3.2. Povezave ožičenja
The RunCam Nano 4 uses a standard 3-pin connector for power and video. Refer to the labels on the camera's PCB or the main product image for correct pin assignments:
- Red Wire (3.3-5.5V): Connect to a stable DC power source within the specified voltage range. A 5V source is recommended.
- Črna žica (GND): Connect to the ground (negative) terminal of your power source.
- Yellow Wire (Video): Connect to the video input of your FPV video transmitter (VTX).
Ensure all connections are secure and correctly polarized to prevent damage to the camera or other components.

4. Navodila za uporabo
Once installed and powered, the RunCam Nano 4 will automatically output video. No complex configuration is typically required for basic operation.
- Vklop: Connect your drone's battery. The camera will power on with the drone's flight controller and VTX.
- Verify Video Feed: Turn on your FPV goggles or monitor and tune to the correct frequency of your VTX. You should see the live video feed from the RunCam Nano 4.
- PAL/NTSC Switching: The camera supports both PAL and NTSC video systems. This setting is usually switchable via a small button or OSD (On-Screen Display) control if available on your flight controller or VTX. Refer to your flight controller/VTX manual for specific instructions on how to switch video formats.
- Adjusting Lens Focus: The lens may have a focusing ring. If the image appears blurry, gently rotate the lens ring until the image is sharp. Secure it with a small amount of thread locker if necessary.
5. Vzdrževanje
Proper maintenance ensures the longevity and optimal performance of your RunCam Nano 4 FPV Camera.
- Čiščenje leč: Regularly clean the camera lens with a soft, lint-free cloth to remove dust, dirt, or smudges that can degrade image quality. Avoid abrasive materials.
- Preverjanje povezave: Periodically inspect all wiring connections for any signs of wear, fraying, or loose contacts. Secure any loose connections.
- Varstvo okolja: While durable, avoid exposing the camera to excessive moisture, extreme temperatures, or direct impacts.
- Sensor Cleaning (if applicable): If your drone's flight controller has optical flow or laser sensors near the camera, gently wipe them with a clean, dry cloth after any replacement or maintenance to prevent dirt from affecting altitude hold functions.
6. Odpravljanje težav
If you encounter issues with your RunCam Nano 4, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Težava | Možen vzrok | rešitev |
|---|---|---|
| Ni video vira | Incorrect wiring; insufficient power; faulty VTX; incorrect FPV goggle frequency. | Check all wiring connections (power, ground, video). Ensure power supply is within 3.3-5.5V. Verify VTX is powered and functioning. Tune FPV goggles to the correct VTX frequency. |
| Dark or poor image quality | Insufficient lighting; lens dirty or out of focus; camera settings (if adjustable). | Ensure adequate lighting. Clean the lens. Adjust lens focus. Check if the camera's Day/Night mode is appropriate for current lighting. |
| Jello effect or vibrations in video | Drone vibrations; loose camera mount. | Ensure the camera is securely mounted. Check for loose drone components or unbalanced propellers that may cause vibrations. |
| Kamera se ne vklopi | Nepravilna voltage; reversed polarity; damaged cable. | Preverite vnos voltage is within 3.3-5.5V. Double-check wiring for correct polarity (Red to +, Black to -). Inspect the cable for damage. |
