I would expect that one to work with a Git2, any Hero 4 cable should work. Not 100% sure you will get both channels correctly though...

It is supposed to work with a Hero4 microphone and so should work with a Hero 4 cable, including stereo, however there does seem to be some incompatibility for some reason. The issue is just the value of the resistor between two pins, or the lack of any resistor in some Hero 3 cables. If you get a Hero 4 cable then it should work, but be prepared to have to try more than one. Gitup have an external mic, but not an adaptor cable.Would need both channels, I wonder if there is a generic option or official Git2 option. (see my updated last post)
This is the connection of miniusb 10 pin :Would need both channels, I wonder if there is a generic option or official Git2 option. (see my updated last post)
Would have to be a custom cable, which is easy if you're already building your own mic adapter.How do you record audio and power the camera at the same time? (only one miniUSB input)

You can use one of the plentiful 12v-to mini USB cables you surely have since you run a dashcam business... Cut off the usb end, solder the + and - to the new jack, then solder the resistor and mic jack to the right pins (pinouts shown above) and that should be it. If I had time I'd make one for you but as it is i still haven't had time to hardwire a dashcam into my new truck... And I bought it in early January.Something has to exist out there, no? I got this to record flight training, and the built in battery isn't going to be long enough. I'm not even sure where to begin to DIY both power and mic into a Y-cable.
Most of the 12V adaptors and most other mini USB cables have 5 pin plugs on the end, you need a 10 pin plug since the microphone input is on pins 6, 7 and 8.You can use one of the plentiful 12v-to mini USB cables you surely have since you run a dashcam business...

Edit- or maybe get a female mini USB jack and add it on instead of the 12v adapter, then you can use anything from a USB power bank or cigarette adapter or whatever else has a USB output.
Good News!
We just got in a test cable that works. It has a secondary female miniUSB port for power, and the audio works. (and records in both Left and Right channel)
