By buying this, do I just need to attach the GoPro and go? Or are there any other components needed to use this item?

You need an extra adapter to attach the camera to the pole ! Look for it here in amazon

It includes a camera mount and has everything you need to mount your GoPro to the stick.

Yes but you need to buy the gopro tripod adapter. It converts the gopro mount to a standard tripod mount.

Hi Adam! Our waterproof camera floats work very well with GoPro cameras, I actually just used it recently myself with a GoPro Hero Black 3+ camera and was very happy with the results :-). The attachment process is very simple; in the bottom of your waterproof housing there is a small "steel bar hinge", in the middle of that there is a small opening (just behind the extension connector). Detach the lanyard (bottom part) of the camera float and thread it through the middle of the "steel bar hinge". The attachment process should look something like this http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/71J0dfV3TjL._SL1500_.jpg Wish I was able to upload a video showing it, would be much easier, but unfortunately that's not possible here on Amazon :-/. Please let me know if you need further instructions and I'll try to help you more :-) Have a great day! Henrik / Nordic Flash

Ryan,No, you have to sacrifice extra battery life for the LCD screen. GoPro's can only have one Bacpac accessory attached at a time.

You need the waterproof case. Gopro is same way its only waterproof with case. I own both,gopro and midland. I use my midland 90% of the time,its a great camera

Comparable? It's a pole and the hero 3 is a camera, so no but it's compatible as meant to have the gopro on it. That's what it's for.

Gretchen. Only with the adapter you can buy from GoPro or Amazon. It will not work otherwise. Mark.

never owned a go pro but you can wire any mini cam through splicins as long as it has a rc lack[which I imagine would be a much lighter camera.........

Not sure about a GoProp, but for a GoPro you need a tripod adapter mount. http://www.amazon.com/GoPro-GTRA30-Tripod-Mount/dp/B002RCLYXG/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1406817646&sr=8-2&keywords=gopro+tripod+adapter

you need to purchase Ski attachment kit.Check following Link. or search for Go Pro Surfboard Mounts. http://www.amazon.com/GoPro-Camera-Surfboard-Mounts-ASURF-001/dp/B007K3TK4W/ref=sr_1_16?ie=UTF8&qid=1362683809&sr=8-16&keywords=gopro+accessories

I did not need any addition parts to use this, GoPro mounts directly to it.

You can use the tripod adaptor from optrix and the tripod adaptor from go pro and screw them together with a bolt. I have not done this but it's possible.

You need to purchase a "tripod mount." Price around $7.99 at gopro website or retail store.

It 'works' with all the gopro mounts. And I use the word 'works' loosely cause it will break the first time you use it and your go pro will fall into the water and never be seen again.

You don't need power TO the gopro... You only need video out to the xmitter. search for gopro 3 fpv cable. readymadercdotcom has them. If you have the 3 BLACK, be careful... The video has been known to cut out in mid flight. Then you crash your model. Better off getting a dedicated fpv camera from the above website.

You will need to have the GoPro tripod mount adapter to fasten the GoPro camera to the monopod.

I have a GoPro hero plus black. It just pushes on and has a string teather so you won't loose it
