            GoPro Hero 12 Not Supported
            
                The GoPro Hero 12 does not have GPS and cannot be used with Race Ninja. We need GPS telemetry to calculate your lap times, speeds, and racing lines.

💡 Good News
                
                    The Hero 12 uses the same batteries and accessories as the Hero 10 and 11. Swapping to a compatible model is straightforward!...

Question 6

My video is stuck on "Processing"

Accepted Answer

Don't worry! Processing times can vary depending on a few factors. Here's what might be happening and what you can do.

Common Reasons for Longer Processing

✓
        Long videos take longer — We process every single frame to extract GPS data and detect laps. A 30-minute session will naturally take longer than a 5-minute one.

✓
        System might be busy — When many users are uploading at the same time, videos are processed in the order they arrive....

Question 7

What cameras are supported?

Accepted Answer

Race Ninja supports GoPro cameras with GPS and the DJI Osmo 360 (with Bluetooth GPS Remote). We rely on GPS telemetry to calculate lap times, speeds, and racing lines, so GPS is essential for all supported cameras.

Question 8

What is a "Perfect Lap"?

Accepted Answer

The Perfect Lap is your theoretical best lap time — it combines the fastest sector times you've achieved across all your laps into one "perfect" lap.

Think of it this way: maybe you nailed Turn 1 in Lap 3, crushed the middle section in Lap 7, and had your best final sector in Lap 5. We take those individual best performances and combine them to show you what time you could achieve if you put it all together in a single lap.

💡 Why this matters: Your Perfect Lap show...
