The original DJI Phantom quadcopter is now priced below US$500, and it’s designed to carry a GoPro camera. However, while the copter could conceivably be stuffed into a backpack, doing so might be a little … awkward. That’s why the guys at San Diego-based AirDroids created the Pocket Drone. It squeaks in under the $500 mark and is made to carry a GoPro, but it also folds down for easy transport. What’s more, its battery runtime is about twice that of the Phantom.
