Hello,
I am really passionate about FPV. I just love the HD video output of the Go PRO camera. It is small and yields SUPERB video quality, that is -1080p=1920×1080 pixels (16:9), 30 fps.
Unfortunately, this piece of remarkable technology is way beyond my budget. It costs USD $260, which is nearly   12,000...
So, if you know anyone who can get me this camera at a reasonable price, please do inform me !
Thank you

This is the best i was able to find, its on ebay.in global easybuy

Well there is a cheaper option...but not HD unfortunately

But this is made for RC and available in India

this is the 808 keychain camera in a better package and three times the cost

hmm...let me guess...its a CCD camera ?

ohh...its a keychain camera...i did not see that post...forgot to refresh this page... :|

hehehe...i guess you are right  

but i dont like the sound quality of my 808...it really sucks  

But everytime i capture videos, i get the same old buildings, coz we fly at the same location.
Spending 15K is worth, if we go to different locations or use it for different applications too or if we are pros earning some money from it.

So i guess i will stick with my 808 for a while....well thats just me

You can go for go pro 960. Its not full hd but i think its difficult to make out from videos. It comes to 150$ in amazon.
Are you planning this for just video recording of fpv flight or even for simultaneous video out?

go pro 960 does not support video out or any other accessory like piggy back display or 3D hero, moreover when you calculate the total cost including shipping the difference is not that much.

i am also thinking on the same lines, 15k is good cost for that camera but not a good investment for people who fly on the same location every weekend

Oh is it it? it doesnt support video out? i thought even this version supports video out.
Yah its a waste of investment to just take videos of same location. Even I was planning for this one, but as you said I may need to just take videos of just the hokote field always  Its great for those who stay near hilly region and scenic spots.

Here is one more HD option
