I've been eyeing the Karma GoPro Drone. My worries is the size for travel and the battery life.

I'm purchasing for photo and video purposes.

I looked at Diji Spark Drone. Small enough to travel and picture looks great. Just the battery life kind of sucks.

I want to stay in the $500 range total.
 
DJI is basically the route to go for consumers.

I heard them GoPro drones were buns

You finally can get that opportunity to sell off part of your drone “army”

Try to get a DJI Mavic Air if you can. Shoots in 4k and better battery life than the Spark (21 minutes). Foldable arms too. Its 800$ but a vast improvement over the Spark. They include a controller though

Yeah I would go with the Air as well. It'll be tough to get it in the $500 range tho.

If you buy it at bed bath and beyond, you can use the 20% off coupon bringing the price down a little bit. Or wait for any Black Friday deals.

I got the fly more package on sale for ~$800, so just keep an eye out for them sales.
 
Anybody heard of the The Anafi by Parrot’s...

The Anafi is Parrot’s newest drone and it is designed to compete head-to-head with the Mavic Air. It was just released a few months ago in July.

The Anafi has a great 25 minute flight time. It also has a 4K camera that is capable of 21 MP photographs. The camera is able to losslessly zoom by up to 2.8x. By contrast, the Mavic Air has a 21 minute flight time and a 12 MP camera.

The wings fold into the body to create a portable design just like the Mavic Air. Both drones also have the same maximum flight range of 2.5 miles (4 KM). There’s no obstacle avoidance like the Mavic Air does. This means that it will be harder to fly with confidence in challenging terrain.

The Mavic Air is on sale for $699, which means that you can save $150 by getting the Anafi and get a better camera and longer flight time. It’s really all about what features are the most appealing to you.
