Customers are saying

Customers are satisfied with the Karma Quadcopter's ease of use, camera quality, and value for the price. However, concerns were raised regarding battery life, GPS signal reliability, and its susceptibility to wind. The lack of obstacle avoidance was also a frequently cited drawback. Improvements in these areas would enhance the overall user experience.

    If you didn't read the headline, this drone is awesome!!!! It's very powerful please practice using the flight simulator it comes with Bc you'll need the practice before you actually take it out....and listen to the sales rep and don't fly it indoors Bc you'll regret it.

    The camera is awesome as a GoPro always is but… The Karma drone is super fun and works really well when you have GPS. Flight is a bit crazy without it. But still fun. Very powerful. Wish the remote signal was a bit more powerful and the distance a bit more…..

    I know this is not the best quality drone out there. But what it provides is exactly what I was looking for. I wanted to be able to remove the camera to use with other activities. I also want to be able to use the Karma stick on my quad and other toys. So this was the best option. Flying is pretty easy once you learn how to do it :) One gripe I have is that it does not have a "follow me" option I wish it would do that for when I am out on my boat and looking for it to follow me so I dont have to focus so much on flying it along side of us.

    I bought this and where I live I have alot of airports and no fly zones in between fly zones and when I finally got it to fly it didn't want to land on command, other than that I like the concept of taking out the go pro camera, I have since returned the Karma but am interested to see what they do with the next gen Karma.

    It's built in take off and landing system works great for a new drone pilot. The Go-Pro camera integration is awesome and the video I'm able to get is fantastic.

    If you want a great drone with the ability to remove the camera, this is the one for you. Does not have the collision sensors, but really easy to fly. No problems at all. Love it

    With less than 5 minutes total flight time, one of the propellers broke causing the drone to crash. I called support and filled out a accident form. I took almost one month for them to get back to me saying they were sending me another camera even though I had more damage than that. When my package arrived, it only contained propellers. They told me I had to use my Karma Care. Bottom line, the premium support you get with Karma Care sucks. I have to spend another $159 to get my drone back in flying condition. I wish I would have purchased a different drone.

    I'm disappointed

    The only good thing about this deal is seem to be the package and modular approach. You get 3 things that you can use together and separately for $1100. But you get 3 things of bad quality. Drone. I'm heavily disappointed. It heavily drifts it's hard to catch it. If it suddenly looses gps it might accelerate in random direction quite fast you'll have to catch it. It has poor (if you compare to others) functionality. No "Follow me" feature, for example. It has "Orbit", but man, due to drifting it's really hard to make use of it. Open youtube and search for "gopro karma don't buy", you'll see it for yourself. I also don't like controls -- it's either not moving or moving too fast, it hurts video capturing experience. Another thing really upset me yesterday -- battery was low so I urged to land it. I did it, I landed it but then it decided to take over control and ascended (!!!) and only then landed. Why?????? It was already on the ground!!!! Another stupid feature "Dronie" -- it works only from remote. Why it doesn't work from the point I specified? What if I don't want to be in a picture? Battery -- it says 20 minutes of flight. But it's not actually true. You'll spend 15 minutes trying to handle and catch it, so effectively you'll have about 5 minutes of useful flight. GoPro Hero5 Black seem to be the best piece of this set but it appears it's not as good as you might want it to be. Sound is just terrible or better say horrible. Camera has decent video features -- that is the only thing that I really like about it. So you'll have to have external microphone if you decide to use this camera. Grip. I don't like it because horizon drifts constantly. Worthwhile to say that it provides you with really good stabilization while horizon is even, if you standing still. If I'm recording while riding a bike (you can attach grip to a backpack) or sitting in a moving car -- horizon drifts. BUT STABILIZATION IS ALSO ABOUT KEEPING HORIZON EVEN. So at the end of the day it's not doing it's job. And by the way another thing upsets me - it's hard to turn the camera. I.e. if I turn 45 degrees left, camera will still be pointing at old spot. Non intuitive operation. And by the way -- how do I supposed to use external microphone with Grip? p.s. I'm blaming myself for not reading more reviews. I got too excited and now I'll have to return it and pay restocking fee..

    Great drone .. just make sure your GPS is calibrated before takeoff. Any reviews claiming "loss of control" was due to user inexperience because they ignored the audible warning that it was not connected to GPS. Without GPS control, it is completely relying on you to keep it stable (expert mode). As soon as you turn it on, a warning will come up if it's not GPS linked - if so take 30 seconds, calibrate the compass & no worries. And with the addition of a GoPro Plus account - if you break it, they replace it
