Heimvision HMD2 review: Self-powered IP camera
To be honest, firstly I wanted to say pass for Heimvision’s proposal regarding the possibility to test and review their products. I considered that wireless WiFi IP cameras are out of FirstQuadcopter niche. After I checked the specs and features of Heimvision HMD2, I found it helpful for many jobs. Being 100% wire-free, it can be installed easily everywhere,...
RunCam HD camera: Born for RC fanatics
Having many quadcopters it's very hard to find a camera that fits all models, especially in terms of weight. With only 41g, the RunCam HD camera seems suitable for most of my Quads. Thanks to the low weight and aerodynamic form factor that firstly was introduced by Mobius and after that adopted by other manufacturers like RunCam, you can...
Xiaomi Yi 2 camera in-depth review
Yesterday, out of curiosity I searched with Google for "Xiaomi Yi 2 review". The results were pretty impressive. I found plenty of professional articles about this camera. Most of the reviews have concluded that the Yi 4K is an excellent action camera with superior image quality.

Caddx Vista Nebula Nano kit review: Lighter but not better
The CaddxFPV Vista Nebula Nano is the most affordable and probably the lightest HD digital transmission system compatible with the DJI FPV goggles. With a total weight of just 24 grams, it can be installed on compact FPV drones. You can also find it in pre-build systems such as the BetaFPV Pavo30 CineWhoop.
Caddx is the only company licensed by...
Eachine DVR03 review: Camera, VTX, Antenna and DVR
Eachine DVR03 FPV camera with integrated DVR (video recorder)
At first, impression, adding video recording feature to an FPV camera sounds very good. Using the Eachine DVR03 camera you will not need any additional device to capture the journey of your flight. Yes, this is great, but think about you crash on a river and your videos are gone.
Over the last...
Eachine C600T review: Super mini FPV camera
When it comes to micro drones, it is very hard to find a camera that is small and light enough to fit in. Measuring 15 x 15 mm and weighing only 4.09 grams, the Eachine C600T camera can be lifted by very small drones.
At the moment, basically, there are two approaches in the design of FPV cameras, "all-in-one" (one device,...
Eachine TX01 and TX02 micro FPV camera review
A few weeks ago, when I reviewed Eachine's first AIO FPV camera, I was surprised by its small size. Now they did it again, the Eachine TX01 and TX02 are even smaller. These two new FPV cameras are specially designed for small brushed drones. Through the TX01 FPV camera, it seems that finally Eachine managed to offer a direct competitor for the popular FX797T...
Eachine TX01S camera review: Good range, Flexibility in mounting
The Eachine TX01S camera is specially designed for mini FPV drones like the TinyWhoop where space and weight is critical. Due to its modular design, the TX01S VTX camera can also be successfully used on low-profile aircraft.
At first look, except for the nice price tag, the most significant advantage of this combo camera over purchasing separately a camera and 5.8G VTX is...
