How to make a tiny GoPro Cinewhoop - Beta85X + Naked GoPro Lite

[@JoshVaBien]

Such a well recorded guide! Thanks for all your effort on this, it really helps out other people in the community.

[@Adronious]

Great Video! Did I miss the part where you connect the power lead to the drone? What pads are you using?

[@madhanvasudevan7574]

Finally, I always wanted you to do this build. Thank you.

[@whiffles]

Be sure to try the new V2 pusher version with the V2 naked case.

[@munchgaming4589]

can you try mounting it on brushed tinywhoop?

[@Woodyyes--]

new version without prob guard ? :)

[@daich]

awesome thorough and complete guide. btw, i figured out that screw conflict issue... apparently i have an early version of the front plate where the bottom left hole is lined up with the silver screw location instead of the bottom left most corner. In the end I just left out the front black screw.

[@whiffles]

And now they've got that new injection molded case. That looks nice.

[@bimchers6643]

Don’t know if I’m late to this but, i am trying to strip down my GoPro hero 5 black to mount on my beta85 pro 2. It’s a 2s drone and was wondering if the steps are the same and if the drone has enough power to fly? Not looking to do anything crazy, just hit small gaps going slow.

[@vbp6us]

Joshua Bardwell sent me here. Great review. I didn't even watch his instructional video because yours is so thorough.

[@whiffles]

Awesome! Did he send you personally or did he mention it in a video?

[@vbp6us]

@@whiffles He mentioned your channel's name and linked to it in the description. Basically gave you credit for your instructional video.

[@whiffles]

@@vbp6us Awesome! Watching it now.

[@tomaszboril]

Legit fpv university content, gosh how I love that I grow up on LEGO, time to invest into this hobby. Letsgooo

[@dancefirstthinklater5748]

Is the WiFi antenna unnecessary? If no any cable we do?

[@lowmind]

hi, thanks for this tutorial, is very clear and very well filmed and edited! I found a cheap motherboard and camera lens/sensor. the problem is that if I buy just these parts I wouldn't be able to connect to the gopro app, am I right?

[@whiffles]

You also need a display. Either find one in the naked GoPro community or you can buy one from a store. They're relatively inexpensive.

[@lowmind]

@@whiffles yes, I'll do that. thanks man

[@Time2FLYAlDiaz]

Your video was very helpful but Im not getting red light, just getting green. It just flashes and nothings recording. Any help would be great thanks

[@whiffles]

The new board has a green LED but the function is the same. Press power once and record once.

[@i-dronep.r.692]

Is the beta85x still revelant i already ha e the iflight protek25 , but looking for something much smaller , your feedback wull greatly appreciated 👍

[@loifpv8661]

i just downgrade but my gopro hero 6 black has no wifi band to 2.5 what can i do? how would i know if my gopro hero 6 black is 2.5ghz? im from japan

[@QippysChannel]

does a Hero 4 black for also work well ?

[@whiffles]

It won't work with this BEC and case and frankly I'm not sure it's really worth it for the lackluster video quality of the Hero4.

[@ArifThoriq_syhbn]

@@whiffles how with GoPro Hero 5?

[@gregdavidd]

Anyone know how to remove the microphone

[@GrumezaStefan]

Awesome The wifi is working?

[@whiffles]

Yes, no issues.

[@vbp6us]

Do I need to downgrade to firmware 1.60 if I'm decasing a GoPro Hero 7 Black? I plan to use the stabilization and not ReelSteady software.

[@whiffles]

1.6 is only for a Hero6.

[@vbp6us]

@@whiffles Thanks!

[@terrymurphy562]

Hi Dubya, did you manage to strip your GoPro 7 black down? If so did everything work out ok?

[@raider1284]

What is the really cool electric screw driver you are using in this video?! I'd love to get something like that!

[@whiffles]

Somebody always asks about the screwdriver =D I just added a link to the description. It's the Wowstick 1F+.

