I know one can download the runcam 2 app to smartphone, ios or android.
My question is :
Runcam 2 is a bit pricey, is there an alternative ?
 
I have not done any purchases with US sellers for reasons below:
1. Exchange rate. When the rate is applied, it might cost more than buying in Canada.
2. Shipping charge ……. in US$. Amazon.ca offers free shipping, for example.
3. Possible charge of the so-called "import tax/charge"..... in US$.

When taken the above into the equation, I might end up paying more dealing with US sellers.

I'll look form the same model from Canadian sellers.

Thank you.
 
Adding...…..
In Amazon.ca: Foxeer Legend 1 cost more than Runcam 2
Foxeer……….. from $122 to $175.
Runcam 2 ……. $107

If you look on ebay, there are some Legend 2 for about the same price as the RC with free shipping

Just curious, what quad are you using that you want this type of camera?

Well, it is a thought.
I have a Syma x5c-1 which has a camera but just for recording. It is not fpv. No altitude mode, no headless mode. No bell and whistle. Just plain old-fashioned quad.
I have finally managed to fly it with competence. I like it more and more, so much so that I am thinking of installing a fpv cam.

But the Legend isn't an fpv camera. And too heavy for that Syma to handle

That can be a problem.
At the belly of the syma, there is a connector port for the included camera to plug in.
How do I know the port will fit the z02 plug?

And, what is an external 1S battery?
