The total weight of the camera, ND filter and the power supply cable is 10.3 grams.
The microSD card must be installed in the slot which can be accessed by removing the back cover. The recommended microSD card speed rating should be 10MB/s or faster (Speed Class 10, UHS Speed Class U1, Video Speed Class V10 or better). Refer to the chart below for SD card selection.
There is no detent or any other support for correctly inserted card, you just need to push the card until it stops, look at the example below.
The microSD card cover is somehow loose and can come off right in the middle of the flight. It is recommended to fix it with piece of tape.
All camera settings can be accessed and changed by altering the configuration file [thumb.conf] located on the SD card.

RunCam Thumb has built in gyro and can record gyro data alongside the video recordings. The gyro data is stored in the separate files with *.gcsv extension. You can stabilize the video footage with GyroFlow software.
Download Gyroflow from here: https://github.com/gyroflow/gyroflow/releases
Open (or gust drag and drop) video file and gyro motion data file into the GyroFlow software.
Select the RunCam Thumb lens profile for barrel distortion correction.
Press “Auto sync”
Hit the “Export” button and GyroFlow will render the stabilized video file.
Below is an example of raw video file recorded by RunCam Thumb and stabilized with GyroFlow.

]]>Inside the Firefly X Lite camera there are the same electronics as in the full sized Firefly X camera –? SONY IMX377 12 Mega WDR CMOS sensor with Ambarella H22S85 chipset. So the recordings quality should be similar to the?Firefly X camera. You can find a lot of examples on the YouTube.
Camera is capable of recording in 4K resolution in 60 frames per second. It also records in 2.7K/60fps, 2.5K/60fps and
Firefly X Lite camera comes with a standard GoPro style mount.
Camera can be powered on by supplied battery to USB-C type adapter or by separate 5V cable.
Key Features:
Button functions:
Operating instructions:
Use the 5V power supply on the drone to supply power to the camera, and then press the power button to turn on the camera, and the buzzer will ring three times quickly. When the camera is turned on, the default resolution of the camera is 4k 60 frames. If you want to switch the resolution, you can press and hold the Record Button for 3 seconds to switch. The switching?array??is: 4k 60 frame (two beeps of the buzzer) / 2.7k 60 frame ultra wide angle (three beeps of the buzzer) / 2.5k 60 frame on anti shake (four beeps of the buzzer). If the camera needs to flip 180 degrees to install, press the power button for 3 seconds after the camera is turned on, the camera will turn on the image flip function. After the camera is turned on, press the power button briefly to turn on the WiFi function, and then use the mobile phone to connect with the FIREFLY app. You can set camera time and parameters, preview and download videos.

The updated functions in Firmware V2.0 (2021-10-12):
1, WDR enhancement function is added and opened by default;
The whole image quality has been greatly improved!
2, The synchronous output of gyro data in CSV format is added,
which can be used for computer post stabilization processing;
3, The resolution of 2.7k60/30fps 4:3 and 1920 * 1440p60/30fps
4:3 are added.
4, The four resolutions switched by pressing the key are 2.5k60fps
EIS on; 1440P 4:3; 4K30FPS Ultra; 2.7K30FPS 4:3; The last three sets
of resolutions will automatically output gyroscope data;
5, Put the Lite_ config file in the root directory
of the card to facilitate setting camera parameters with the TF card
6, If the card is inserted and there is no video recording, it will
beep twice every 6 seconds to prompt the user to start the video
recording before taking off!
7, Add the function of USB port external parameter adjustment AV
board; Subsequently, firefly cam will launch a parameter
adjustment AV board, which can connect FPV glasses for intuitive
viewfinder and parameter adjustment.
8, By default, the dual file function is enabled. When recording,
two videos with the same content will be generated, A and B. the B
video file is very small, which is used to watch on the Firefly app to
increase the video playback fluency.

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.
