Make the Flight Controller recognize the RunCam Split 2

For example, we connect the RunCam Split 2 to the UART 3 interface on the Flight Controller: connect the Flight Controller to the computer, then open the configurator software of the Flight Controller. (Open up the configurator that matches the firmware you are running, Betaflight Configurator for Betaflight, Cleanflight Configurator for Cleanflight). In the Peripherals column of the line UART3 (on the Ports tab), select RunCam Device and click Save And Reboot.

Make the Flight Controller recognize the RunCam Split 2
