Captain Obvious said:Many people find the manual to be very helpful. The manual lets you learn all kinds of wonderful things about your Phantom.
Things like:
~It operates at 2.4Ghz not 5.8Ghz.
~DJI warns you not to use the wifi on your GoPro.
low&slow said:Can I use wifi on a GoPro 4. I have a phantom1.1.1 with 5.8 GHz. I have read that it's ok to turn the wifi on the camera on. Someone else said don't do it. It will interfere with the transmitter. What are the facts? Thanks.
Captain Obvious said:Buckaye said:well.. your name fits... but the OP said they have a 5.8 Ghz version phantom 1 ver 1.1 - which seems actually DOES exist -
It's not as usual - but I found several by googling it... including a used one for sale
So - I'll choose to believe the OP and say if that is the case - using the gopro wifi should be ok... as shown on this advertisement (for a phantom 1 version 2 - so double check you are correct about the frequency)

5.8Ghz Dual Antenna
The latest Phantom 1 V2.0 is using 5.8Ghz RC Controller, this gives stronger Anti-Jamming capability and 5.8Ghz will NOT jam GoPro's Wi-Fi signal, less jamming means safer flight and smooth GoPro Wi-Fi video feeds.
The 5.8GHz TX/RX "Phantom 1" is called the FC40.
Phantom 1.1.1:

etc.
etc.
Captain Obvious said:You are still very confused. The FC40 is the P1 variant with 5.8Ghz controls that uses standard RC batteries vs. proprietary DJI batteries.
I would suggest that you actually go to DJI's website rather than frantically Googling to try to prove something that is false.
The manufacturer does not list a Phantom 1.1.1 with 5.8 Ghz TX/RX so why are you clinging to that fantasy?
