Any way to record GPS/Altitude

    Hi All,

    We are currently using a Phantom 2 for our company video's, incorporating them with google maps but were lacking a major hurdle and that is altitude. While at a local mall in Brookstone they had a Parrot BeBop which on the smartphone showed a great camera view and at the bottom had the current altitude of the copter while flying. I did some talking but realized that was just visual, when you recorded the video, it just had the camera.

    So, is there any copter and/or software that will record what the camera sees along with both the current GPS and altitude?

    Really would be a huge asset so looking to see if anyone has seen or come across something like this.

    Thanks

    I believe all that info is both on the P3 app screens and also in the logs, which can be played back and/or recorded as a overlay.
    I've never done it but I've seen it done in some vids.

    It looks like dashware does it:

    The DJI Go app allows you to replay your flights with all telemetry, but that's probably just the route (not overlaid), but you could do it on a split screen.

    I think there are probably other apps and methods - but all of the data is there so this should not be a problem.

    Here is some discussion
