#040 - Drones Falling Out Of The Sky with Forbes' Ryan Mac

from Commercial Drones FM

This is the story behind GoPro's harrowing entry into the global drone market.

Forbes Staff Writer Ryan Mac joins Ian and tells the tale of how GoPro's Karma drone came to be, how it was rushed for release, and the ensuing aftermath of the global recall once these drones came crashing down. This story is based on Ryan Mac's Forbes article titled, "The Sky Is Falling For GoPro."
