FlyTron Infrared RC remote for Sony NEX

The FlyTron RC IR Shutter Controller allows you to manually trigger a SONY NEX camera to take photos and start/stop video recording remotely with any standard RC TX/RX controller.

Using it couldn’t be any simpler Just plug it into your any of your RX’s AUX channels. Use a 3 position switch to control your camera

Make sure that your camera can see the remote’s LED and that you enable “IR remote” mode from your cameramenu before using this device.  You can find the remote control menu under DRIVE MODES of your Nex5.

The SONY NEX-5n is a great lightweight mirrorless inter-changable lens camera to fly on multi rotor helicopters.

  1. I am trying to set up the FlyTron RC IR Shutter Controller with a Spektrum DX6i, to use my Sony NEX 5R on a X-Pro Heli XP2 quadcopter. So far I’ve not been able to get any response when plugging it into the Aux1 channel (#6). Any suggestions?
    Thanks!, Ric
