Guess I'll ask this here since no one has any insight over in the fpv department.
Ok so I just picked this cable up. http://www.readymaderc.com/store/index. ... ts_id=1296 I have a Gopro Hero 3 Black Edition not the +. From what I've been researching its not a good idea to power the camera with the 5v red wire that is already on this cable. I personally would not want to power the camera, I would think the battery would be sufficient. Here are my questions
1. If I disconnect this red wire, what is the proper way of capping off so its not gonna affect anything?
2. Does the gopro camera use a lot more power when using FPV?
3. Heard some more stories that using the gopro camera for FPV is a bad idea. I'm using a tarot 2d gimbal is it possible to tape/velcro the fatshark camera to the side of the gopro on the gimbal or is that gonna be too much stress on the motors? I would like to be able to see exactly what I'm filming.
