Amazing durability and great video.

Excellent action camera, amazing durability and video quality. The sound isn't the best, but I edit my video with music. I have bought 2x from this seller, both were in original packaging and in perfect condition. I cracked the case in a bad accident but contacted Runcam and got a new case and lens glass for $15. It still works perfectly. The other self fell and fell into a 4 foot hole with a foot of water. It sat there for 10 minutes before I could get it out. After opening and drying with a…

I bought it to replace my Session 5.NO.

I've had two GoPros for years Session and Session 5 Session 5 was weird when I first bought it and it only got worse in two years of ownership. even record ten seconds no matter what I'm doing. Runcam looks good. If it actually works out of the box it does the same thing as a GoPro I bought to replace so I don't know what to do. I can't tell you how many SD cards I've used and how many times I've formatted and reformatted them. I was hoping this would be a better replacement. but I just can't…

  • Durable finish
Cons
  • Not bad

Holy cow, this thing can take a beating!

Wow! I love this little fpv camera! I'll buy another one if mine ever dies or fails, but you know what?!?!? I can't kill that thing lol. I've nailed this sucker to trees, cement walls, hard ground, grass, dirt, myself. and everything is over. I will confess that in one of my very, very unfortunate accidents (an engine dismembered 4 propellers and smashed its own frame mid-flight) this idiot fell out of the sky from about 300 feet and survived. Believe it or not, my SD card is split in half…

Pros
  • The best

Camera specs in manual are wrong

I tested the camera today and captured a minute long video at each of the framerate and bitrate settings. I set it to high quality. I then checked each video file on my Windows 10 computer by right-clicking on the file and checking the properties. Click the Details tab. The bit rate in each file was significantly lower than advertised. For example, the manual says 1080p at 60 fps captures detail at 45 Mbps. It actually only records at 26Mbps, a lot less detail, giving a much poorer video. The…

Pros
  • Satisfied for now
Cons
  • Low maintainability

That's funny Amazon asked me for a review when they were doing what I bought a few months ago and for a number of reasons some poorly listed but I really don't just started using runcam 5 apart from some setups i wanted to have this option for FPV fixed wing planes and some multirotor quadcopters but even for the ones i use this camera i don't really need it because i am amazing get recordings. if you want 4k over 760 or 1080 of video footage. Other than that, it's not a huge quality…

Pros
  • Few competitors
Cons
