Here’s a first look at the new Runcam HD V2 action camera designed specifically for FPV and RC model use.
The good:
– very quiet on the UHF band
– removable battery
– can be configured and settings changed without a computer
– 1440p at 30fps and 1080p at 60fps
– digital image stabilization
– image flip
– surprisingly low latency on the live video feed
– Wifi capable (when the app arrives)
– will run on 2S to 4S external power
– microphone response tailored for flight video requirements
– plenty of accessories
– microSD card wont’ pop out in a crash due to its location in battery compartment.
The not-so-good
– motherboard/daughterboard construction may be less crash-resistant
– case color is a bit dull so may be hard to find if lost in the grass.
– battery cover needs to be removed to access microSD card
Stay tuned for the flight footage (including high-speed low-level flying which will really test the quality of video compression).
And watch for the Runcam HD2 versus Foxeer Legend 1 shootout.
