I’ve recently rebuild and modernized my BackPackerHD quad, with some hardware and software improvement.

In early 2018, Runcam extended their Split camera lineup with the Split Mini, bringing HD capabilities to smaller quad. Back then, I was preparing a backpacking trip, and I really wanted to take a drone with me. Because space and weight has to be optimized for this kind of trip, a full size 5″ quad was not an option. So I started looking how to combine this Spit mini camera with the 2.5″ quad hype going on at this time.
