    This checklist is the drone equivalent of Comcast telling you to reboot your router:
    • Check to see if your drone needs an accelerometer or compass calibration
    • Ensure that the Karma Stabilizer is fully inserted and locked into place
    • Extend all arms to locking position
    • Unfold landing gear to locking position
    • Disconnect and connect your camera to make sure it is generating a preview for the Karma Controller
    • Make sure your battery level is above 15%
    • Make sure the drone is on a flat, level surface
    • Check the Karma Controller's map to see if you are in a no-fly zone
    • Check the Karma Status Lights article to check the status of your drone
    • Make sure that propellers are well-tightened onto motors
    Stupid simple, but sometimes we forget or overlook the small things!
