The new Insta360 Go 2...
This tiny new action camera has been getting a lot of rave reviews.
So I bought it hoping it maybe a good option to mount on lightweight FPV quads, buuuuuut then I tested it... :(
It is not a terrible camera, but I do get terrible results for FPV. I mounted it on three different quads, in a multitude of different ways, but I had jello issues every single time.
Handheld it is great.
Great stabilisation, pretty good image quality, lightweight and easy to use.
Just don't buy it for FPV unless you quad has a perfect tune and a amazing vibration dampened mount.
I put it side by side with my hero 8 black, in 4k and in 2,7k 50fps.
with and without reelsteady, and tested every mode available on the insta 360 go 2.

It seems I had some comments are regarding mount method.
I did clearly explain that I tried a multitude of mounting ways, but to explain further.
Types of mounts I tried. -
Vertical in TPU mount, (screwed into plastic base plate)
Horizontal wrapped in foam sponge, rubber banded down to top of frame.
Velcro straps tight onto separate platform, which was suspended above frame on rubber isolation grommets.
Zip tied to plastic platform, that was on rubber grommets isolated from frame.
Fat rubber bands tight to top of insulated GoPro case (which itself was sat on soft foot mount)
And I also tried to hard mount it zip tied only.
I mounted it in multiple ways.
On three completely different quads.
Each time I had either some jello, or lots of jello.
The go pro H8, on each drone, on any mount, had no jello.
UPDATE - I HAD MANY PEOPLE TELLING ME I NEEDED TO MOUNT VERTICAL (I DID) AND USE NDs ETC... AND THEN THERE WOULD BE NO PROBLEM, I DID ALL OF THE ABOVE, HERE IS A UNLISTED FOLLOW UP VIDEO THAT SHOWS THE BEST CASE SCENARIO... AND THE LEVEL OF UNWANTED ARTEFACTS EVEN WITH MY BEST 360 GO2 RESULTS-
