Hawkeye 4K Thumb camera
When it comes to compact CineWhoop-style FPV drones is quite changing to install a full-size GoPro camera due to its heavy weight.

By comparison, the Insta360 GO 2 weights 26.5g and records...

iFlight GOCam PM G3 4K@60fps drone camera

Photo of iFlight GOCam PM G3 camera
Flight advertises their GOCam PM G3 as an action camera which is it's a little overkill. Without a rugged case and built-in battery, I wouldn't call it like this. Similar to the Naked GoPro and SMO 4K, they kept only the essential parts of the camera, limiting its usability. The iFlight GOCam PM G3 measures 64.7*45*31.3mm and weighs just 37...

RunCam 3S camera for FPV drones

RunCam 3S camera
Last year, RunCam announced a new GoPro Session alike camera, which was shortly withdrawn from the US market due to some patent infringement. Curiously, this new RunCam 3S features also similar cubic design but it has straight lines instead of rounded lines. Not a big change, so I hope that will last more on the market compared to its predecessor. While...
