THE NEW FLYCAMONE HD 720 IS COMING SOON TO MONGREL GEAR!

720p_newmoonThe FlyCamOne HD is the ultimate video camera to share your action.

 

No matter you select the trendy mars-orange or keep it real with the nova-black, take the venus-violet or use the new moon-blue - the FlyCamOne HD 720p is the best choise for all kinds of action sports* and absolutely first selection for RC hobbies!

With the included accessories you will find another 1000 great applications...or more...

As with previous models the FlyCamOne HD 720p has the same great modes...  Video, Photo, Serial Photo and external control as well. The LCD display allows live view of a comfortable menu control. Zoom features included and the 180° Flip lens is fabntastic.  The pivot head can be turned 180° manually. and the standard lens can be exchanged for a 170° Fisheye Lens.

The AV-Out allows you to watch the videos directly on your TV, or on the aditional 2,5" / 63,5mm screen fixed to your wrist or handle bar (helpful when the cam is fixed to your head or helmet and you don't want to miss the live action).

Although it has  great range of features, this thing weighs only 58g!!!

For the RC use there is also an RX cable that will control the recording via the RC Transmitter Set. The servo supported pendulum mount allows movement of the cam!

The AV-out will allow you to connect it to a Video Transmission Set for transmitting (downlink) the Video signal.

*10m Water resistant with the optional available DiveBox!

BE THE FIRST TO GET YOUR HANDS ON ONE OF THESE BABIES!!

COMING SOON!!!

Fat Shark's HD Camera
with onboard recording!

fs-hd1-1Think you have seen it all?  Think again!!  The Fat Shark HD Camera (FS-HD) will change the way you fly FPV. Normally when you fly FPV you would take the video signal from your receiver and push it into some sort of video recorder like a Handy Cam, or digital recording device.  That works fine - BUT - any static that is delivered by the video transmitter will also be recorded by the recorder.  Well imagine being able to record in full 720p, 60fps in beautiful 16:9 wide screen, whilst still seeing a perfect 4:3 image in your goggles.  Well now you can!!

hd1-2The secret here is that the FS-HD records its 720p 16:9 HD video on board to a micro SD card, but at the same time processes the video out to be standard 4:3, so you still get the full screen image in your goggles.  What's more, it will not record any of the static and interference you might get from  your transmitter, as the recording is done onboard and prior to it being transmitted.  How cool is that!!

And just when you think it can't get any better - it does... All of this weighs in at only 38 grams! WHAT??... yes 38 grams!!

 

Recording takes place onboard the plane (720p 60fps) onto a micro SD card.  The recorded HD image is 90 degrees FOV and The AV out is full 4:3 screen for video piloting (no black bars).  The FOV of the AV out is 70 degrees.   The dimensions are 30mm X 90mm.

Below are the answers to some common questions.

  • The largest SD card that the camera can take is 32Gb (theoretical as 32Gb MicroSD is not available yet). successully tested with 16Gb.
  • When card is full, the recording stops. But the camera doesn’t shut down and will maintain AV out (so you can keep flying).
  • 1Gb gives you about 20 minutes. So 8Gb will record about 2.5 hrs. 16GB about 5 hours
  • The camera is currently NTSC. But the software is upgradeable. a release to upgrade and add a PAL/NTSC selection is coming
  • The 4:3 AV is cropped (i.e. it’s the center portion of the 16:9 HD image). The FOV of the AV out is 70 degrees. The FOV of the HD is 90 degrees.

This camera is completely compatible with all video transmitters, and can be used as a stand alone HD DVR.
