Falcon 1 (F1)

Have had the F1 installed for 11 months. The video quality is outstanding but the unit randomly stops recording with a message (slow card speed, stop recording). I have worked with Vantrue support regarding the issue and they sent a new front camera cable and main camera. After replacing these components the unit worked without fail for about 3 months but is now failing again with the exact same issue. I have used 3 different SD cards, all of which exceed Vantrue's specifications but this has not changed the issue. Vantrue support did not reply to my latest message regarding the issue.

Installation was really easy and fast, everything was marked so there is no way to do a mistake. There is more than enough of cable length. Quality of picture is really god, no like GoPro or Insta360, but really good. For everyday use I think this is really superb gadget and I feel much more secure now having this camera installed.

It was great to receive it only two days after I purchased the F1 camera, but was a bit disappointed when I started to configure it as I found it is not possible to configure the front camera at 4k (as advised) and the rear camera at HD, if I choose 4k you can’t have the rear at all, I had to choose the front+ rear at lower resolution.
After a week of riding, it’s ok but not the best.
Another hiccup during installation is the yellow ACC wire, it doesn’t come with a standard adapter to connect to a fuse box or an existing wire, my work around is to buy a connector clamp to attach to an existing wire and a fuse to connect the yellow wire, I know it doesn’t draw much current but I can’t risk connecting a load without the right protection from over current. Would be nice if it comes with an easy way to connect neatly.

Ottimo prodotto pienamente soddisfatto

A bit of a pig to install on my bike, but not so with others. Picture quality is really good. Attached to my fairing and relatively shake-free on a Guzzi V-twin too.
Phone and pc software is good with so many options and settings. Only minor criticism is that the sd card is located behind a lift off cover, retained by two tiny screws so care must be taken not to lose them. Finally, I had to contact Vantrue for some technical support and they (shout out to Roxanne) we’re absolutely brilliant. I nearly bought the Innovv but so glad I didn’t, particularly after speaking to some K5/K7 owners. Recommend the F1 100%.
