I'd like to see a bullet point 8 :) 8. Upgrade your GoPro to the new firmware where gopro have recognized a problem in the camera firmware and have fixed the issue where the camera does not freeze anymore. Your video may be stored at a lower resolution/fps due to a 'problem' SD card, but your...

Yep, it's the easy way out to blame the SD card. I bet the SD card may be contributing to the problem, however the camera itself should be robust enough to recognize a problem card and not freeze. Perhaps store data at a lower rate or not even store at all.

Never done that yet, but recently wrote some software that let me fly my parrot ar drone using a joystick ;)

My Black used to lock up within 30 seconds of powering it on without a card installed.

I cannot get it to reproduce at will, but when I last talked to GoPro support, their attitude was just to return the camera and you get a new one (which may also freeze up ;) )

GoPro told me the exact same thing. "Freezing ? Really ? Never herd of that". Then I told him to go Google freezing gopros and tell me how many hits you get ;) The Black was returned to GoPro and exchanged for a new one. I sold the Black and tried a Silver which seemed to be a lot better...

I've had the exact same thing happen with both a Hero4 Black and Hero4 Silver. The Silver seems more reliable than the Black but overall I'm not impressed with the reliability of these cameras. When mine locks up I just hold down the power button on the camera for around 10 seconds. Don't...

I'd also like the ability to stop/start the GoPro recording without the need for a gimbal. I'm using Android too. Had a horrible time getting the GoPro Hero4 Silver to work a couple of days ago. Powered everything up, no live video. Discovered the camera had frozen. Rebooted the camera, no...

So I've been flying in the house in manual mode lately. Flies great apart from the solo is consistently drifting at the 2 o'clock position. Nothing big but it's fairly consistent between flights. I was wondering if there's a 'trim' setting somewhere that I could tweak to see if I could reduce...

Just completed the upgrade. All went well, no problems from what I can see apart from the upgrade wiping out the assignments I made to the A | B buttons on the controller

I had a Hero4 Black that would consistently lock up. Returned it, but switched to a Hero4 Silver ( like the LCD on the back ), and it's been much better. Still locks up every now and then but it's rare

Is this something that was added in the latest firmware upgrade ?

Mine just did the same thing 5 mins ago. I connected to SoloLink but my mac wifi icon in the menu bar up top was still animating like it was finding networks

Sign me up for one :)

That may just mean that the mac has network connectivity but not external internet connectivity. Either way, it's a 'mac' thing and nothing to do with SoloLink ( I think ;) )
