The Caddx Turtle V2 camera is a new take on the popular runcam split FPV camera. Just like the split, this is both an HD and FPV camera built into one. Just like the runcam split,, the turtles has a main PCB and a separate camera. But the caddx turtles has the ability to stack the camera and PCB’s together to form an integrated camera which is helpful on builds that do not have much space in the stack.
Whats new in V2
- New Turbo Eye lens
- Refined PCB layout with 20x20mm mounting holes – no offset hole!
- Microphone
- Wrapped cable
- Default image setting an bit-rate improvements

Jason Cross –
Recently built the Acrobrat and really wanted to try the Caddx split style cam, the connection from the cam to the board seems really durable compared to ribbon style connectors and setup was a breeze with nearly any option available to change like format, quality & position of the cam etc. Having one board makes fitting easier albeit you can only secure with 3 standoff’s due to the 4th being off set. Would of liked the cam control feature to work on stick commands but that might come in a firmware update (also very easy) and the nuts provided where round so it’s easier to mount the standoff’s before mounting to the frame. Yealds great footage with barely noticeable lag compared to my other FPV cams.

Its a nice and small camera with decent performance and for me – no noticable lag. What I really dislike is the size of the board and its mounting. I was unable to mount it in a Floss 2 frame and its impossible to mount it on a 30×30 stack as well as 20×20 M3 stack.
