They are unloading the rest of there stock which I'm very happy about. Despite its bad name I love my karma drone. I have 4 batteries and somewhere around 110 hours of flight time and I'm still in my first set of props. I've never had an issue of you know what your doing. I changed my return altitude to 200ft and that's all and I've never had an issue. I was personally very upset that go pro decided to stop making drones. I think it was a good job for there first attempt and I get they could have made some pretty awesome products consider how close the user base is between drones and action cameras.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You can certainly still fly the drone. The unit that best buy sells is a post-recall unit that apparently doesn't have battery connection issues like the original GoPro Karma. GoPro doesn't support the drone anymore, but the final release of firmware is known to be 100% stable and the drone works just the same as it did when GoPro supported the product.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.That is weird. We just purchased this drone after Christmas and have had no issues. We did get a update that needed to be downloaded prior to flying it. We even did this using a phone for a hotspot and it it updated and worked fine.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Bought mine a week ago while on sale. Works just fine after doing the firmware updates.
