 If you've been listening or watching any of the videos and listening to Steve and I on the podcast for the last few years You know Steve's a big drone fan, and he's an even bigger GoPro fan So I'm here with Jake let's see Jake bars from GoPro and it looks like you got some pretty cool looking new stuff here Yeah, hey, thanks for stopping by This is the newest member to the GoPro family The GoPro karma You can see here that it's a quadcopter. It is a quadcopter You can see here that I'm holding the drone It's collapsible both the arms and landing gear fold up and fit real nicely into the karma backpack Which is padded and also comes with the drone The coolest part about this system is that the karma is much more than just a drone The same stabilization that you get in the air you also get hand-held and mountable You can see here that the gimbal is modular So it easily removes out of the drone So he just he just pulled the gimbal off the front nose of the of the drone And it's got a GoPro already attached to it, and he just stuck it in it into a handle Yeah, and so now I have that same level of stabilization No jitter no jello in the video And now it's handheld Crazy, I mean how could now I assume you pushed a lever of some sort it doesn't come falling out, right? Yeah, that's that's correct there So we do have a pretty awesome gimbal dampening system here There's a few reasons why we put the gimbal on the front of the drone The first being to reduce that height so that when it does collapse down It's it has that sleek height that's easily fit into any backpack The other reasons being you'll never get the props in the shot with the gimbal out front here And the third reason being you get this stabilization So this thing will stabilize and hold its position in gusts of wind up to 35 miles an hour Wow, I gotta tell people what I'm looking at so so this has got azimuth and elevation and roll But there's also dampening inside so you can see this this is can you see that moving there Steve? But yeah, do the bloop bloop thing. Yeah, it's kind of waving up and down It's got a little dampening so that it's really stable. Yeah, that's right So yeah, it's a it's a three-axis gimbal really burly Super rugged extremely splash proof You can see here that we are sporting the hero 5 black. However, the karma is Compatible all the way back to the hero 3. Oh, it does. Oh, okay, great So we can use both because we actually do use the hero 3 on the other quadcopter. So that would be pretty slick. Yeah, so Worth noting the design of the karma controller. So this is our proprietary controller. No Smartphone necessary So we got the inspiration for this design Based off of a video game controller super intuitive to joysticks Trigger buttons for shutter in mode full camera control in flight this Dial here will actually control the gimbal pitch And the screen is about two times as bright as the average smartphone So even in the most severe desert conditions, you'll still have all that detail there It's also designed to be used with polarized glasses. So you won't get that distortion effect. Oh fantastic I mean my iPhone. It's just black in one direction. Yeah. Yeah, so I mean also to have noticed that this closes up into just a nice Little compact thing. It's not got the the display hanging off at some annoying angle with screws You got to take off. It just folds up into a little box. Yeah, no dongles. No kind of you know We try to go minimalist on this Like I mentioned with the gimbal, this is also super splash-proof And yeah, it's super easy to just pack up anywhere and it's got a fashionable wrist strap Yeah, so you can swing it on your wrist exactly, but actually really handy when you're carrying the other stuff You can take that right now. Yeah, totally. Okay, keep going. Oh, no, I was just gonna point out With with the grip as well. So if we go back to the grip There's a couple different modes that we have As far as about the grip for the for the gimbal now. Yeah, so You can see here Right now we're kind of level with the horizon. So this is like a chicken. This is the home position Now if you hit this pitch lock button Let's say you wanted to get that shot of a bird flying overhead You just hold that pitch lock button and let go and it'll actually lock that pitch Until you hit this but pitch lock button one more time and then it will return to home. Oh, wow That's fantastic. Yeah, it's like it's great that it's stabilized. No, I want to look up I want to look up and you'll also notice so this is There's a space right here. I don't have it mounted right now the mounting ring But you can actually mount the karma grip to any GoPro accessory. So You not only have this air, you know aerial and handheld solution. It's now mountable to any of your GoPro accessories That's cool. Now speaking of accessories. We've probably spent about $12,000 on those so far But I really like that this this whole setup comes as one thing, right? You can buy all of it together You're not going to come back and say oh well the controller is an extra dollar or whatever. It's a it's all included, right? Yeah, it's a it's a lot of stuff and one backpack for a really competitive price Okay, so the drone the controller the the grip the gimbal The GoPro hero 5 and the case together is how much 1099 that is a really really good price because the The GoPro hero 5 I think is like three five four hundred dollars right now I mean I'm so with the bundle use you're saving a hundred bucks on your camera Yeah, that's crazy So you can you can get this without the GoPro though if you've got the other part if you already got the go That's right. If you're happy with your hero three or four You can buy the bundle without the camera for $7.99. That's crazy $7.99. Oh What kind of flight time to get on there so you get up to 20 minutes flight time With this battery charge time on the battery is 45 minutes and then yeah 20 minutes flight time Comes with one flight battery One cool thing about our charging system So if you pull the flight battery out of the drone You can actually use it as a power source to charge your other GoPro accessories Okay, that's pretty cool. Yeah, you got a battery right there. Why not use it to charge the display, right? Yeah, exactly That way you can fly all day And one cool thing that I've been able to do is take really stunning time lapses using this external battery source So basically with this hooked up to the flight battery The only thing constraining your time lapse is your sd card space. Wow. So he's this is the battery has come out of the of the Karma quadcopter and he's now charging his gopro and running his gopro off of that and charging the display That is a really slick system. I'm guessing people who've used gopros and quadcopters help design this That's for sure. Um, this really feels like all of the friction is gone. Yeah, every every aspect was well thought out You know from the gimbal design to the landing gear and the foldable props To even the motor tips Just with the ease of which you can you know remove remove them and replace them Now they don't fly off like that. Do they because he's done that before too. No, no, uh, You don't fly so good with three props. I don't know if you know that. Yeah, no the uh, the centrifugal force should Secure them on. Um, so that's only if you put the screw on right But yeah, so this is karma. Uh, you got, you know, air land nc covered in one backpack Um, hollywood in a backpack for 10 90 see covered. Um, yeah, I mean with the hero. This is waterpump. No, no, no Karma is not waterproof. Okay. However, the hero five black is waterproof out of the box. Yep We used it in the Galapagos, so we definitely can vouch for that one. Awesome. All right, though. Thank you very much This is fantastic. I'm very excited. Awesome. Thanks so much for stopping by
