81. Excellent Camera, After Firmware Updates

    Posted by Patrick on 29th Dec 2015

    When I first received the camera 2 weeks after purchase, I was very disappointed. It was pixelated and the audio was extremely scratchy. After reading online and the website I saw I had to do a firmware update for the camera itself. This did the trick and the quality now and then is like night and day. Great product, just wish the update was either already installed or there was a "Warning Firmware Update Required," sign when first opening the camera. Otherwise great camera for FPV.
    
    Follow-up: Hi, thanks for your feedback, we will work on that.

82. Great, but had a hic-up

    Posted by Brian on 23rd Dec 2015

    When I received the camera I couldn't get it to power on without it being connected to an external power source. I had to use a knife and bend the battery's tabs so that they would better contact the camera's terminals.
    Other than that the camera is amazing. I thoroughly enjoy the WiFi connection to my phone because it lets me adjust the setting for the camera on the fly and gives me details of recording time left and battery life.
    It does run a little hot so I'm a little worried about the longevity of the camera if it is continuously used without any airflow to cool it off, but that shouldn't be a problem if it's used as intended.
    Thanks for another affordable and great camera Runcam!

83. Works like a charm

    Posted by Henning Madsen on 22nd Dec 2015

    I bought the run cam 2 for my hobby project - FPV Racing Quadcoptor. Im in the very early fase of collecting parts so i thought i would start with the action cam for my quad.
    
    I have tested it and must say the video quality is very nice. FullHD with 60fps, very impressive. Its easy to turn on and start recording and i think the app is awesome. Turn on the wifi, connect an voila you can adjust settings, look at the recordings etc. I think this will be very handy...
    
    If i should come withe some critics it is that the camera gets hot. Not a "problem" when im going to use it as action cam for my quad (air cooled) but anyway thought i would mention it.
    And the panel for battery and microsd card access is VERY tight. But ok, might not want to let it be to loose :)
    I have tried recording when its a "bit dark" and this i where the camera gets short. The picture gets very noisy but ok, i dont plan to go night flying :)
    
    Overall a very nice camera with impressive image quality!

84. Awesome camera for the price! Can't be beat!!

    Best camera for the price, hands down. Miles beyond the RunCam HD. True 1080p at 60fps, which is perfect for mini racing quads, even the smaller frames. RunCam support is very fast with releasing firmware updates and fixes for whatever issues that are found. They also listen to the community and make requested changes, which is hard to say for most companies.
    
    My only complaint at this time, and I'm sure this will be addressed soon, is the smartphone app. We need all of the camera settings available to change there. Having to hook up A/V out just to change some of the more important options is a bit of a pain. But, like I've already stated, I'm sure this is something that RunCam will fix for us. It shouldn't be difficult to add.
    
    Thank you RunCam for such a great, affordable camera!!

85. Great little camera with tiny flaws

    Posted by Unknown on 21st Dec 2015

    Image quality is nice. Bitrate is high lacks many settings for adjusting quality. Not all options are avaailable for setting without analog output connected.
    But quality is great don't judge by youytube videos... youtube butchers videos with their compression. Quality is really good checkout raw footage for real comparsions. Once you get the hang of operatin g it it's great. Light vesitile. Used both on my road bike and quadcopter.. really nice piece of hardware... and let's hope software will evolve .
    
    Also comes with everything you need av cables external power cables usb cable and tie straps and velcro stickers. additional mount spare protection crown. I'm greatly impressed with this little beauty.
    
    Got very early relase with image quality issue ... within 24h was fixed via firmware update. Great support.

86. Go Pro watch out!

    This is a great lil action cam for its price and image quality, you dont need to go out and spend a few hundred on other cams when you can get what you need out of this cam that costs hundreds less.

87. Awesome Camera

    Posted by Andrew Sharon on 19th Dec 2015

    Best camera to put on your racing quad! Its small and light weight, I would recommend to anybody!

88. new runcam 2

    Posted by Jim on 19th Dec 2015

    well made, app works well for setting up much improved over the first one. bright orange will be hard to lose in the grass.

89. SETUP NOT AS SMOOTH AS HD

    Posted by BUD on 19th Dec 2015

    I FOUND THIS TO BE HARDER TO SETUP AND USE COMPARED TO THE RUNCAM HD. WIFI TRICKY AND HARD TO CONFIG.
    
    Follow-up: Which app did you use, Android or iOS? By saying "tricky WiFi", do you mean the WiFi connection is slow ?
    

90. Great video, made for FPV

    Posted by Jordan M. on 18th Dec 2015

    Camera takes great video at 1080p 60fps. Bright colors and excellent light dynamics. It is lightweight and the attached cradle fits really good on a racing quad. Runcam might have a real winner here. Have not tried AV out but I probably will, to see if the latency is as low as advertised. Wifi app was functional. The overall buttons and interface are minimalistic but that is an advantage on the field.

91. Good quality and price

    Posted by Remus Eserblom on 18th Dec 2015

    Very good quality on the video, nice features and good android app. The firmware added works great with the low light.

92. Perfekt
