This video compares two video cameras; the Vado HD and the Staypro 45G HD from Nitroplanes. The video is broken up in segments alternating from one camera to the other. The Vado color is more vivid. There is a lot of motion in the video because I was staying over the church parking lot which caused me to make almost continuous turns. The draw back is you could get sick watching this video. I was surprised to see that the Staypro seems to have a sharper image although you can see that it does not focus in close ( the nose is out of focus and when the plane lands the near grass is also out of focus. I like both cameras. The Vado has a viewing screen and weighs 100 gm. The Staypro has no screen but is lighter coming in at 37 gm. The plane used for the test is a Hawk Sky from Nitroplanes. The ailerons are not very effective but it is easy to enlarge them which I will do. One short-coming I found with the Staypro is the switches operate sporadically. I haven't been able to download from the Staypro either. I've had to remove the chip and download it.
been deciding whether i should buy this... thanks for helping

@tstehler1 In all fairness to the cameras I was making a lot of tight turns and as a result the video is not clear. Both cameras work pretty good when you can fly straight for some distance and keep the turns shallow.
