Anyone see the GoPro Karma release?? It looks pretty impressive, and the price seems reasonable.

Interesting. GoPro has been working on their drone for what seems like years now. Good to see the wait was worth it. Those are some seriously cool features on that thing.

The biggest edge I give out of the box drones like this is the ease of transport. Being able to fold down into something that can put in a backpack like that is awesome.

Well done, GoPro.

My goodness that blows my DJI out of the water. That looks amazing.

Think GoPro is about to take the market over for drones.

Pretty sure a couple different companies are making stabilized selfie sticks.

Just came to post that video. Holy hell looks like an impressive device. Been wanting a drone for a while, just thinking, this might be the one I jump onto.

My only issue is the video quality seems inferior to the P4 and Karma. The form factor and size is impressive, but the stuttering and softness of the image really bugs me. Also wish you could detach the camera and gimble like the Karma.

If you guys are in the market for an out of the box drone, it truly would be hard to beat DJI. They've been at it longer than most and the new Phantoms really are impressive. The Karma looks pretty damn good too and you know GoPro builds a quality product.

Haha so did DJI wait for GoPro to release theirs and then release that beautiful thing? That is simply a great looking drone.

Mavic image definitely inferior to the P4. I think Karma is the one for me.

Also think GoPro messed up not giving him the Karma permanently.

Yeah, can't believe they didn't give him a free one since they just got massive positive free advertising.

Request for Drone owners in Calgary.

I have small out door skating rink in my back yard that I would like to get footage of from a drone perspective.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. PM for details.

Thanks in advance.

Throwing a Hail Mary here. Any chance somewhere here, living in Calgary, has a pair of Fat Shark googles of recent make? I ask as I want to see how the screens look before buying a pair as they can be quite expensive.

The rules on drones are becoming absurd.
