Go Pro

Learn something new everyday, I don't use it enough to know the specs off hand. Thank you.

 

Okay I see where that would come in handy. Wouldn't be viewing and recording at the same time.

 

The app was the best thing that came out for those of us that didn't have the screen on the back of the camera. With ours we could buy a screen that snapped on the back but it was kind of expensive after you spent $400 on the camera. The app also kind of made the remote that came with mine useless. I haven't used it since I got the app.

 

I'll be honest to, the one thing about mine I hate is the battery life SUCKS. Not sure if it just my camera but my buddy has the same thing happen. He got the battery backpac and it resolved it a little bit. Most of the time I do use it I have it in the frame so it can remain plugged in so I don't have to worry about reshooting because of a battery dieing

 

Same here, I have the remote but its useless if you have the app

 

Okay does everybody use them as trail riding/accident watching To put up to You Tube?

 

Wouldn't you just plug it in?

 

I still have the original battery so mine doesn't last as long either as it did when new.

 

I mainly used mine when hunting mounted to my shotgun and at the beach. I have the suction cup mount but have never used it on the truck. I mounted it in the ambulance once after I got it but that's it as far as vehicles.

 

Thank you all. Now I'm in the Danger Zone. I know a little.

 

My 3rd Gen (and I think all 3rd gens) come with an integrated GoPro mount on the windshield.

Yes, battery life sux ballz. Get a skeleton frame so you can power it from the truck!

I am trying to figure out how I can mount mine BEHIND my truck far enough away to see frame flex when wheeling, and still be high enough up to not get clobbered by the trail. If anyone has any idea I'd LOVE to hear them. I have seen some flex mount options, but they aren't long enough. Thinking something like this but maybe 4 feet long http://www.sweetwater.com/store/det...8mdRGH946LzgD4Yak-6wk23RZ7fB9RIaTRRoChO_w_wcB

 

There's an existing thread on this...

No shit? WOW! Thanks!

 

This is second gen. We don't talk about that new truck in here.

 

Thank you

 

This is specific. That's general. Isn't it too cold up there to use a GoPro anyway?

 

Not in the cab it's not

 

Get a drone and have it follow you

 

@Sig45 Did you mean about GoPros in general, or about what I want to do?

 

I'm not sure I could drive and pilot at the same time...
