What are you trying to do? I have the HD-2D and there is no USB connection on it I am aware of, not sure about the 3D.
Got a pic? I would assume you need to update and such via the PC assistant like the HD-2D.
The part on the leg or the ribbon micro USB plug?
That USB is for the Gopro. Normally you would connect to the Mini USB port on the quad itself under the rubber cover on the front. It is used to update the quad, etc.
The plug on the leg (can-bus) is typically used for the iOSD Mini which displays the telemetry on your FPV screen.
I don't know if the pinout on that is the same as other cams but it may work.
Is the plug on your cam in the same location as a Gopro? Plug her in and find out!
Pick up a new or used 3 or 3+ Black model if budget is an issue. They both shoot 4K, etc. Always try to buy the Black version of any Gopro as that one has the most features.
If you get a 3+ don't update it whatever you do (came out Sept.2015)as Gopro removed the video output via USB for some stupid reason.
There is no way to know in advance what firmware GP camera has when purchasing online unless the seller discloses that info. When you buy a GP camera take a short video or a photo put the in your computers reader and open the misc file there you will find which firmware it has. If the camera you buy online happens to have the latest firmware update there is a workaround that does work. At the present time we do not know if GP has an effective way to rollback the latest firmware.
The USB connector is a standard connector which the all GoPro 2 4 use.
