" ... It’s a very stable camera platform. ... "
" ... GoPro Karma is a great drone for starters. ... "
" ... To be fair, the GoPro Hero 5 Black camera rocks. ... "
" ... There is a reason why GoPro is the best action camera brand around. ... "
" ... So, how do I install the bloody camera?!?!?!?!?!?!?!? ... "
" ... Good work Gopro! ... "
" ... The karma drone is more than adequate to carry the camera. ... The drone is very easy to fly, and you can't beat the action camera. ... "
" ... I had really been considering the Mavic, but since I already had the camera it was not only much cheaper to go with the Karma, but getting a handheld gimbal included was great addition. ... "

" ... Has not worked at all even out of the box. ... "
" ... Broke within 3 days of getting it. ... "
" ... Fails every other time. ... "
" ... DJI Mavic may have had problems, dunno. ... But Karma's response is as disappointing as the fact that it still doesn't work nor will they replace it with a full new unit (or apprently unwilling to). ... "
" ... I just tried to fly it for the first time today and it immediately flipped over and broke all of its propellers and now it won't fly right. ... "
" ... Showed error 'No Stabilizer Found', which would not go away. ... "
" ... It flew very far and crashed and is now gone. ... "

" ... Broke within 3 days of getting it. ... "
" ... Feels like a software glitch or electronic issue. ... "
" ... - The landing can be rough if its not on a flat surface. ... "
" ... and that feels like it could break after taking the camera out a few times. ... "

" ... I have had issue after issue with the Karma drone. ... I have spent hours and hours on the phone with them. ... "
" ... I purchased an extra battery and charged up both batteries and neither on will sit properly in the drone and it will not turn on. ... "
" ... It crashed with a fully charged battery! ... "
" ... Battery doesn't fit! ... "
" ... I can see from the video that the lights were off, it completely lost power on a full battery. ... "

" ... Once you take the time to get the current updates and learn to fly it, you will love it. ... "
" ... Great system and easy to use. ... "
" ... - Easy to fly ... "
" ... Wow so easy to use As a first time drone user we were surprised how easy it was to operate ... "
" ... It was all easy to get set up and get updated . ... The drone itself is fairly small, simple, and easy to set up. ... The controller is a little bulky and could be snappier UI wise, but still works well and is easy to operate. ... the Karma is certainly the easiest to set up and fly. ... but if you are already using the gopro system or want something easy to use that can be utilized beyond just as a drone, it is a good option. ... "
" ... And the drone is easy to fly. ... "
" ... Extremely easy to use and the gopro editing platform is only getting better. ... "
