My experience with GitUp until now is that they understood to build a product based on quality components and the start was with SONY CMOS, they tested at least 5 types of lens with all glass elements, the best microphone they found and more than this, building the camera was based on users feedback and requests from this great forum and not only, like: GoPro full size so you can use your GoPro gimbal and other mounts, external microphone, remote control, Wi-Fi, white balance and exposure lock, Gyro, narrower FOV, 16:9 and RAW photos, real firmware support.īudget Action Cam Review Gitup Git 1 - better than the Dazzne P2? (21 min 26 sec)Ĭould you please clarify - did you implement remote control in a same way as on gopro - only via wifi connection or does your camera allow to be controlled over usb cord?Īs wifi remote control is useless for drone application.Ĭan you do anything to make this camera choose between video and photo mode and stop/start recording from the transmitter input over usb cord signal connected to receiver`s aux port and/or take a still photo shot while recording video?Īs if you will do that - your units will sell like pancakes. If the hardware will be so good as GitUp support you can have the best action camera for the $100 price range. I decided I did not really want to mess with it any longer, because things seemed kind of flaky and unrealiable - but that was obviously just my experience - I gave up after how easy the gopro worked.GitUp is an action cam which have the best firmware support I ever met and I am in „firmwares world” from 10 years! I had pre-production samples for Git1 and Git2 and were days when my useful suggestions were implemented in the same day I requested and I received even two firmwares/day. I did not end up liking my setup though, atleast not once I got my gopro, so I returned the Git2. They have the free designs cataloged and the websites software does all the 3D printing calculations automatically (even lets you know if the part will not print correctly) and you do not have to get into all the nitty gritty of 3D printing stuff. The parts turned out really well and I got um relatively cheap because I ordered several parts at the same time all with the same base specs (color, fill-ratio, etc.) so I was only charge one $10 setup fee (the parts themselves cost anywhere from $1.50 - $6 depending on what I was buying and how many I was ordering. The 3D printed parts are available and i purchased from "", their 3D Co-OP-like printing service. The stock solo gimbal HDMI connector works on this camera after you cut away a bit of the plastic underneath the connector - careful not to slice into the rubber covering the HDMI cable as I did, nearly slicing the wire, making my backup gimbal useless. The gimbal functions as smooth as it did with a GoPro. The fact that the Git2P weighs 23grams less than the GoPro Hero 4 Black helps. I was worried the gimbal would have a problem with the new camera sitting a quarter of an inch forward but it was not a problem. A small amount of trimming of plastic corner under the HDMI cable solved this problem. The HDMI cable was a couple of mm to short to plug into the camera. Velcro is simple and secure plus it makes it easy to change cameras. I use a Velcro strap to hold the camera in place. Then I carefully cut off the rounded tab, on the left side, that was used to hold a GoPro, but was now in the way. Since the GIT2P has to sit in front of the connector, I made a quarter inch thick pad for the camera to rest against (see photo), using the black dense foam that came with the gimbal. I did not want to remove it, because I still want to be able to use it with a GoPro. The first problem I had to deal with was the connector that plugs into the back of a GoPro. Use of this camera required some modifications to the SOLO gimbal, but I made sure that I can still use a GoPro if I want.
