BEST FOR LESS: Runcam Micro Swift - Overview & Mounting (feat. Runcam Swift Mini)
CMOS vs CCD sensors is a big discussion and (up until now) unnecessary. The weight penalty of using a CCD based camera in our micro quad builds has been the main reason why CMOS board cameras and FPV AiOs have been our "eyes" while flying for so long.
This ends now. The Runcam Micro Swift packs the quality and light handling of much heavier CCD cameras into a very small package.
At 5.5g it may lack a complete housing but makes it (currently) the best choice for a small, lightweight quad, especially when combined with a light VTx board.
This changes how we build and enjoy micro sized flyers and hopefully bring more products like this to the market.
If you are mostly flying larger quads, you may not like it that much. It does not have voltage monitoring on the OSD and it will not directly fit most frames without a separate mount (which is not included). But if you were looking to vastly upgrade your mediocre-in-tricky-light-conditions CMOS cameras and improve the flight experience significantly, this is the way to go.
Consider yourselves warned: the Micro Swift kicks a$$!
