Spoiler Alert!
This Cam is not suited for F** as loosely claimed by HobbyKing. It Does not provide live VGA output while recording or supports 'Web Cam' mode wherein you can feed the live (downscale) VGA out put to your Video Tx.

See the review on RCG:

Leave it Saurabh. This HD cam is better discussed here. That Key chain Cam is a different species.

Nevertheless... one more to add to my collection....  :giggle:

From the sample video, i've noticed two things:
1. Lots of skipped frames
2. Poor auto white balance
I still like it but not worth $35 IMO.

Dont wory saurabh. Its always better to have separate cams for recording and av out. Merging both will give unforeseen consequences, as seen in many cases of go pro live recording in rc groups. As your plane is a heavy lifter weight is never a concern to have to cams.

Sample Video. Please watch in HD.  ;)

The video is a bit jittery because the SD card is class 4. I have ordered a 8GB Class 10 Card which should produce much better videos.
See the quality for yourself and make your choice  :thumbsup:

Guess this camera is going to bring you lots of great videos. 

You cannot go wrong if the inaugural shot is of someone taking a leak on the sidewalk :rofl:

This is a nice Exhibit Saurabh! The viewers should be saved from buying a bad SD Card as the current quality is totally unacceptable (<8 fps? ) and totally defies HD capability.
