I think I'll wait until they're actually shipping to place an order. With the date having been pushed back a couple of times who knows if they'll stick with the 10th. The $100 pricetag and great image quality does look attractive though! carl.vegas Current Quads: Operational: Diatone GT2 200 In need of repair: Bumble Bee, tehStein, Slightly modified Vortex 250 • Posts: 73 Threads: 6 Likes Received: 22 in 17 posts Likes Given: 111 Joined: Feb 2017 Reputation: 1 Just pre-ordered mine. I couldnt pull the trigger on the Session because of the price tag. From what I have seen of the test footage it looks pretty good. Aspiring FPV Pilot.

No mount - and Im a dummy and didnt put that in the cart when I ordered a month and a half ago - so now I wait again. Aluminum mount, waterproof mount, spare lens...check. The app seems pretty good compared to some of the others I have seen, so thats a plus - AND you can update the firmware right from the app as well! I dont see 120 FPS (unless that is disguised as Slo-Mo) even with 720p res selected. 1080p and 720p both have 60FPS with variable bitrates. Aspiring FPV Pilot.

Hm did you update it (if there is an update already)? I just remember my runcam2 couldn't do 1080p60 before updating... • Posts: 73 Threads: 6 Likes Received: 22 in 17 posts Likes Given: 111 Joined: Feb 2017 Reputation: 1 (21-Apr-2017, 08:34 PM)fftunes Wrote: Hm did you update it (if there is an update already)?

Dont know if I read that it should have 120 somewhere or if I made that up in my mind now... Aspiring FPV Pilot.

But i've used the Runcam 3 for about 10 sessions now and it's holding up well, no reset or anything. It's still recording after a crash. One time I crashed so hard, landed right on the Runcam 3, it even broke the top plate of the frame, and no harm was done to the camera. The important thing to remember is to use TPU camera mounts for the GoPro session, they really does the trick protecting the cam!
