Garry45 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 Hi guys Was just wondering if there is a cheaper alternative to the gopro that's on par?? What makes to look at and who has got a cheaper alternative and are they really any good?? Thinking about getting one to mount on my RC for the summer and fancy some onboard footage,I looked at the gopro and nearly choked on my toast lol. Any links to reviews and your feedback would be great Garry 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capri-boy Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 SJCAM SJ4000, from Banggood uk - make sure you get a genuine one (has the sjcam logo under the lens). About 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capri-boy Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 thanks mate i did come across the SJcam but no absolutely nothing about it so moved onto the next one will look at the reviews but from the look of it it looks a nice bit of kit Garry I'm perpetually hovering over the buy button on one! There's a new version, SJ5000, but no real info out there yet - difference being it has 60fps at 1080 iirc, rather than at just 720. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kkppww91 Posted January 28, 2015 Share Posted January 28, 2015 It's not similar to the gopro but it's another cheap option. I bought mine from hobbyking uk. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
