Konfigurimi
Follow these steps to properly set up your RunCam Hybrid 2 camera:
- Instalimi fizik: Mount the 19mm camera module into your drone or vehicle frame. The compact design allows for direct integration into micro FPV setups.
- Lidhjet e instalimeve elektrike: Refer to the wiring diagram below for correct connections.
- VCC+ (5-20V): Connect to a stable DC power source within the specified voltagvarg e. Warning: Do not directly power with a 4S battery or higher, as this can cause overvoltage and damage the camera.
- GND: Lidhu me tokën.
- Video: Connect to your FPV video transmitter (VTX) for analog video output.
- TX/RX: Connect to a UART port on your flight controller for remote control functionality and firmware updates.
- Futja e kartës Micro SD: Insert a formatted Micro SD card (FAT32 format, U3 speed class recommended for 2.7K60/1080P120, U1 for other resolutions) into the designated slot. Ensure the card is inserted correctly to avoid data corruption.

Operative
Once the camera is installed and powered, you can begin operation:
- Ndezja: Apply power to the camera. The FPV feed should appear on your goggles or monitor.
- Kontrolli i regjistrimit:
- Kontrolli manual: Use the Power/Shutter Button on Side A of the PCB to start and stop HD recording.
- UART Remote Control: If connected to a flight controller's UART, configure your Betaflight (or similar) settings to assign a switch on your radio to control recording start/stop.
- Ndërrimi i modalitetit: Use the Mode Switch Button on Side A to cycle through different camera modes or settings if available.
- QR Code Parameter Settings: For advanced configuration, download the RunCam app on your smartphone. Adjust desired settings within the app, generate a QR code, and then scan this QR code with the RunCam Hybrid 2 camera. The camera will automatically apply the new settings.

Zgjidhja e problemeve
If you encounter issues with your RunCam Hybrid 2, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
- No Power/Camera Not Turning On:
- Check all power connections (VCC+, GND) for proper wiring and secure contact.
- Verifikoni që hyrja voltage is within the DC 5-20V range.
- Ensure no short circuits are present in the wiring.
- No FPV Video Output:
- Check the video signal cable connection from the camera to your VTX and from the VTX to your goggles/monitor.
- Confirm that the TV mode (NTSC/PAL) setting on the camera matches your display device. This can be adjusted via QR code settings.
- Ensure the VTX is powered and functioning correctly.
- Recording Errors / Corrupted Files:
- Sigurohuni që karta Micro SD të jetë e formatuar në FAT32.
- Use a high-speed Micro SD card (U3 or higher for 4K/high frame rate recording).
- Try formatting the SD card again or using a different, known-good SD card.
- Check the SD card slot for any debris or damage.
- QR Code Settings Not Applying:
- Ensure the QR code is clearly visible and well-lit when scanning.
- Hold the QR code steady in front of the camera lens until the settings are confirmed.
- Verify that you are using the official RunCam app for generating QR codes.
- UART Control Not Working:
- Check TX/RX wiring between the camera and the flight controller.
- Verify UART settings in your flight controller firmware (e.g., Betaflight) are correctly configured for camera control.
- Ensure the correct protocol is selected in the flight controller software.
