Budget video recorder for multicopter

Good afternoon dear comrades!
I wondered about equipping my tricopter with a video recorder. The device has a mass of 750 grams, an estimated take-off weight> 900 grams, dimensions of approximately 600x700mm. The camera gimbal is not yet available.
I plan to fly the next flight next week, during this time I want to equip the device with a video recorder by investing a minimum of money in this equipment. The requirements are simple:
- equipment weight < 150 grams;
- shooting video 720p 30fps;
- Survival of the camera when falling from 2 meters onto the grass.
I have some ideas:
- use my old nokia n78;
- buy a webcam and connect it to Raspberry PI;
- buy some kind of car DVR for these purposes.
And which option and what equipment would you personally choose? I'm most interested in real-life experiences (especially with video examples).
Thank you for your attention!

GoPro Hero 3 White
$200
Or one of its Chinese counterparts if you really don't care about the money.

The third option is a video recorder. And it's simple, and if you don't like it, you can attach it to the car.
Proha is expensive, in addition, the white option is not far behind in quality from normal DVRs.
There is also such a camera - Mobius. This is the development of the "spy" video car alarm. Very decent quality (approaching silver), price $ 80, the size of a matchbox. But in the Russian Federation is not for sale.
