Compatible GoPro cameras have high accuracy and high update rate GPS receivers; far exceeding the performance of mobile phones. MyRaceLab session analysis is considerably improved using high accuracy GPS, so if a compatible GoPro is available it is recommended to use the GPS telemetry.

The MyRaceLab mobile and web apps allows users to upload telemetry (GPS and motion sensing) from GoPro files without having to upload the entire video footage. The user can create new MyRaceLab sessions from GoPro telemetry, or add the GoPro telemetry to existing MyRaceLab sessions.

As the video footage is not uploaded to MyRaceLab, a typical 4GB GoPro file only requires around 1.7MB of telemetry upload data, saving time and money on mobile data.

GoPro Compatibility
The following GoPro cameras support GPS data logging and ARE compatible with MyRaceLab:

• GoPro Hero5 to Hero11 with GPS data logging.

• GoPro Fusion

The following GoPro cameras do not support GPS data logging and ARE NOT compatible with MyRaceLab:

• GoPro Hero4 and below
• GoPro Hero11 Black Mini
• GoPro Hero12 Black

GoPro setup
GPS must be enabled on the GoPro. In the GoPro menu select Regional → GPS and set to ON.

GoPro installation
GPS performance is determined by how much unobstructed sky the GoPro has above it. For best performance (and footage!) you could mount the GoPro external to the vehicle in a suitable cover or enclosure. If this is not possible, then as far forward on the vehicle dash as possible is best. This provides the GoPro with maximum view of the sky while still within the vehicle.

At the track
Once the GoPro is mounted, simply turn it on in video mode and start recording before you go on track for the session. At the end of the session stop the recording.
