Foxeer Legend 1 - Comparison

by ycopter | November 16, 2015 | (8) Posted in Reviews

The new Foxeer with 1080p at 60fps in the form factor of the Mobius - it should be the ideal camera for small aircraft, see how it performs against the following:

  • GoPro Hero 3 Black Edition.
  • Mobius
  • Xaiomi Yi

I would like to hear your comments and views on the Foxeer, in particular how close does it come to the quality of the GoPro and other cheaper action cameras.

I noticed some pixilation. Was this from the cameras or from YouTube?

Hello Flyerguy, almost certainly from YouTube, the compression from all of the cameras is acceptable in the raw video. I find that YouTube struggles with complex and fast moving scenes, if you can view it at 1080 60fps that helps a bit. Different browsers can also produce different results, try an alternative browser, you might find an improvement in the YouTube stream.

Thanks so much. I kind of figured that it was artifact from YouTube. Looks like the pricing is about the same for this cam vs. a Mobius. Which did you prefer?

I prefer the Foxeer over the Mobius, much smoother video quality. It will be interesting to see what improvement the Mobius V2 brings.

So pleased to have your positive feedback, I'm looking forward to a weather window when I can film part 2. I plan to fly all of the cameras simultaneously to get a true in-flight comparison.
