After many delays, GoPro today announced their Karma Drone. Here is a great post on RCG which shows the basics – the beauty of this drone is that it comes with a full package including a backpack and a hand-held camera stabilizer (mount for gimbal)….so the GoPro fan or owner can have a complete setup for both ground and aerial photography.
GoPro also introduced two new cameras – the hero5 and the Session5.
Here is the complete launch video:
Karma is slated to ship Oct 23rd.
As usual, we caution most drone shoppers to wait until the unit is shipping for a month (or 3) before deciding on a purchase. This will also allow you to read the various reviews that follow the initial launch.
We will update this article with opinions, reviews and links.
Note – DJI is slated to release a new Drone next Tuesday (9/27) in New York City. Rumor has it that it will also be a compact and foldable model – named the Mavic. Droneflyers.com will be at the launch event and report on the new DJI model ASAP.
