GoPro is looking to court drone FPV pilots with its new Hero10 Black camera — its lightest camera to date. GoPro significantly reduced the Hero10 Black Bones’ weight by removing most of the cameras components, including its battery, screen, and its waterproof capabilities. The only things that GoPro kept for its Bones version were crucial camera parts.
Pablo Lema, vice president of product at GoPro, says in a press release that FPV drone pilots have always used GoPro Hero cameras for their drones, even resorting to sawing them apart to improve the design. Instead of forcing some of their niche users to DIY their own solution, GoPro decided to make a purpose-built action camera for them.
