Problems with GoPro 3 Hero Black

Recommended Posts

My hero 3 black has locked up numerous times on me in the plane on the ground etc. etc. etc. I have done the firmware updates and nothing has changed. I have the battery extension on it as well. I'm sick of it already, my old hero 2 was good!

My Silvers have been reliable for the last 3 weeks. Before that update 3 weeks ago, both Silvers were having issues, requiring battery removals often. My Black is still unreliable enough that I don't take it on paid jumps. I prefer the Silvers to my Hero2's now because they're finally reliable and the mics are much better.

My first silver locked up irreversibly and had to be sent back. The replacement has been just fine with no issues. My black locked up once in its first week but has been fine ever since.

Certainly there's a software issue that remains unresolved.

The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.
