GoPro Karma Drone! first thoughts!

Looks like GoPro is finally catching up with the rest! The first news about the GoPro drone has been circulating since last year. We have waited 2 years since the release of the GoPro Hero4 for something new.
Can GoPro Hero5 ($399) and the Karma drone potentially position GoPro not only as already having the most popular action camera but also a drone?

Foldable, compact and with a competitive price tag.



Available from Oct. 23 the price starts at US $799.99 and if you want to include a GoPro Hero5 it will cost you $1,099. The handheld grip for stabilized shots is an exciting addition and it's soon to become a standard for hobby drone consumers. You can also buy that desperately for $299.

The touch screen controller, 3-axis camera stabilization and 12 Megapixels photos.
Passenger mode lets others see the live drone feed on their smartphones and also operate the camera. No more friends trying to get a glimpse of your FPV screen and distracting you while you fly!
The Hero5 has a waterproof design even without the protective case. Water damage on the drone camera should not be a problem up to 33ft.

Does that mean GoPro will be changing the market? Perhaps it's worth investing in GoPro shares (Their shares have been falling since DJI introduced its own drone integrated cameras) or maybe wait and see what DJI announces next week?