[@vektr6278]

Is there anything needed to be done in regards to its wifi antenna? Or it is okay to leave it as is(no antenna)

[@whiffles]

I haven't had any issues, but you can cut some wire and solder it. Joshua Bardwell did a video about that.

[@lassekarlsen]

It works with hero 7 black?

[@whiffles]

I believe the same kit will work with the Hero7 but be sure to double check the compatibility before you buy.

[@Thund3r013]

Great video and excellent walk through!

[@NUROCK]

What about motherboard WiFi ??? Don’t you need to add an antenna ???

[@whiffles]

It's not required, but you do need to hold your phone pretty close to ensure a solid connection.

[@harrybananas8004]

Graet work!

[@dronexfun8469]

Can you do this to any GoPro?

[@whiffles]

This works for the Hero 6 and 7. I wouldn't do it for any but the Hero6 though. It works best with Reelsteady Go.

[@outboxfpv4360]

Very good but risky affair. I wonder why gopro or dji is making a fulll feature gopro micro cam targetting fpv piolets?

[@whiffles]

Probably not a big enough market.

[@outboxfpv4360]

@@whiffles Dji can do.

[@whiffles]

@@outboxfpv4360 Sure, I'd love to see stabilization on the DJI FPV system!

[@BmoreVisuals]

Hey bro, i just got this. I’m having a few issues. My voltage super low, like 14.6 from just 2 mins of flight just cruising around (4s 450mah tattu). It is a little colder about 50 degrees could that impact it that much? Also the first few times i flew it, my video feed would start scrolling, i believe this was due to the vtx overheating, since i have to setup my go pro on my phone, it takes about 2 mins, before i can fly. I have kinda fixed that by turning on the low power disarm.

[@whiffles]

Are you stopping at 14.6v under power? I usually come down around 14v. You might still have some flight time you're leaving on the table. Also, make sure your VTX frequency matches the goggle frequency by the 4 digit number.

[@BmoreVisuals]

@@whiffles vtx channel matches up, i put it in manually on betaflight. Ahhh okay, i was under the impression you had to land at 15.0 but im new to the whole micro scene. Im surprised no one else is having vtx issues, i’m planing on just upgrading the vtx to something a little nicer lol. Thank you bro

[@whiffles]

@@BmoreVisuals On 4S I usually start coming back around 14.1v. It'll sag under 14v pretty quick at that point.

[@BmoreVisuals]

@@whiffles awesome, i’m going to try that next time i fly, i’ve been landing around 14.6 and i felt robbed lol.

[@whiffles]

@@BmoreVisuals What's your resting voltage after coming down at 14.6? Mine usually rest around 15v.

[@seahookfpv]

The yellow wires for? From go pro?

[@whiffles]

It's supposed to be for using the flight controller to start and stop recording, but it doesn't work very well.

[@seahookfpv]

❤️thanks for the reply.👊🏻👊🏻

[@edubermudez]

Incredible brother🤓👍, i havent a GoPro 😭😂, big like and cheers🙏

[@AlessandroGarabaghi]

good job!

[@pojiajaib]

Oh no my propiler 😀

[@foodstudio5339]

Great tut !!! Thanx

[@robertbrander2074]

How many GoPros have you Broke ?

[@whiffles]

This one died the other day. I'm not sure why but my guess is a voltage spike when I plugged my battery in. I'm using an extra BEC through my balance lead now just to be safe.

[@AndrejendrA]

cause Bardwell mention

[@MrPaulielie]

Nice review my friend, thanks keep it up cheers 🍻

[@importon]

very nice

[@payaso2297]

Wow

[@YorkyPoo_UAV]

Someone needs to start making bare action cams

[@LyroLife]

Gopro needs to sell a light weight gopro

[@whiffles]

I wouldn't count on it. The market just isn't big enough.

[@Ardenup]

cant you just get a lighter camera that isnt like 400$ that you need to pull apart :O
