Hi Thieting, for cheapness I personally have gone for the '808 key fob cam' it gives 720p resolution, about 1.5 hours of battery but i have not tested this, but the most important is it's weight, at only 15 grams ish, go get one on on eBay and have some fun On eBay in the UK they are selling for 10 GBP with a memory card! Just search 808 Key Fob Cam Hope this helps

You can also check out reviews on you tube but I must admit it does not have the best wide angle but for that your going to have to pay more bucks, your choice

I took this video with a keychain camera mounted on battery door facing tail, recorded upside down then used MovieMaker to flip it back over (except for one spot I missed) youtu.be/GPVnQ3wdBjg

Here is a link to one of my videos with the 720p key chain camera I bought off of Ebay for $15. youtu.be/wdYcqrZxRoIThe videos start about 27 seconds in, and I eventually mount it to the bottom of my cub about 1:14 into the video. So you'll get to see 2 perspectives. First, me video taping a plane flying around, then video from the plane. For $15, you can't go wrong. The only thing I don't like about this camera is the "interference" it sometimes gets from being full throttle. You'll see the "waviness" when I launch, but once I am up good, and back off the throttle, it's fine.
