Figured I'd go with a cable coming from Sporty's vs some unknown ecommerce - second merchant. Cable length is great, easy to plug in both for headset and GoPro.

Durability5 / 5Reliability5 / 5Performance1 / 5Ease Of Use1 / 5Value5 / 5Good product, but.Lots of product and received it last week. I mistakenly bought it because I seen GoPro 4, but unfortunately I have the GoPro 4 session witches cable does not work on. I emailed the manufacturer of this cable the day after I received it, and still haven't heard from them if they make a cable or an adapter for the cable for the GoPro 4 session. I'm sure it's a great product if you had to go pro 4, but don't buy it if you had to GoPro 4 session because it will not work.- Was this review helpful? Yes (3) No (0)

Durability5 / 5Reliability5 / 5Performance5 / 5Ease Of Use5 / 5Value4 / 5It works really wellThe cable captured all audio (intercom and radio) with great clarity. It worked nicely out of the box without complications. Here's a video I made with it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QOFqMTsanmY where you can also hear all the conversation and the radio exchanges. The cable is long enough to come up on the left-hand side of the cockpit, pass above the visors and connect to the camera that is hanging from the top of the windshield with a suction cup. Of course you need to buy a GoPro case with a side opening, but they are easy to find for less than $20 on ebay.- Was this review helpful? Yes (2) No (0)

Will this adapter work with the GoPro Hero Session?BEST ANSWER: NO IT does not. The mini USB does not go into the MICRO on the session. A mini to micro adapter did not help either.- Reply

No link or suggestion for which case is best with this product...anyone have that info?BEST ANSWER: Assuming this refers to the case for the GoPro camera itself, there are two options (as far as I know). One is a case similar to the standard watertight plexiglas but with cut-outs for the side connections - don't use it underwater.... The other is a 'frame' mount, as shown in the picture. This has an opening for the mini-usb connector. Both of these are available in most stores that sell GoPro products, or through Amazon.- Reply

Does this cable have the resistor in it, needed to disable the internal mic ?BEST ANSWER: I’m not sure about if it has a resistor. The cable plugs into the USB-B port on my Hero-4 Black, it seems THAT shuts off the mic on the camera. Then, all you’ll hear is what comes over the headsets. When plugging in the cable, be certain it is in the port fully. I missed out on audio from one of my training flights because I was in a hurry. One of the training copters my instructor uses also has an unusual transmit function of the radio. You can hear everything except what YOU transmit.. But that is nothing to do with this cable. I have had great success so far with 20+ other flight vids. The audio from the heli headsets is awesome. The GoPro battery is short lived and I have to use a small porta pack battery to get more than about 45 minutes record time. Hope this helps!- Reply(1)

Works periodically in a C172 M with some jiggling and electrical tape, doesn't work in a C 172 SP. I use Telex Echelon 20 headphones which have a mono 1/4" connector, and a GoPro Hero 4. There's a problem between my mono 1/4" headphone plug and the Sportys adapter which has a stereo plug. Is the adapter 'stereo' (because the plug is) and should it only be used with a stereo headphone plug?BEST ANSWER: I have a C 177B Cardinal and I plugged it in to the back passenger side and my go pro 3 and 3+ works great with this set up my instructor has expensive set of headphones and I have a 100 dollar pair and both sound great- Reply

Will this work with the Hero +LCD?BEST ANSWER: Yes, as it does not obstruct the audio socket. You will need the skeleton case or, as I did, cut a hole in the standard case to allow the cable to pas through.- Reply

There is a female USB outlet pictured, is this for power source for the camera? It will not charge the camera by only plugging into the jack?
chevaughn c oBEST ANSWER: Correct - the audio plug goes into the aircraft's audio panel and does not provide power. The mini USB plug is to power the camera, using the camera's included charging cable.- Reply

Will this cable work with a helicopter headset?BEST ANSWER: The short answer is: not as it is, but you should be able to buy (or make, if you are so inclined) a separate "standard fixed-wing headset to helicopter" adapter, and use the two in conjunction with each other.- Reply
