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.
UART Control works with Flight Controllers:
BetaFlight 3.3 or above / ButterFlight 3.4 or above / CleanFlight 2.2 or above

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.
In the Flight Controller Configurator, navigate to the Modes tab. There are new
CAMERA WI-FI, CAMERA POWER and CAMERA CHANGE modes
Assign any available channel to the function you need, for example:
· CAMERA POWER: start/stop the video. When in the OSD of the camera, this is used to
move to the next menu item.
· CAMERA CHANGE MODE: Switch between the recording mode and the QR code
setting mode.
· Assign the AUX2 to the CAMERA POWER, range 1900-2100
· Assign the AUX3 to the CAMERA CHANGE MODE, range 1900-2100
Please choose your Model on the controller, then access to the MIXER interface and
assign the channel to the switch of the controller. Take opentx 2.2.0 for example, assign
the channels CH5, CH6 and CH7 to SA, SB and SD respectively
Power the Flight Controller and the RunCam Hybrid
· Set the SA to the bottom, the camera starts/stops the video
· Set the SD to the bottom, the camera switches among the two modes:
video and OSD setting mode
