GoPro Hero2 (Remote Control to go from video to stills)

[angelillogr]

I was wondering if any of you know a remote control device for a GoPro Hero2 that would allow me to change this camera from video mode to picture mode (& viceversa) and record it whiles flying....?

Does anyone of you take stills with the GoPro?. How do you remotely press the trigger button? or which method do you use to take the picts with the Gopro from the air?

Perhaps this is the answer. Was to be available in February; now March.

I was just going to say, the wireless backpack will be out sometime this spring which in theory gives you full control. Failing that you can set it to continuously shoot at fixed periods. I find the stills quality even on a bright day doesn't even get close to my normal compact though. I would only use the Gopro for stills if I had to!

2 second interval is fun!

It's not the best picture taker, but in good light, clean lens, the pics are usable.
