Camera
At the request of the customer, the WLToys V303 Seeker can be equipped with two camera options: 1080P Mobius camera (using a rigidly fixed gimbal on dampers) and HD Giro Camera Phantom Vision (the gyro-stabilized camera gimbal has height adjustment via buttons on the transmitter). The quality of the shooting of both cameras corresponds to the declared characteristics. However, the quality of the shooting is spoiled by the presence of "jelly", indicating the insufficient effectiveness of the dampers of the stock 1-axis suspension.
