RunCam Night Cam Prototype

The camera requires a 5V DC power supply, delivered via a Molex 2P 1.25mm connector. It draws approximately 400mA under normal operation, making it compatible with standard 5V BEC outputs from most flight controllers or standalone voltage regulators.

The camera outputs 2.7K resolution MP4 video at a variable frame rate between 3 and 30 fps, which adjusts automatically based on conditions. Video data is transferred via the integrated USB Type-C port, which can be connected to a video capture device or potentially configured through companion software.

While the camera features a high-sensitivity 32000 e-/Lux-sec sensor optimized for low-light conditions, it does not have built-in infrared LEDs as described in some Generic text. Its performance in complete darkness would depend on any available ambient light (starlight, moonlight). For pitch-black environments, an external IR illuminator would be required.

The product listing does not specify a standard mounting pattern. Integration would typically require designing or 3D printing a custom bracket that secures the compact camera body to your drone's frame, ensuring the lens has an unobstructed view. The rugged build is designed to withstand vibrations and minor impacts common in UAV flight.
