When my V2 RotorX Atom broke (frame cracked at an arm) I was looking for a replacement that was capable of carrying HD video. At the time, I had no GoPro Session's and there weren't a whole lot of options for a 3in build that could carry HD footage. I had seen the original Runcam Split, but the conclusion was that it was garbage. About that same time the V2 split came out and it solved a lot of the complaints from the V1, and I also heard about a frame called the Split Shark from Falcon Multirotors. This is an excellent little frame, and I've had a lot of fun flying it. Here are some videos that I put together with the split shark!

With a naked GoPro or the SMO 4k you can capture some great stabilized footage. In this guide I'll show you..

No jello! How? One of the smoothest 3" video I have seen! Nicely done! 👍
Those videos were done before i put the TPU canopy on. I did that to get more camera tilt, but it caused there to be a lot of vibration and rolling shutter. With the camera hard-mounted it was pretty unsusceptible to jello. A good tune helps too ;-)
That's the problem with the split cameras and 3" drones. Anything could make video crappy. And then you have to have a good tune! 🙄 Who's got time for that! 😁
