Introduction

OSMOTM Action GPS Bluetooth Remote Controller (hereinafter referred to as “remote controller”) connects to Osmo Action 4* via Bluetooth. Users can control the camera remotely to capture footage using the remote controller. The remote controller supports single-camera and multi-camera control modes so that users can shoot with up to 16 cameras simultaneously. The built-in satellite positioning modules enable users to record accurate data in motion.
