Since getting my GoPro Hero 3 Black along with my Phantom in September it has worked fine. I have done about 16 films from the Phantom when it was mounted in its waterproof case without issues. Recording lasting about 8/9 mins each. Today I tried it out on my new AeroXcraft gimbal for the first time. The first flight no problem and a full 7 mins plus recording. My second flight which lasted about 8 mins or so had the recording stopped at 2 mins 21 secs. The camera had not frozen and there was about 22 mins left on the card and two bars on the battery. I did try out the tilt option on this flight but I think that was actually after the recording had already stopped. Since them I have done a number of 11 min plus recordings off the Phantom and no issues. Searching the net there does seem to be a possible issue with either the GoPro stopping the recording or freezing. Hopefully it was a one off but it would be annoying if you shot something really important or risky and find that the recording had stopped. The card I used is a Samsung 32GB Class 10 UHS-1 Grade 1 48MB/s MicroSDHC Plus. The firmware on the camera is v02.39. The recordings are 1080p 50fps Protune off. Could the gimbal interfere with the camera (unlikely) Any other areas I need to look at?
