Interesting! I'm interested to see what the quality of this little camera is. If it's good, this is way better than a GoPro sitting on top of a quad. And also the price. I'm much less worried about losing $50 vs $500! Keep us posted.

Well the camera came in today :). It's diffidently not a go pro but it's suppose to be 1080/60fs. Light as hell. Made my quad 25gs lighter :). The camera mount is cheesy but I spot weld it with hot glue to snug it up a bit. The camera probably won't survive a freestyle crash but it will work wonderful for a cuisine around quad like I'm going to use it for. I'll use my other runcam action camera on my freestyle quad. I didn't have the chance to try it out but tomorrow is a different day. I'll post back with a video and my :2c: on this camera. So far for the price you can't go wrong especially if you loose the quad for some strange reason.

I had the chance this morning to try out the new Runcam Thumb. I have to say Oh Wow I'm impress with the quality of the recording. It's 1080/60fs for sure. Very light weight and it will give the peanut camera or go pro a run for it's money. For $50.00 They already raise the price I would recommend this camera vs $200/$300 even $500 Go pro. The go pro is solid and would withstand a crash better then the Runcam Thumb but if you don't crash or end up losing your quad your only out $50 bucks if you do. Video to come between my Thumb vs my other Runcam action camera :).
