The Vanover camera is the perfect Micro FPV camera for those looking to race and freestyle! Based off of the very popular RunCam Micro Sparrow 2, the Vanover camera takes the clear and colorful picture of the Sparrow, and combines it with the fully enclosed case of the Racer 2, to make a very durable camera, that is yet light and has a beautiful image. To make things even better, the camera comes with CaptainVanovers favorite settings preinstalled!
Check out what Alex has to say about it below!
It’s here everyone! I have always been a huge fan of the RunCam Micro Sparrow 2 camera! It was the camera I used for racing last fall, and at the MultiGP Championships this year, because it simply had the best image out of any micro FPV camera on the market!
The colors on it appear more natural than on any other camera - including the RunCam Racer 2 - and the latency also feels much lower compared to every CCD camera I have ever used. It is also the only camera I have tried that seemed to have the best presets for running in low light on LED tracks, which is a super important tool to have for racing.
I’m super happy to have worked with runcam and Rotor Riot to bring back the Micro Sparrow 2, but we decided to add a protective shell like the Racer 2 and load up my personal settings as well. If you are looking for your next micro FPV camera, consider giving this a shot!
