How to chagre gopro while in gimbal

Posted by Matt Alter on March 21, 2015 at 11:25am

Any suggestions. As removing the gopro is not ideal.

I see this

Tarot GoPro Video Cable. Is this what I need?

I don't want to power the camera from the main battery, but use the gopro built in in. Just looking for a more flexible mini usb cable.

  No it's not too bulky. It works perfectly. See here: https://www.cloud-surfer.net/2014/07/11/angled-mini-usb-adapter-for...
  
  Or if you want to take it off for during flights, you can carefully cut the rubber casing off. See here (https://www.cloud-surfer.net/2014/09/28/fpv-setup-for-iris/) under the "Downloading media from the GoPro" section.
  
  I've been using this setup for a while now without any issues.

  Ok that looks like a better solution than what I'm doing stock cable with cut off casing, taped over - as per comments above).
  
  Good heads up and great links Christian.

  Here is the image. Bottom right you can see how I removed the plastic casing and replaced it with tape.
