For the gopros def want a model capable of 1080p at 60FPS or higher

30fps looks like shit for most stuff you'll be filming with the GoPro.

Hero 3 Black is okay but the white takes some pretty meh video. I had the hero 3 and 3+ both were pretty unreliable, corrupt files and very picky with the memory card you used (only worked consistently with specific models)

I got a hero 4 black last boxing day and I'm so much happier with it, I still get a corrupted file every now and then but the camera can repair it and doesn't freeze up.

Has anyone purchased an RCA tv before? Seems like a lot of good deals on those guys, but not sure how the video quality is

Starting to have some issues with GoPro's, sadly. Last fireworks display we had three set up to take video: Hero 2, Hero 3+ and Hero 4 Black. The batteries on both the 3+ and 4 Black wouldn't hold a charge, despite being plugged in for a few hours and showing a full charge. They also seem to be insanely picky with SD cards recently. The only one that's been consistently reliable lately is the 2, which sucks because the footage isn't very good on it...

I bought my brother an LG IPS LED monitor from Costco for Xmas, they had it on for $149

The stand is very much like a tv stand and it's a very highly reviewed monitor for the price
