More info than I could find on the Drift website, thanks!

Dude I legit didn’t know the camera rotated this whole time I just had my videos at a slight angle 😂 thank you

What about demonstrating mounting hardware for a motorcycle or bicycling helmet? Handlebars?

Thanks, good explanation - really useful.

How do you get into a menu setting to change it? The wifi example is not illustrative as you pressed the wi-fi on/off button. Any help appreciated

I bought the Ghost Xl Pro as a motorcycle helmet camera to record any possible incidents on the road. What do I press to save a particular video clip of interest? I do not have the remote control. With other dash cameras usually there is a dedicated button that you can pres to save or "tag" a videoclip of interest. So it won't be deleted by the loop recording of the camera.

TBH there's nothing 'simple' about setting this camera up. I got it for a motorcycle helmet and a week later I still cannot figure out how to do dashcam - the instructions are so poor. You need to be a rocket scientist to understand the setting up procedure - which is very poorly supported in the accompanying 'handbook'. My advice is - avoid it...

My first unit failed and stopped recording. Had it replaced by my local vendor, now second unit won’t charge or switch on. Have a class 10 memory card, firmware up to date, have tried resetting with a pin, tried with multiple charging cables… Shame, because when they work, they’re great.

Correction: You don't need to go through the menu to start the Wifi. Just press and hold the rear button in any mode and it will start the rear LED flashing to show the Wifi is on. Also clone mode allows you to have up to 10 groups of cameras with up to 10 cameras for each group which can share the same group settings and be started or stopped by group. Note also that the camera is "splash proof" without the waterproof case (so not suitable for heavy rain or immersion) and the waterproof case is only compatible with the standard battery and not the XL version.

how to change settings; for example, I want to format sd card. when you come to this setting I've pressed everything no joy

Thanks from Brazil 🤜🤛

MERRY XMAS, and thanks for making this vid.

Anyone have issues trying to rotate the lens?

A decent enough video, except for the period of confusion in the middle, which I would maybe have edited out. It doesn't really show how to select from options within the menus which is what I was looking for.

Just bought it I’m waiting for see it…. Very nice video thanks from Australia 🤙👍

Just bought this for £122 best deal I could find. J&S uk priced matched one i found on ebay for sale. Can I as as I can not find any info on what i am about to ask. If I get on my bike and press record how long will it record for as I often ride for 6 or 7 hours.

To much for my tiny brain all I wanted was a camera I could switch on to record and anotherto play back this things got more menus and settings than Concord so it going back. Can any one suggest a camera for dummies?

Thank you for great tutorial

Very helpful video - thanks. How many hours video will the memory card save before it is full?

Just watched video..sound is great...no prob at all......

Graet tutorial, thanks

xcelent tutorial, thanks. Greetings from Chile

So I have an iPad 12.9 can I use it to download and edit my videos and put on KZfaq?

What about setting up the correct date and year? Wi fi you press the rear button on the curve - hold it and once green flashing turns solid the wi fi is captured- then on tablet settings select drift WiFi to pair

Just got my xl BUT when I start recording videos the screen is red and the front led is red to, but it’s still recording HELP

Awesome thankyou great help.

Great review. I'm hoping to buy this camera for motorcycle travel videos. How would you rate the stabilization? Thanks

Hi I would like to know how you could join recordings together as for example an hour long car ride gets chopped into multiple recordings thanks

15 months old cam.Ghost XL Used 4 times. Gets drenched inside of rain. Manufacturers sticks to their" 12 ,months warrantey" but gives me rebate of 20% for anew purchase. . So I say.. let them keep their crap

Do they have a eyeglass frame mount

HI, thanks for your video! I just bought a Ghost XL, one thing that's got me a bit baffled; Before first use the manual says to format the SD card, and download the BIN file and copy it to the card. Does this have to be done before inserting the card into the camera, or can it be done through the App? Some cards are pre-formatted with FAT32, is this what the camera requires? Thanks!

Numerous Product descriptions all say: "DVR Mode - use the Ghost XL Pro as a safety camera by recording continuously when plugged into a power supply." So does that mean this model cannot record continuously when not plugged in? I.e. when out for a ride on my bike?? Yikes!

How do you format the sd card?

tutorial on pairing?

I've given up on this camera , really shoddy app, never records properly and I've had issues retrieving the video once recorded. Not worth the effort and frustration.

I found following this a little hard work I’m afraid… Surely it is easier to go through the settings via the Drift Lite app to configure the device …instead of messing around scrolling on the device itself… which is hard work and extremely fiddly… You then explained about cloning cameras…And immediately afterwards said you weren’t sure what the clone icon was for??? Anyway my question is can’t work out how to pair the remote device via Drift Lite App … Is it possible or does it have to be paired through the device menu Thanks

Hey can you please tell me why i have one minute recordings and not longer? I just bought it recently.

Thanks for this. I'm thinking of getting one for my cycle helmet. How's the audio from the inbuilt microphone, when recording a video? Any wind distortion?

Adding up all the short videos it took instead of one long video. Seems like I only Got about 4 hours worth of video. Plenty of room left on the sd card

Hi my drift ghost xl sometimes freeze and stop flashing red light. on red light then with out flashing and not recording, then i have to press stop bottom and hold for 30sec to turn off. Anyone have the same problem? Thanks

Hi do you need a sd card or dose it recorded to your smart phone

I bought this camera week ago and when I put this camera on recording mode and it's stop recording by itself. What is the reason behind it . Let me know if possible thanks

Have you tried rotating the lens? Mine won't budge

if you record at highest resolution... how many hours of footage can you get on 128GB?

how do i get the camera to overwrite the card - my card keeps getting full and i have to reformat

Mine died in heavy rain which is bullshit considering the thing is suppose to be water resistant. Drift wouldn't replace it because water damage is not covered in the warranty. wont but again !

I had a Ghost XL Pro and it was truly dreadful. The battery would not hold a charge and despite reaching out to Drift on many occasions, and the fact it was still in warranty, they would not help at all. Their after sales service is non existent and, interestingly, you will not find an address or telephone number for them anywhere on their website!! I would highly recommend not buying one of these cameras but go for something like the DJI Oslo Action 4, a far better all round camera.

is the recorded video too soft on sound ?

Nobody seems to be demoing the App for that thing...

Dude I come to learn how to navigate settings, you don't even know lol

Better staying away from drift altogether...I purchased 3 for family members & 2 have packed in within 18 months... 👎

Maaaan' this is as frustrating as trying to work out the awful instructions supplied by Drift 😮 STOP MAKING VIDEOS UNTIL "you" HAVE LEARNED TO OPERATE THEM PROPERLY..cuz this is not helpful!

It’s bad camera 🎥 save u r money

No sound!!
