FPV Flight Controller Setup
FPV camera supports Joystick Control and UART Control. The top left corner of the
screen will shortly display the current control mode. The default is Joystick control
mode. You can switch the mode via below way:
Short the two camera control pins (TX and RX on board as shown in below picture)
Then power on, camera will auto switch between the two modes.
The mode can be saved after power off.
After switching to the desired mode, please unplug the short-circuit cable.
UART Control works with Flight Controllers:
BetaFlight 3.3 or above / ButterFlight 3.4 or above / CleanFlight 2.2 or above

Any available UART interface on the Flight Controller
1. Connect the RunCam Hybrid with the UART interface of the Flight Controller
2. Make the Flight Controller recognize the RunCam Hybrid
For example, we connect the RunCam Hybrid to the UART 5 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 UART 5 (on the Ports tab), select
Camera (RunCam Protocol) and click Save And Reboot.
