Remotely take stills with gopro camera

[Troy003]

Im curious as to what options I may have for remotely taking video stills with my go pro. I have a TBS discovery with a custom gimbal and would like to remotely take stills. I know the go pro app running wifi would be a great way to view in realtime what I am seeing and also take a photo/video but running wifi while using my dx8 on 2.4gh is not a good idea considering wifi frequency is right around the same range. Any ideas as how to use the app wirelessly without interfeiring with my transmitter? Could I somehow transmit on a different frequency while using the DX8 by using dragonlink or similar?

Thanks,

Troy

Anyone have a clue? Also just though about puling the stills from the video but wonder how they will compare in quality as to a regular picture on the go pro.

Thanks,

all GoPro cameras have a setting that allows you to take continuous photos at what ever time interval you choose form.5 seconds to 60 seconds ( I think thats the time choices)

Keep hitting the button in the middle till you see fames thats the option, now menu down and choose how often you want a photo. Then just hit the shutter and fly.

You will have about 1000 pictures when you land

its called "time Lapse Mode"

Well, I guess I made things more complicated than they needed to be!

Thanks so much!

What about trigger now? I want it to take a single picture on command.

You will have to hack the high density connector on the back to be able to do remote commands like that.

Time lapse FTW!
