ShutterBridge

by YarosFPV

Your camera, on the OSD. Your switches, on the shutter.

ESP32-S3 firmware that links a Betaflight flight controller to a DJI Osmo, DJI Action or GoPro camera - live camera status drawn straight on your FPV goggles, and RC switches mapped to record, photo and mode switching

Compatible cameras

Three BLE backends, one bridge. At a glance:

DUML Tested

DJI Osmo (Nano)

Connect, OSD telemetry, mode readout, record and photo. Can't switch photo/video over BLE - the shutter takes a photo only when the camera is already in Photo mode.

DJI R-SDK Tested

DJI Action / Osmo 360

Full control: mode switch, resolution/FPS readout, record and photo. R-SDK protocol with DUML for battery. Pairing via PIN. Tested on the Action 4.

Open GoPro Untested

GoPro (HERO9+)

Preset switching, load-by-ID and clock sync from FC GPS time. Bonds on the camera. Not yet tested on real hardware.
