GoPro/receiver proximity question

After hearing stories of flyaways with GoPro's attached to certain (cheaper) quads I figured it was worth checking to see what others thought. Has anyone had issues? I have my AR8000 mounted on the extended bottom plate of the F450 in front and the camera and gimbal below and in front of that. I haven't flown it with camera on yet so I don't know if it is potentially problematic. There is probably 7 maybe 8 inches between them. Opinions? Has anyone seen or heard of the camera causing issues with naza GPS and/or receivers?

It should be fine. The key is separation. You have plenty. GoPro is noisy on the 433mhz frequency range. On all my equipment I try to not only seperate distance but also ensure CF is between components. CF is exceptional as blocking.

Must of the time, it is the Wi-Fi on the gopro that causes the crashes. Keep it turned off and you should be ok.
