All,
I recently got back into flying after a short hiatus. I have three Solos, all fly great. I have three GoPros, two 3+ Black and one 3 Silver. I can run both Solex and Solo apps but prefer Solex. All GoPros work flawlessly off Solo. I also have a detachable screen which works on all three GoPros. Here is the problem:
If I use my normal startup sequence (Transmitter, Solo, App) I am unable to get video even though the GoPro powers on (red light on front). I have to turn the GoPro off then shortpress the power button to get video feed. This functions identically on all Solos, all Gimbals, all GoPros with both apps. If this were the only trouble Id probably just live with it (Im used to manually recording with the 3 Silver). HOWEVER, I want to be able to control the 3+ Black cameras with the app but am NEVER able to do so. I get video feed (with the fiddling described above) but do not get camera control. Interestingly I found that If I cycle through the options on the camera (power button) the setup icons actually display on the Solex app screen (large icons matching those shown on the GoPro lcd.
What am I doing wrong? Why wont the apps control camera settings and recordings? Did I forget or miss a setting on the GoPro that allows control from the gimbal connector? Plugging in the GoPro detachable screen works fine.
ANY thoughts or suggestions would be very much appreciated. Im ripping out what hair I have left. I don't remember it being this difficult last time I flew (two years).
Thanks in advance!
