Using Multiple Gopros

Post by gibbo555 »

Hello All, Newbie here

Sorry if this has been covered before (prob has). Is it possible to link mulitple GoPros to the lap time? I was having a play and wouldnt work for me.

I have 2 x Hero 3/3+ and a Hero 4

No, not possible. You can connect a smartphone to one WiFi network at a time and GoPros are not able to use a common network. I suggest to use their remote control here, so you will be able to use the same video lap sync point for all cams. The GoPro RC users some proprietary network communication not available for smartphones.

Thanks Harry

I will probably just use the GoPro App to control them then and run the lap timer separately on its own

The GoPro App can't control more than one HERO either. It is running on a smartphone ;-)
