"Edgar,
I agree with you on the 2 cameras. This is likely the way I will go since you can get a FPV camera at about 25g weight. I would definitely record the transmitted video at the ground station, but the second camera on board would…"

Edgar Scott replied to JohnD's discussion FPV discussion - transmitters, receivers, etc."Most people want 2 cameras because the one that needs quality shot is on the gimbal, and the one you want to fly with is your smaller camera with the OSD for your data.
