Remote Control Configuration
The GOCam PM G3 camera supports remote control of the camera’s power on/off and startop of the video recording through the controller. The yellow wire controls turning the video recording on/off and the blue wire controls turning the camera on/off. The following example uses the Betaflight F405 flight controller to explain how to configure the remote control to turn the video recording function on/off. The connection diagram is shown in the figure below. Use the TX1 pin on the flight controller to control the recording, and connect the yellow wire. If you use a different flight controller different TX pads may be available instead of TX1 and they may use different resource assignments. You will need to adjust the configuration Configure the PINIO function of TX1 pin through the following Betaflight commands
resource SERIAL_TX 1 NONE //Turn off the serial port function of TX1
spindle
resource PINIO 2 A09 //Configure the TX1 pin (A09 pin) as the
No. 2 PINIO
set pinio_box = 40,41,255,255 //Set PINIO function interval
save //Save configuration
The following diagram configures the PINIO function mapping relationship between the remote control and the flight control. In Betaflight Configuration, the PINIO function No 2 (ie USER2 in the figure below) corresponds to the AUX4 channel of the remote control.
To activate or deactivate functions on the camera, you will need to move the
switch Beep from inactive (white area) to the active state (yellow area) and
then back to the inactive state (white area).
Your flight controller and radio controller switch configuration must match the
setup of your own equipment. Make sure you know what you are doing before
configuring. If you do not use the remote control function, cut or insulate the
yellow and green wires separately and do not connect to any location.
Download and WIFI Connection
The GOCam PM G3 camera and Insta360 ONE R camera use the same camera control
APP.
Scan the QR code below on your mobile phone, or go to the APP Store and search
“Insta360 ONE R” to download the APP.
After downloading the APP and installing it successfully, you can use the phone’s WIFI to connect to the camera:
- Turn on your phone’s Bluetooth and WiFi functions.
- If the camera is off, press the power button to start the camera.
- Search for a WiFi station with the name of “ONE R XXXXX” by mobile phone, and connect to the WiFi with the password of 88888888.
- Open the APP and click the camera icon at the bottom of the app page to enter the camera control page. When you see the picture transmitted from the camera, the connection is successful.
- After a successful connection, you can record videos and set them up through the app.
Note: The effective distance of the WIFI connection is 2 meters (no interference and no shielding). Since the GOCam PM G3 camera has no screen, the WiFi connection process is different from Insta360 ONE R. If prompted “First connection requires confirmation on camera”, exit and proceed to step 3 above.

regularly to keep it in good condition. This will erase all media files, be
