Action camera kit company GoPro has revealed the results of its efforts to develop an all-in-one drone, the Karma, which will be available from $799 (roughly Rs 53,500) starting October 23.
The aerial drone, whose fold-up wings make it compact enough to fit inside a backpack carry case, is designed to work with GoPro's range of Hero 5 and Hero 4 cameras.
It comes with a detachable Karma Grip stabilizer, to be made available for $299 (roughly Rs 20,000) separately, which can double up as a hand-held camera mount.

Also included is a clamshell controller which totes a built-in display as well as joysticks and buttons.
With the Hero 5 Black camera, the Karma is to retail for $1,099 (roughly Rs 73,600). A package with the smaller Hero 5 Session is priced up at $999 (roughly 66,900); without any camera, the drone is marked at $799 (roughly Rs 53,500).
The Hero 5 Black ($399) and Hero 5 Session ($299) were announced during the same presentation, as were a GoPro Plus cloud storage subscription ($4.99 per month), a Quik Key micro-USB card reader for media sharing and editing, and the voice controlled remote Remo.
