I saw this yesterday and was going to post. Looks interesting and if they can keep it crazy cheap then they have a winner on their hands.

Someone made a "guestimate" that it would be $119 USD. I don't know where that figure came from or if it was just plucked from the air, but RunCam have stated that it will go on sale tomorrow (or today in some parts of the world), so I guess we'll find out the actual price in the next few hours.

It's up at Runcam already, listed for $89.99. If the quality is half decent I think it will sell extremely well.

Here's an "early" review (skip ahead to 9:30 for flight footage):


Edit: RunCam just released their official video:

Looks well made but I have not seen any of the videos yet.

Settings from the config app, in case anyone is curious! Looks pretty similar to the Runcam 5 Orange settings, and includes useful stuff like flat colour profiles, lockable shutter and non-auto white balance.

I'm really interested in this one.

The ground is for dead people.

I wonder if it will capture full sensor in that crappy 4:3 stretched mode that needed your cool little derperview app to fully realise the view!

Wow this thing sold out really fast. Did anyone here get one and wanna share their impression?

I just couldn't get myself to pull the trigger even though it is practically made for sub250. After 2x Thumbs and a poorly planned Peanut purchase that remains in its packaging, just couldnt do it.

Yea I couldn't resist ...

Caddx Peanut (without dumb harness)  27.7g
Go2  26.5
SMO 4K  31.4
Thumb 2  16.5
Thumb  9.8

I picked up 2.  Luckily I got the Peanut on serious discount so I think I can actually make a few bucks off it.  I'll likely also let go of the SMO 4K although the picture quality in that is really superb (but I may also be able to make a few bucks on that too).  But man 15g savings is no joke!!   Thumbs Up

I'll be keeping my 2 thumb v1's though because 10g is about as good as it gets for micro builds.

Yea most places that got it early sold out pretty quick like Defiance and RDQ. Pyro got theirs late so figured it must have been a sign for me to pull the trigger lol. $90 each actually. I decided to get crazy and get a set of the ND filters too.

[edit] Shoots, I got the last ones from Pyro sorry to the next guy. Sad

Can you power it from tiny 1S Lipo.. ie 500mah?
Alternatively would 2x LiFePo4 work? (6.6V)

Bardwell mentioned using this to power it: https://www.getfpv.com/iflight-type-c-to...egree.html

Cut the 5v output side off it and splice in the wire that comes with the Runcam pro.

The iFlight USB-C/balance plug cable only supports 4S-6S.
