RaceCapture/Track GoPro triggering supported?

Post by WhatsADSM »

It appears that RaceCapture/Track should have everything required to trigger a GoPro along with the datalogging, however I wanted to verify. Is this correct?

Hi -

I'm using the RaceCapture/Pro Mk2 and the wifi module - with that combo, I'm able to use Lua scripting to trigger the GoPro during each session. I'm using RPM as the variable to trigger data logging / video recording.

Hope that helps!

Cheers,
Bryan

Right now GoPro triggering is supported only under RaceCapture/Pro and RaceCapture/Apex with Lua scripting.

Next firmware version we'll be supporting it fully within the firmware, and will include support across all version of RaceCapture, including RaceCapture/Track. Tentative timeline for that is April / May.

Hope this helps!

How about Garmin Virb Ultra 30 trigger? Sounds better for automotive with OBD2 support.

Cool - I'm sure someone could whip up a script in the style of the current GoPro script.
