If the video is captured in Super Wide Angle Mode (GoPro Hero 3+ on H3-3D) will the landing gear get in the view ?

It will if you have your camera level or pointed up slightly. Also if you make any aggressive movements, as the gimble will keep the camera level and either the landing gear and or props will show up. I fly FPV through my GoPro so can see this and can tilt the camera down slightly via the gimble and correct the problem. Also at this setting fly gently no aggressive manoeuvres and you should be ok. Try some test shots, it's the best way to see what works best for you.....Jim H.

I have ever seen the landing gear, but the props are in the picture a lot of the time. But, I purchased my Phantom2 3 months ago, it has spent 3 months of that time not working. The factory is ran by 2 year olds that don't respond to emails or answer their phones. I sent my drone by to the factory for repair and they sat on it for 9 weeks and then sent it back to me without fixing anything. It doesn't fly straight it only goes on angles and makes it useless for video. They claim they are sending me a new unit, but it has been since 5/8/14 that I have been dealing with their incompetence, so we'll see. It's too bad because there is nobody else mass producing drones. I have ever seen the landing gear, but the props are in the picture a lot of the time.

Maybe, I'm using the round floaties you buy at Walmart on my landing gear so I can land on water and protect my go-pro. Sometimes you see a part of it but, I really like it!

Yes in super wide range the legs do come into view while banking on curves. You can always launch and land in your hand and remove the legs when shooting in super wide.

If you get real hard into the yaw you can catch part of the gear for a second but it is really difficult to cause... I absolutely love mine as I don't get the back and forth jitter like the 2 axis...Thanks

no first of all it cant take the payload of a go pro also if you need a higher quality camera get the Syma X5C I wish I had really thought of it before however know this it is in the place #11 in helicopters but the U818A won #3

From what I've read the GoPro H3 uses Micro SD cards (up to 64GB). You should look into a Micro SD card rather than an SD card. Take note of the class of Micro SD card, they start at 1 and go up from there. The higher the class, the higher the speed. If you use a low class card, you will get skipped frames in your video that make it look jittery and unappealing. Go for a high class card and be sure you have at least 16GB at minimum, but 32GB is good and 64GB is best.

The field of view is so wide it is almost impossible to screw up. Straight and level, and you should be fine. Take a test ride, view the recording, and see if it covers what you want. Cannot be easier.

No it wont, Hero 3+ housing is smaller, buy the BlurFix that fits the 3+ housing or buy a hero 3 housing cheap, perhaps used.

Yes However what I didnt like about it is that you have to point it directly at your GO-PRO and then your hands get in the video Mine didnt work trying it from the side or below Hope this helps

Hi, here is the video I took using a cheap Ebay knock off. Will the official GoPro Mount do/look the same? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RqaFysGa0KE

Yes, I have the GoPro Hero 3 and the mount/adapter fit perfectly. Although, I have to agree with the comments about the thumbscrew. I did switch-out the thumbscrew for one of my GoPro thumbscrews, because the one in the kit was to short. The good news - I've used this mount for a few months now and it has not become loose or shaken while I am riding my motorcycle.

Negative it will only work with hero1&2 currently there is no 3d housing from GoPro at the time of writing this for the hero 3

No. You need to buy the gopro hero 3+ standard backdoor kit or the hero3 standard housing.

All GoPro cameras can change which side is "UP" in the setup of the camera. Its just a few button presses to do this. So when you point the camera down at your face the camera will be upside down but it will be recording correctly.

I wasn't sure either because it's not in the recommended list from gopro. I recorded a 7 minute long video (1080p Medium width @ 60fps) a couple days ago and it worked just fine.

I've not tried it, but since the Hero3 is a smaller size GoPro, I would think that it would not fit properly in this kit. Call GoPro support to be sure.

Are you using a J-hook adapter? This should allow you to position the GoPro camera at whatever angle you want. Something like this (this link is not the 'GoPro' brand, but pictures the adapter for your reference): http://www.amazon.com/Smatree%C2%AE-Vertical-Surface-J-Hook-Buckle/dp/B00ESWS3OQ/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1419613960&sr=8-2&keywords=gopro+j+hook

Easily. In fact, I have a GoPro mounted on a GWS Slow Stik and a Hobby King AXN Clouds Fly which are both smaller than the Fun Cub. The Fun Cub and AXN Clouds Fly are my favorite planes. In all case mount the camera of the center of gravity so you won't need to re balance the plane when you are not using the camera.

Gopro's resolution can be up to 4k? it should work if you change the video output down to 1080p or 720p
