. I haven't had the chance to try it out but so far I'm pleased. Looks like late this evening will be the best time for me to fly. Middle of October in Florida, where I live, still 95 degrees feeling like 101 degrees. No fun to fly when your feeling like a bake potato :lol: Anyway here's the 210 with the new camera.

Thats cool man! A lot of people say the Runcam is superior to the Mobius, so I think you're gonna like it a lot.

I finally had the chance to fly my quad with the new camera and make a video :) My 2 cent on the RunCam 2 WiFi action camera compared to the mobius. Love the color of the RunCam, bright orange, easy to see vs Black and a little dull in color for the mobius. I like the mobius slim and durable design instead of the RunCam box style, plastic whimpy design :lol: . The strap you use to hold the camera down goes to the RunCam. Very nice and solid. The picture quality has to go with the RunCam. It's bright, crisp and wide view is nicer then the mobius view, which isn't bad either. NOW for the sound... the mobius has this hands down :o . The RunCam sounds like your're going through a wind tunnel :( . Everything else is pretty much the two camera are a like. The WiFi on the RunCam works great. The wife is happy that she can watch on her phone now. It's all good TIL she gets motion sickness and it's time to turn the phone off for the time being :oops: So for the price you can't go wrong. Both cameras has there pros and con :? and the price are close. Here's a picture of the 210 and 180 with the RunCam on them. Also a video with my 210

Damn Dog, your piloting skills have come a long way since I last watched one of your videos.
I have been looking for another cam, I may consider one of these.
I can imagine the video quality would have been even better before YouTube got their compression on it too.

Nice one DOG:) loved the speed of re-entry from the trees to the loop gate. See what you mean about the sound, definitely better on the Mobius:)

Update on this camera. Stick with the mobius action camera. This Runcam is nice, bright colors and a sweet picture but man that sound on the runcam is crap. I tried to muffle the speaker many different ways and no luck. If you're going to put music into the video then the camera will work just fine but if not, for the same price, get the mobius action camera instead.

This is off topic but I'd just like to reiterate something that wad said, above.....DOG's flying skill have really progressed by leaps and bounds. He has some great throttle management. Really well done, brother!

After finally finding a way to muffle the sound some I placed the camera on the 180 and took it for a spin. The sound works for me now. Hot glue over the mic. Lol.https://youtu.be/Xa4TrVd_Aho.
