I have a Phantom 2 with the H3-2D and a GoPro Hero 3+ mounted. I went with the Kumba Cam combination as a starter FPV and failed to read that it would need more parts or modification to work with the P2. I installed the FPV hub and iosd mini. I spliced the battery wires from the vtx to the brown and red wires on the plug provided with the hub. I spliced the black and white wire from the video out on the vtx to the brown and yellow wires on the plug. Vtx powered on, but no video on the monitor. I reconnected the USB plug that came with the Kumba Cam setup and plugged it directly to the GoPro.
This is where things started to fall apart. The vtx is being powered through the hub and the GoPro is being powered by the gimbal through the hub. When I plugged directly into the GoPro I did get a video feed to the monitor. This stayed on for over a minute and was very clear. I powered everything down from the battery and removed the USB from the camera. Rewired to the FPV hub plug and re-powered everything to see if I could get video through the hub itself hoping that I had somehow hit a magic combination and fixed my problem. No video feed, so I checked to make sure the GoPro was actually on and it was not and hasn't come back on since. It will not charge, or start without the battery. I have tried every single combination the internet has to offer on resetting a GoPro and it is dead.
Could the video leads have fed power back through the USB port and shorted something out? Still waiting to hear from GoPro, but my hopes are fading. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
