Description

The RunCam Split 4 combines a high-resolution 13MP Sony image sensor for 4K recording with a dedicated analog video processor for a low-latency FPV feed. This dual-function design eliminates the need for a separate action camera on lightweight builds, significantly reducing weight and complexity. Its power management circuitry is engineered to handle voltage fluctuations common in drone power systems, protecting the recorded video files from corruption during sudden power loss.

Designed for integration, the Split 4 communicates via UART, allowing pilots to control recording, change settings, and access OSD data directly from their radio transmitter through the flight controller. The compact PCB and modular lens design facilitate installation in tight spaces, making it ideal for micro, whoop, and 3-4 inch toothpick drone frames where space and weight are at a premium.

Key Features

  • Dual-Stream Processing: Simultaneously records high-definition video while broadcasting a low-latency analog signal for FPV flying.
  • 13MP Sony Sensor: Captures detailed 4K footage with accurate color reproduction and good dynamic range.
  • Robust Power Design: Integrated voltage regulation and surge protection for stable operation from 2S to 4S LiPo batteries (5-20V).
  • Compact & Lightweight Build: Minimal footprint and weight optimized for micro and nano drone applications.
  • UART Integration: Enables full camera control (start/stop recording, change settings) and OSD data overlay via flight controller.
  • Wide Aspect Ratio Support: Switchable 16:9 or 4:3 FPV output to match different goggle displays.
  • File Protection: Safeguards recorded video files from corruption during unexpected power disconnections.

Applications

  • Ultra-lightweight 65mm-85mm Tiny Whoop builds requiring onboard HD recording.
  • 3-inch and 4-inch Toothpick or micro-long-range FPV drones where saving weight is critical.
  • Compact cinewhoop platforms for indoor or proximity filming.
  • Micro FPV racers needing a combined HD recording and analog live feed solution.
  • Any sub-250g drone build aiming for HD video capture without adding a separate action camera.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the operating voltage range for the RunCam Split 4?

The RunCam Split 4 accepts a wide input voltage of 5-20V DC. This covers direct power from 2S to 4S LiPo batteries. It is crucial to power it from a regulated 5V BEC or a filtered power source on your drone; connecting it directly to the main battery without protection can cause voltage surges that may damage the camera.

How do I control the Split 4 camera settings and recording?

Control is achieved via the UART interface. Connect the camera's UART pins to a free UART port on your flight controller. You can then use Betaflight's Camera Control (IRC Tramp) or similar protocols via your radio transmitter to start/stop recording, change video resolution, and adjust other settings, with feedback displayed in your FPV OSD.

What size drones is the Split 4 designed for?

The Split 4 is specifically designed for compact builds. Its small PCB (29x29mm) and 25.5x25.5mm mounting pattern make it ideal for micro drones, including 65mm-85mm Tiny Whoops and 3-4 inch toothpick or micro-long-range frames where minimizing weight and space is essential.

What is the latency of the FPV feed from the Split 4?

The analog FPV video feed has an average latency of approximately 55 milliseconds. This is suitable for casual flying, cinematic footage, and micro drone racing where ultra-low latency is less critical than on larger, high-speed racing quads.
