🚁 FPV Drone Enthusiast Reviews

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Alex Turner - Drone Racing Hobbyist
"I’ve been flying FPV drones for over two years, and the RunCam THUMB Mini Camera has completely transformed my footage. The 1080P at 60FPS is crisp, and the Gyroflow stabilization makes my high-speed runs look cinematic. At just 9.8g, it doesn’t affect my drone’s agility at all."

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Jordan Lee - Custom Drone Builder
"Integrated this camera into my latest 5-inch freestyle build, and the results are stunning. The 150-degree field of view captures so much action, and the lightweight design keeps my center of gravity balanced. Mounting was a breeze thanks to the flexible bracket system."

🎥 Aerial Content Creator Reviews

⭐⭐⭐⭐☆ Maya Patel - Freelance Videographer
"I use the RunCam THUMB Mini for creative low-altitude tracking shots. The smooth stabilization helps me get professional-looking footage without post-processing. It does heat up a bit during long sessions, but that’s expected for its size. Overall, a solid performer for the price."
