The controller is a thing of beauty and feels a little more like a next-gen console controller than a drone controller but we liked it a lot.

It is easy to get spare parts for the KARMA and there are a never ending supply of accessories for the drone, but you will be all set up from what is supplied in the box from the get go. Should you wish to go handheld, KARMA even provide you with a handheld grip for the GoPro so you can continue your super smooth video or photography on the ground. Even in the most testing of conditions the sturdy KARMA will hold its own and deliver super smooth video thanks to the attachable image stabiliser. You won’t be found wanting when it comes to image quality either. In fact, it is the fully immersive and controllable nature of the KARMA that puts it at the top of our GoPro Drone list.

The KARMA is compatible with Hero 4 and Hero 5 GoPro and features integrated smart technology that allows full control and live feedback of what is being shot. Complete with carry case, the KARMA is a joy to transport with simple folding and removal of the propellers and the reverse to set back up in a flash on location.

It is easy to mistake the KARMA for a Mavic Pro in terms of its looks and if you are familiar with the way the Mavic Pro folds for (fairly) easy portability then you will already have an idea of the style of the KARMA.

You can buy it with or without a camera such as a GoPro 5 or 6 but the KARMA is far from the cheapest GoPro drone to choose from, but we know when it comes to drones that we get what we pay for… and you get plenty of tech (and accessories) for your money with this drone. There are a number of reasons that make the KARMA the number one choice for GoPro but price isn’t one of them we’re afraid. The KARMA GoPro drone sits comfortably at the top of our list as the best GoPro drone on the market to date. GoPro KARMA Drone with Harness for GoPro 5 It goes without saying that the best brand on the market when it comes to action cameras is the GoPro and with the newly released GoPro Hero 5 and the ever reliable GoPro 4 being top options as attachments to your drone, we have compiled our top 5 GoPro drones for you to mull over. The camera is also often the weakest point of a drone so again, by having a removable (and replaceable) camera you can increase the lifespan of your drone considerably should the unexpected happen. Of course, camera technology grows at a similar pace to drone tech but with the end result deemed the most important there is a lot to be said for having the ability to swap in a newer camera rather than having to replace the whole drone. Not all cheap drones come with built in cameras, even the high end premium drones sometimes allow you the opportunity to add your own highly spec’d camera and this is a good idea if the quality of the camera is more important than having the latest drone.
