GoPro Karma User Manual TAKING OFF

Before taking off, be sure to complete the items in Pre-Flight Checklist.

1. Place Karma on flat, firm ground in an open area. Point the camera away from you.

2. Power on Karma and the controller. Karma takes a few minutes to warm up. During this time, the stabilizer might move around. Do not move Karma until the light around the Start/Stop button turns solid green.

3. When the controller confirms that Karma is ready for flight, press and hold the Start/Stop button on the controller for 3 seconds to start the motors. Note: The Karma controller contains antennae that must be directed at Karma at all times. If the connection is lost, Karma returns to the launch location. For details, see Automatic Safety Landings.

4. Select one of these options:

   1. To take off automatically, tap the auto takeoff button on the

      touch display.

   2. To take off manually, gently push the left joystick forward

5. Use the joysticks to guide the drone during flight.

PRO TIP: As long as Karma has a GPS connection exists, the drone hovers in place whenever you let go of the joysticks.

🚧

WARNING: Never touch Karma while it is in flight. Do not touch the propellers while they are spinning. The propellers have sharp edges and move rapidly with force.
