When Karma was unveiled last month, there were two main takeaways. First was the lack of much-expected "follow me" features; second was the inclusion of a (not-expected) hand-held stabilizer, turning Karma into a "kit.

This was a considerable upgrade from my previous inexpensive drone. What drew me in was the inclusion of the go pro and the gimbal. This meant I could upgrade my go pro and also acquire a gimbal which made this particular drone stand out from other brands. The drone itself is excellent.

As a package, the Karma has undeniable appeal, especially for those already well invested in the GoPro system of mounts and cameras. It’s a well-built, all-in-one airborne and handheld stabilisation setup that fits into a slim, lightweight backpack. And the Hero5 Black’s image quality does the job nicely. As a flying camera platform, it’s less impressive. With lower range and fewer safety features than its chief rivals, and no “follow me” mode, it just doesn’t offer as advanced a feature set as we’d expect from a quadcopter in this price bracket. With the Mavic Pro and Phantom 4, DJI is streets ahead of (or should that be feet above) GoPro at the moment – but there’s promise here, and hopefully Karma’s next reincarnation will fix the issues and offer up something with bigger all-round appeal.

There was much excitement when GoPro first announced it was going to make the GoPro Karma, its very own drone. With the Karma, GoPro would be able to combine knowledge gleaned from years of building the best action cameras in the business and apply that to the business of manufacturing a proper...
