The Fly6 is a video camera for cyclists, integrated into an LED tail-light.

I reviewed the Fly6 camera for Techly.

If you’re interested in the camera and want to see more sample footage and a comparison with the JVC Adixxion camera mentioned in the review, click through to YouTube where you can watch extended video clips in higher resolution.

Notes: Fly6 supplied a pre-sale prototype for evaluation, although apparently it’s not too far off the final hardware.

The good

• A really good idea to combine a tail-light and camera
• Pricing is aggressive
• Easy to fit
• Versatile mounting kit makes it easy to switch between bikes
• Standard USB cable, MicroSD card and video codec
• Easy to charge and use with no hassles

 The bad

• Video quality could really be better
• Lacks image stabilisation
• Setting time and date is a pain
• No good if you use a saddle bag
