GoPro Karma Drone Quadcopter Release

GoPro just went big with the release of its new drone: Karma.

GoPro didn’t just release another typical drone, today the action camera company unleashed a suite of stand alone products that combine into a single drone, giving users unprecedented footage grabbing flexibility.

1.) The GoPro Stabilizer +

2.) The GoPro HERO5 Camera:

The GoPro “Grip” detaches detaches from Karma and can be used as a handheld gimbal with GoPro cameras.

3.) The Karma Drone and Quadcopter:

What Karma will cost:

• $799 just for the quadcopter + stabilizer
• $999 for the Karma quadcopter + GoPro Session camera + stabilizer
• $1099 for the Karma quadcopter + GoPro HERO5 + stabilizer

Notable specs:

• Detachable gimbal: This makes complete sense and we absolutely love the idea.
• Passenger mode (sharing a live view): lets a friend watch the live stream of the Karma quadcopter from their own device.

• Autonomous flying modes: most drones come with this these days, but we saw from the release video that Karma will come with Orbit mode (orbits an object), Cable Cam (flies in a straight line), and Reveal (probably a selfie like shot of some sort).

• Folds up into a compact backpack: designers of Karma emphasized in the release how portable they wanted the Karma to be.
