Hi fellas,
             Just considering a GoPro2 and wondered if you need to modify it to F.P.V and record at the same time.
    Please excuse my ignorance

            Cheers guys                          MIKE.

no you can use the tv out , but no case or you need to drill a hole to plug the connector

You can get a case already cut if you want.

More toys  ;D

You don';t really need the full housing for fpv - its a lot of unnecessary weight. I';d go for something called ';The Frame'; - its lightweight and also got cut-outs for all the connectors. A bit pricey thought for something that could be quite easy to fabricate.
