons of DJIs vs. the just-released Karma numbers I`m pretty sure the proportion between problems will indicate GOPRO has to re-think about it.

[@AirPhotography]

+Rene Nieuwenhuizen Please come back and report how you made out with GoPro and what their answer was I’m sure others would like to know as well

[@vnrene]

Bringing back THE BEST outcome possible : GOPRO checked the logs and told me: Do not fly around houses again (I live on a house condominium with a green area in front of my house from where I depart), but we will send you all replacements! This was today and I`ll update the post as soon it comes to me. THIS IS A GOAL for Gopro and a nice way to keep me as a customer!

[@AirPhotography]

+Rene Nieuwenhuizen great I am glad It had a positive outcome for you :)

[@timothywiley6334]

COOL

[@danieltoye9049]

I am actually buying one in 2021 because I already have a gopro hero 7.
