Anybody bought the GoPro karma stabilizer with the handheld grip? No drone, just the handheld portion. And how does it compare to a similar glidecam setup...? Just wondering if it's worth $300

i bought it. i like it. and as far as compares to a glidecam what do you mean? my glidecam is manually operated for my camera that is like 8 times the size of the gopro. karma grip electronically motorized gimbal that you turn on and don't have to worry about. karma is sweet tho, mounted it to my chest and covered it in snow. battery lasted as long as i needed it to. here is a short IG vid of me taking it through the powder

Also interested in this and looking for feedback. I have seen mostly good things. I have an Osmo right now, which is nice, but I dont love it. It feels too fragile and I have to have my phone on it and the sound is pretty bad. Might be looking into selling that and getting a karma grip instead
