GoPro Karma Drone Pairing Issue - Karma Team required video for support

I have never made a RU-vid account or posted a video before, but sadly I now have to for a negative reason. I am making this video because GoPro customer service required me to jump through a bunch of hoops to prove that I attempted all possible troubleshooting for this issue even though they are aware it is a common and widely known issue. I am hoping that GoPro will review my video and offer to replace or refurbish my drones, or somehow otherwise get them working. So far I am very disappointed in the attempts they've made with one exception... their customer service employee Christopher James was an extremely kind and helpful individual to get me to this point, but still the "Karma Team" requires such a video before they will help you. I am confident from everything I have read that there is no way I can fix this issue at home without the remote pairing to the drone itself. Case Reference # 10013597

FatherFigure - did you get this resolved? I went through all the hoops with them and I'm a subscriber. Their only offer to me is that they'll replace the drone body for $129. They insist that they can't waive this even though it's obvious to all that they caused the issue. I did file a Better Business Bureau complaint but that's unlikely to have any impact. We need to get some big influencers who do reviews to notice and start doing videos about the issue.

Thank you sir when can we start on the paperwork for this class action suit?

@Adub_detailing 2 года назад

Best thing to do is keep the GoPro and gimbal and throw everything out and buy a DJI. Had my GoPro Karma for a while now and it has the same problem and no support for the fix other then, they want to sell you another one at a cheap price…… but why the hell would I give them anymore money when I spent like $1800 on it and have they have horrible Tec support and they can’t stand behind the product. Sorry GoPro but it will be the last time I get anything GoPro.

I have the same problem. Seems like a class action lawsuit is needed.

@leonworthjr.1697 3 года назад

I think I have had mine for at least 4 years and have always gone outside and turned the drone on first and waited for camera and gimbal to engage and then turn on the controller, and wait for them to pair that way. So far nock on wood, I have not had any problems.

@dtgoller 3 года назад

I had the same issue. GoPro replaced the drone, then the Gimble, and then the hero 5 camera. The karma worked fine after they replaced the camera.

Hey there I’m attempting to send a video to GoPro using my phone. The the video attachment can only be 25MB. How are you able to send a video to them? Thanks

@distilledthisweek7183 3 года назад

Just pulled mine out same issue, I believe it’s date issue within the drone. Same issue before update and after. Haven’t used in 1 year.

@leonworthjr.1697 3 года назад

Something else I just noticed is I don’t hold down the start button for 8 seconds on the drone, I only hold it down for a couple of seconds and the drone comes on and the camera and gimbal set and then I turn on the controller connects to the drone. Sometimes I don’t get enough satellites to launch but since I have lost satellite connection before I found that the drone is pretty stable without gps. So sometimes I fly without gps. I do not recommend this unless you know this heavy ass drone really well, but the motors on this drone are really strong.

Of course it's their update that screwed things up, same here, I have a mint condition karma drone which I flew very few times and now it won't connect.

@baseballing1129 2 года назад

Good afternoon.....Have you received any support, since this video?

@Father.Figure 2 года назад

Hello, no. In the end they refused to help because I don’t have a receipt and could not prove when I purchased although I don’t understand why that should matter if it suddenly stopped working after one of their updates

@Father.Figure 2 года назад

How did this work out for you? In my case they kept agreeing with everything, but then asked if I still had the receipt, which I do not and refused to do anything.

@thefulchman 2 года назад

@@Father.Figure I have the receipt. I provided everything to them, including the receipt and the video they insisted I make. They won't fix it unless I pay the $129 for a replacement. They actually asked me if I'd tried taking it apart to check for loose connections (which if I did, I'm sure they would they say that the issue is my fault for taking it apart)

@adamtheman17 10 месяцев назад

i hvae the same thing with two drones what can i do to get them working?

@Father.Figure 10 месяцев назад

Unfortunately, I never got resolution for this and Go Pro customer service was terrible. The only way forward is a lawsuit with GoPro which takes time and money, or learning how to reprogram these yourself which I’ve not been successful in doing. I have two drones that just sit in a closet myself, I hope that one day I could at least use the hardware and learn how to re-program the drone using other software.

@broskis80 2 года назад

Go pro KARMA team give no fuck as is them who did this update. What you have to do is do not update any more. Pair it with different remote that doesn't belong to your drone and it will work. What they did is updated it not to pair with already known controller.

@Vlad_Jericho Год назад

SeriousLy ? If I bought a new one from someone it will work ?

@no1ded Год назад

What if I bought a car and one morning I try to start it, and it will not start. I call the maker and all they say is that it is the 'end of life' for the product. Are you kidding? Can you just do that? Is this lawful. that a company can just end the life of a product? Overnight? Any lawyers out there?
