It is 127.. which I believe is medium. For aerial photography using a gopro I wouldn't ever use wide... unless you want to feel like you are in a fish bowl. Wide really is more for camera mounted to surfboard or snowmobile or ATV sort of shots.. not when trying to take a picture of something.
This spring I likely will fly a standard canon ELPH.. at least some of the time to get more true to life photos that aren't severely distorted by the lens.
This image is from a GoPro Hero2.. which you can tell mostly because of the apparent 'curvature of the earth' even though I am only 100 feet up or so. I like the GoPro but the wild field of view and fish eye gets annoying after a while.
This is just how the colors in the fall turned out.. I took this in September last year... which is actually stitched together from I think three images I took as a rotated on my axis using my quad copter.

I have been using medium as well. I am about to try narrow for a while to see how that works. I never use wide.
I agree, if you want minimal distortion, get a conventional point and shoot.
Thx for posting. That is a great pic of fall colors.

Which FOV setting was your Gopro? Narrow, Medium, or Wide?
