RunCam is launching a new version of the OWL camera. We reviewed the previous version here.
The new version will have the same shape as the Swift and HS1177, so should be compatible with many current mini quad frames... but with the same night vision capability as the OWL
It will also support voltage between 5 - 22V which is more convenient. The current version only supports 3.3V although they do come with a step down regulator for the job.
OSD menu is also added to the camera, allows you to tweak the settings depends on environment and lighting condition.
Summary of changes:
