Not all SD cards are equal.
You must use quality SD cards to maintain a high capture rate on any camera.
Most cameras and applications require a minimum of class 3 (U3 ~ 100mb/s) card or better.
Not all brands of SD cards are the same, even with the advertised class ratings. If you have problems with a specific manufacturer, try a more reputable maker for your next drone flight.
You can use the tool below to format SD cards for Sentera cameras.
All SD Cards used in Sentera cameras must be formatted in FAT32.
Sentera Single must have a card with a capacity of less than or equal to 32GB.
Sentera Double 4K must have a card with a capacity of less than or equal to 64GB.
If you exceed the capacity requirements above, the camera will fail to boot or take photos correctly.
If your card is too big, it will not work.
If the card is not formatted in FAT32, it will not work.
SD cards that are used in DJI cameras should be formatted using their companion app.
