In the Wi-Fi menu, press the [Mode Button] until [Wi-Fi RC] is highlighted and then press the [Shutter Button] to select it. All of these remotes have built-in rechargeable batteries that aren’t removable. So you need to connect the remote directly to a power source to charge it. I’m personally a bit ambivalent about the voice control, and especially with the REMO remote. I’ve had too many times when it hasn’t worked as reliably as I’d like it to and I’ve ended up having to work around it. But in those situations where voice control is important, the Remo is the only option for controlling a HERO6 or HERO5 remotely by voice.

Complete camera control: delivers full remote control of all Camera Functions, including shutter, on/off, and settings. If you see [Detach current remote?] Highlight and select [Yes].

Press the [Info/Wireless Button] one more time to show the Wi-Fi menu on the camera’s front LCD screen.Press the [Menu Button] repeatedly to move to [Connection Settings], then press the [Shutter Button] to select it. The Remote is the successor to GoPro’s existing Smart Remote, which is compatible with older cameras and offers superior specs in certain areas — it has a range of up to 600 feet (180m), it can control up to 50 cameras at a time, and it’s waterproof down to 33 feet (10m).

The GoPro Remo is proof that not every official accessory is great. It’s essentially a wearable wireless mic that lets you use GoPro voice commands to remotely control your GoPro.

Press the [Menu Button] to move to [Connect New Device], then press the [Shutter Button] to select it. GoPro has had four different remotes for their action cameras. Two of them are current models, two is an old model but you can still find it for sale in some places, and each has its own strengths and weaknesses. Power ON the Wi-Fi BacPac and HD HERO2 camera while they’re NOT attached to each other. Then, attach them. One thing to watch, though, especially if you’re mixing GoPro models, is that operations like start and stop are close but not exact down to the frame. That is, you can still end up with slight lags from camera to camera when starting and stopping recording.
