Got to love that 179$ MSRP for a HD Go Pro though you lose ability for external battery and external screen, but who cares, get this, strap it into a camera mount, maybe with an FPV camera attached for sending back fpv video, as well as for aiming the go pro

walla

the original HD can this one cant, they dropped the output port from the cheap model

Just so you know, this doesn't record 1080p or 720p 60fps, so it isn't as good as the HD Hero. This one goes up to 960p and 720p 30fps.

@Joel
It can transmit SD video out and record HD at the same time with the latest firmware update
