Diagram of BEC Board

The two buttons on the BEC board has the same function as the stock GoPro buttons. Three actions we will use frequently.

• Power On – Press the Power/Mode button and the LED flashes three times and light off.
• Start Record – Press the Record button once and LED flashes slowly.If LED flash once and light off, it means there is no SD card.
• Stop Record – Press the Record button and LED stop slow flashing.

LED Status

Undernormaloperation, plug the GH1.25 connector intotheGoPro Lite camera firstly, then connect with the battery. The LED will flash once, then you should press the Power/Mode button once in a second to power on. The LED on the BEC board has the same status as the stock LED on the GoPro mainboard.

How to Setup Remote Record

Pilot could use the switch on radio transmitter to start/stop record. Some more configuration needed.

For example, if you useF4 FC V2.0in the drone, like the 95X whoop drone, the connection diagram is shown below.The yellow cable (FCB12 pin pad)is just for the remote record.

We use the Pinio function in Betaflight to control record. First, setup the Pinio function of the B12 pin in the FC board.

resource FLASH_CS 1 NONE
resource PINIO 1 B12
set pinio_box = 40,255,255,255
save

Next, map one of the switch channels in your radio transmitter to this Pinio (aka USER1). As shown below, we map the AUX4 channel in the radio transmitter to USER1 Pinio.The cursor in the orange zone means button released and white zone means pressed. So keep the cursor in the orange zone in default.

Third, check if the Pinio function works.Change the switch and make the cursor move from the orange zone to the white zone, and finallyback to the orange zone.Now you could check the LED status to know if the record starts. Use the same process to stop recording.

If you use the12A F4 AIO FCboard, like the 85X whoop drone, you will use the LED_STRIP pin (aka A08 pin pad) for the Pinio function.

resource LED_STRIP 1 NONE
resource PINIO 1 A08
set pinio_box = 40,255,255,255
save
