After a recall late last year, GoPro has put it's Karma Drone back on sale saying the power failure problems have been resolved.

The Karma Drone was initially released in 2016 and was much anticipated as the next great GoPro product. While initial reviews were good, quickly Karma Drones started falling out of the sky, mid-flight, for no apparent reason. GoPro announced, soon after, that there was an issue with the Drone's power supply and the company issued a full recall of the product.

Now, just months later, GoPro says it has resolved the issue, and the drones are ready to take flight again. According to GoPro's blog announcing the re-launch the Karma Drone may look the same on the outside, but has had great improvement on the inside.

“Karma is the ultimate aerial, handheld and wearable stabilization solution for the GoPro community,” says GoPro Founder and CEO, Nick Woodman. “As the consumer drone market continues to grow, Karma delivers the most versatile solution at a very accessible price.”
