Hawkeye Firefly Split 4K FPV camera for racing quads
FPV cameras like the Hawkeye Firefly Split 4K are very practical due to their freedom of installation. While the small (19mm×19mm) lens module can be installed on tight cockpits, the DVR module can be stacked with the other electronic parts.
Like the Caddx Tarsier 4K, the Firefly Split 4K is also capable to record UHD videos with 30 frames per...

CaddxFPV Ratel Pro: Analog FPV isn’t dead (yet)?
Although one of the best manufacturers of analog FPV cameras for a long time, CaddxFPV has joined DJI's digital HD FPV platform, then quickly made another change and focused exclusively on the Walsknail Avatar HD FPV transmission system. Honestly, I was surprised when I read about the release of the Rate Pro camera for the analog FPV systems that...
RunCam Swift Mini FPV camera
RunCam Swift Mini camera for FPV racing quadcopters
Although the RunCam Swift Mini is much smaller than its predecessor, it has the same weight (12g). In my opinion RC should also focus to reduce the weight of their FPV cameras. Currently there are on the market AIO VTX cameras that weight only 4 grams.
Thanks to the wide input voltage range, this RC...

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...
Foxeer Box 4k Superview quadcopter camera
Foxeer Box 4k camera with GoPro Session design
Although I find the "Mobius" design much proper for quadcopters, it seems that all major drone camera manufacturers move to cubic design. Like GoPro Hero, this new Foxeer Box 4k comes with the same compact cubic shape (40 x 40 x 40mm).
Compared to its predecessor (Legend 1), the Foxeer Box 4k camera offers much higher...
