maintain weather-resistance, Volta must be plugged into HERO11 Black Mini through the USB Pass-Through Door for HERO11 Black Mini (sold separately). Not an awful lot has changed since its predecessor, the GoPro Smart Remote, but it comes in a smaller size and arguably has more well-thought-out button placement. It features a large high-resolution display that lets you check your camera’s status at a glance, glove-friendly buttons and a handy wrist strap.
Press the [Mode Button] repeatedly, until [SMRTRC] is highlighted, then press the [Shutter button] to select. I can extend my thumb to hit the record button and make a quick glance at its display to ensure it’s actually recording. Besides GoPro’s own offerings, I’ve also had the chance to check out and test several unofficial remotes that are popular on the market. That’s fewer than the Smart Remote and WiFi Remote, both of which can control up to 50 cameras at once. Press the [Power Button] on the side of the BacPac to show the Wi-Fi menu on the camera’s front LCD screen.
Perhaps the best upgrade over the original smart remote comes in the form of increased battery life, thanks to the newly implemented Bluetooth® Low Energy. Press the [Menu Button] to move to the check mark, then press the [Shutter Button] to confirm the selection. I have a question about the Gopro 9 remoite… I cant seem to get the time warp to go real speed w the remote — i do have the time warp set at 2. As usual with wireless remotes, I’ve found that there is a slight lag between pressing the shutter and the camera responding. In practical terms this means that a BacPac accessory may work on a hero 3 Hero3+ and Hero4 camera however the backdoors supplied may only be standard backdoors which means they will not fir on a Hero3 housing.You can also mark key moments while recording with HiLight Tag, or use the Settings/Tag button to quickly change settings. It’s essentially a wearable wireless mic that lets you use GoPro voice commands to remotely control your GoPro.
Its maximum range has also been reduced from 600ft to 196ft, although the 600ft estimate for the previous model was arguably a bit too generous. Their native compatibility, mounting clip and superior WiFi range and waterproofing make it worth the extra money.

From riding, biking and boating to surfing, skiing and snowboarding, The Remote provides quick access to control the most-used camera functions, including powering on and off, mode changing and shutter button control. The new GoPro Wifi remote is an upgraded remote for the Hero4 but is backward compatable, and the Hero3+ Wifi remote is also compatable with the Hero4 however it does not offer the same functionality. Note – another way to get to the Wi-Fi menu is by using the [Power and Shutter Button] on the camera to find it in the camera’s Settings menu. Now that I’ve gotten one and had a chance to use The Remote, here’s a rundown of what it does and how it works.The remote should now display the camera's capture settings and recording mode, indicating that pairing was successful.
