RunCam MIPI digital FPV camera

RunCam MIPI is an upgraded digital only camera for digital FPV systems. This camera is a successor of the RunCam Racer 4, that received a lot of objections form other manufacturers (Caddx?has accused the?RunCam?of blatantly copying their?Nebula?camera, DJI disapproved also.?Read the whole?RunCam Racer 4?story here).

So as far as we know, RunCam has no license to produce the digital FPV cameras for DJI FPV system, but as long as DJI uses standard MIPI interface, RunCam MIPI camera should work.?

RunCam?has finally obtained the license for producing the products compatible with?DJI Digital FPV system. RunCam has even Air unit, called RunCam Link. See the full list of the RunCam digital products here:?https://shop.runcam.com/digital-fpv-system-categorie/

By default RunCam MIPI camera comes with the?firmware for Digital (DJI) VTX capable of outputting the?1280*720@60fps with a low 32ms latency. This camera can also be used with?special firmware for IoT appliances or?Raspberry Pi?with a OpenHD system (you should send email at run@runcam.com for the firmware).?RunCam MIPI is compatible with any digital HD system that provides standard MIPI interface.

It turns out that RunCam revised the specifications and changed their mind – RunCam MIPI camera does not work with OpenHD, HDZero or other HD systems except the DJI Digital System.?RunCam MIPI FPV camera is also not compatible with FatShark Shark Byte system.

RunCam MIPI camera has 1.8mm lens with?160°?diagonal field of and 16:9 aspect ratio only.
