The Karma was a fail even though I wanted it.

It cost the same as the DJI Mavic but there's no follow me feature, less distance and a bigger package.

The only thing it had going for it which made me want it was you can take the camera out and it comes with a grip stabilizer.

I think in order to gain some sales, they need to improve the range and sell it for $499 without the GoPro.

I initially was going to pick up some stocks in GoPro but it didn't look good and I'm glad I didn't. I would be pretty upset if I did.

They have brought anything innovative into the market in a while and the GoPros are too expensive. I picked mine up with a discount and I like it but any more, I would of passed it up.
 
The Karma would of been a sweet drone to own and with the stabilizer, GoPro and drone for $1100, it was a tough choice to beat.

Then DJI comes to the show with the Mavic and destroys GoPro.

A company like GoPro with their team should of of came out with the GoPro Hero5 Black with 4k60 and 1440p120 and 1080p240.

I am so glad I didn't invest in GoPro and bought more Facebook stocks. Facebook came out and took off and people said to not buy them. Well I did and now I'm killing it. Even at today's prices of 130/share, and I bought today, my cost per share averages to about half that.

Then Twitter went public and GoPro and tried to be like Facebook but instead they failed. After the Hero4, they came out with the Session which was overpriced and failed. So they dropped the price and still failed. Hero5 Black is just a 4 with a case and LCD.
 
And their accessories are so expensive. $50 for a battery a dual charger. Wasabi is $30 for two batteries and a dual charger. And Wasabi is good with their batteries. They are one of the manufactures that I trust. The GoPro selfie stick is like $70 yet you can buy selfie sticks for under $20 for a very durable and strong one.
