I can't work out if the new v1.1 will charge the GoPro or not. It's a USB connection so I presume it will.

They answered my comment... apparently it will.

Hi Jaybee,

Yes it will. The USB port will give SD video out as well as provide +5v to charge the GoPro (thank god!) I am awaiting my Naza M v2 version of the H3-3D with the GCU from Quadcopters on Pre order and I have a horrible feeling it will be a v1.1 gimbal.

But I will just have to live with it as I do not see Naza compatible H3-3D's in v1.0 being available anywhere... EVER (mores the pity)

Guessing the only reason they changed this from the original backplug system is because of Lightbridge. Those users will have a different ribbon connector that uses HDMI instead, hence the no GoPro power for Lightbridge users.

Yeah I think you're right, all these units will be v1.1 from now on. I reckon the reason people can still buy the v1.0 right now in the states is because a lot of the stock went there originally.
