Cheap GoPro alternative
Hey guys... and girls. It has been a long time and I am finally getting back into RC Cars after a few years off.
I have been looking for a cheap alternative my GoPro to use in my RC truck. Any ideas? what have you been using?
I found this camera and thought it was cheap enough to try. I dont want to wreck my GoPro and its too large, I have the Hero4.
Any experience using something similar to the link above?
Thoughts or suggestions are appreciated.

I use my phone for most video. I do use this one for on board video sometimes

Sport DV F9 is the name. Picture is very good. Sound not great. Doesn’t have much range.
Here’s an on board. First 1:40 is my old IPhone6. Then the other camera video plays.
this was done in past week. More to show how an app worked.

I’m curious about the one you linked to. Seen it before on eBay, forgot how small it was.
Never really tried to mount mine inside. Thought about it, but roof was quick and easy for what I’ve used it for so far.

It's an interesting alternative. I hadn't seen it before.
