We now have a release date, and they are taking pre-orders now!

And I bought a Hero 5 black just a few days ago... Gah!! Wonder if it has a mode similar to superview?

Dunno why they call it a 3S when it has a 3.7v LiPo?

Seriously! This may end up on The Japalura! Funny how someone mentioned that it would be nice if I produced some higher quality video

Looks like it's slightly larger that a session. Runcam 40x38x36 on the webpage (40x38x37 according to the manual), Session 38x38x36. So it might not fit in a Session mount. Would be nice if they had made it the exact size. I have 2 working Session 5s so I hope I won't need one for a bit but it's nice to know they will fill the gap left by GoPro.

Looking at the size, it might be something that ends up on The 5" instead. I really only fly the big mini when out and about as the yard is not big enough. This would be great for finally recording some high def!

Getting one to review in a few days time I will let you guys know how it performs!

Thank you Oscar!

The pricing looks good too compared with the session.

Justin Davis has just posted the first video review of the RunCam 3S:-

Image quality wasn't too bad considering the specs.  Hoping Oscar or someone does a comparison to the Session 5....and then Foxeer is coming out with an updated Box Cam in a couple months.  The removable battery is a good feature.  Seems Justin was more interested in reviewing the quad, but it was a good start.  I'm sure Oscar's review will be more scintillating.

Thanks for posting SL.

I had the Runcam version 1.. damn was bad. The battery dies in 7 mins of flight.
so i ended up buying GPS4

Going to let the reviews roll out before I spend money because I just got a session for 70bucks brand new. If it’s good I might use the runcam and keep the session as a backup, they seem to be the same size anyways

Yeah, I just got a Session for 77.00 as well.  The 3S does some things better than the Session even before you turn it on, like a removable battery.  But the 3S camera is only 2MP, and the Session is 8MP....so I agree waiting for the reviews is a good idea.  Then the NEW Foxeer Box will be out soon, and it's supposed to be AWESOME.....

Yeah I might just get the foxybox honestly I like foxeer a picture quality on the Fpv cams a lot, and that might sway my opinion. removAble battery is choice tho
