I'm thinking about getting something smaller for the diatone when I get it but was wondering if I am missing something? carl.vegas

Cube+ is 90 bucks on Amazon... that's part of how I became interested. It says it can do 1080p@60 and 720p@120 which is the same as my runcam2. Quality in that video seemed OK... carl.vegas

I need to prove to myself that I can resist purchasing... but I still shop a bit.
I've been thinking about one of these as a camera for the Diatone when it gets here... So I can probably stand at least to wait until it arrives as I don't have any plans of putting a camera mount back on the Vortex for a while so I still only need 1 camera until I get the 3rd quad. carl.vegas

I'd love a shape somewhere in between the runcam2 and the cube form... you know, a little shorter than the 2 and not as high as the 3.

I also wouldn't mind something that comes with or could be accessorized with different angle mounts. I don't have a 3d printer and often the mounts out there for the RC2 just don't fit my needs. carl.vegas

I'm wondering if with names like "transformer" and "split" if they are thinking of making the camera lens be able to adjusted and/or separated from the "box" somehow.

Hm yes, very interesting idea. Possibly wouldn't even need cam mounts then. But also, what if the battery was "split" from the main case, and you could buy a battery size that fits your needs?  |
