3. Setup uye Kuiswa
This section guides you through the basic setup and installation of your RunCam Nano2 FPV camera.
3.1 Component Assembly for FPV System
To create a head-tracking FPV system for an RC car, you will typically need FPV goggles, an FPV camera (like the RunCam Nano2) with a Video Transmitter (VTX), and a 3-axis gimbal. The camera is attached to the gimbal, and the gimbal is then connected to the VTX. A custom 3D-printed base can help integrate all components securely.

3.2 Kuisa kamera
The RunCam Nano2 is designed for easy integration. Use the provided screws to secure the camera to your drone frame or custom mount. If using an adapter for larger mounting patterns, ensure it is securely fastened.
3.3 Wiring Connections
Connect the camera's wiring harness to your flight controller or VTX according to the pinout diagram provided with your flight controller/VTX. Ensure correct polarity for power (DC 3-5.5V) and video signal to prevent damage.
3.4 Head Tracking Activation (for compatible systems)
If your FPV goggles and gimbal system support head tracking, activate this feature within your goggles' menu. This allows the camera's view to follow your head movements, enhancing the immersive FPV experience.
4. Operating Instructions
Once installed and powered, the RunCam Nano2 will transmit video in NTSC format. Ensure your FPV goggles or monitor are set to NTSC to receive the correct signal.
4.1 First Person View (FPV) Operation
The camera provides a wide 155° FOV, offering an expansive view for navigating your FPV drone or RC vehicle. The Auto D-WDR and Auto Gain Control features help maintain clear image quality across varying light conditions.

5. Kuchengeta
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your RunCam Nano2 FPV camera.
- Kuchenesa Lens: Gently clean the camera lens with a microfiber cloth and a specialized lens cleaning solution. Avoid abrasive materials that could scratch the lens.
- Kutariswa Kwekubatanidza: Periodically inspect all wiring connections for looseness or damage, especially after crashes or rough handling.
- Kuchengeta: Store the camera in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use. Protect the lens from direct impact.
6. Kugadzirisa matambudziko
If you encounter issues with your RunCam Nano2, refer to the following common troubleshooting steps:
- Hapana Chiratidzo cheVhidhiyo:
- Verify all power and video connections are secure and correctly wired.
- Ensure your FPV goggles/monitor are powered on and set to the correct NTSC signal system and frequency.
- Check for damage to the camera cable or VTX.
- Poor Image Quality (Blurry, Jello Effect, Color Issues):
- Check if the lens is clean and free from smudges or debris.
- Ensure the lens is properly focused. The lens can be rotated to adjust focus.
- A "jello effect" can sometimes occur with CMOS sensors due to vibrations. Ensure the camera is securely mounted and isolated from excessive vibrations.
- Verify power input is stable and within the specified DC 3-5.5V range.
- Kamera Haisi Kubatidzwa:
- Confirm the power source is providing the correct voltage (DC 3-5.5V).
- Check for any short circuits or damaged wires in the power line.
