if you use a different wide angle lens the smo4k nd filter 3d print will work (stock nd filters wont) so you can just make the hole for the lens a little smaller in tinkercad as the hero 7 is a bigger diameter. obviously if you use the rc18g lens then gyroflow will crop the black corners anyway.

I like the video brother but this is so funny to me cause i just built a 3in aluminum armattan rooster prototype and im running a gopro session and a 4s 1300mah lipo on it and it's a 3in quad! total weight with all that stuff is 500 grams exactly and it flys great. and i fly it in 3D mode.

This is some serious tinkering. I do have a dead hero7 laying around and am feeling tempted, even though I know I would end up with not one, but two dead cameras.

Stock lens barrel pops off easy enough if you warm it up. I was just curious :)

Wider FOV has certainly advantages, but narrower FOV seems more cinematic to my eyes.

Wow very good video my friend that hero 7 camera is very good have a great day and a very big greeting from Colombia 😀

Nice info.. and thanks for the tutorial at th end.. im quite happy with rc18g lns for my pure naked thumb pro that i use with my 75mm 1s whoop.. and ratel lens with stock thumb pro chasing.

does the rc18g lens also fits with the stock case? and can you use the counter ring to lock focus?

Really interesting. I've been playing around with trying to hack the runcam pro a bit myself. I found that the original one uses a wider lens mount than the wide. The original one has the smaller view, is that the one you're modding then? Which lens would you suggest to get a wider view and make it more like the -w?

I've been used the caddx ratel lens it's wider like the gopro but it's a lot sharper

I used the caddx ratel lense 1.66, its quite nice

To me it seems like the Thumb Pro almost comes close to being a decent camera for the Good job!

It's pretty crap just.... weight. Also the form factor helps a lot compared to a naked gopro etc as there's less drag. For youtube phone vids on little stuff it does the job.

@@CoppertopFPV Yeah the weight and the form factor is what bothers me about the X-lite. The only reason i was even considering that one is because of the onboard wifi - which makes it super easy to get the footage and decide if i have to make another flight.

nice work

Now that runcam thumb has the wider version i think this mod make no sense anymore. Right?

I've watched the footage quiet a few times, with both lenses, Maybe someone has already commented, But I've slowed the video down to make sure, You don't seem to be wearing a hard hat ? Is this building site? YES... just be safe out there CTFPV... 🙂
