Connecting the FPV System Together

Posted by Trent at MyGeekShow on January 14, 2012 at 5:38am

This week I connected and ground tested my FPV system. Its a very basic FPV system, cheap and won't be a long term solution, but I just wanted to get started in FPV and learn from mistakes/learn what I like/don't like etc. And there isn't as much at stake if I crash/lose it!

    Maybe Allison Chan could have used a softer tone to put-it but, basicaly he is pointing at the thing that hurts.

    1-  the content was ok and to the point. That was interesting for me but to repetitive and the content felt stretched.

    2- a diagrame of some sort would have provide a visual reference betwen the connections and the different parts.

    I like the fact that trying things in public are a signe of determination.

    Dont let go, keep doing-it.

    Ellison: Ha ha! Got to leave em wanting more :)

    Toby: why? I didn't ask you guys first :) Could have done another freq for FPV, and eventually I will, just wanted to go cheap and easy at first. But yes, 900mhz telem is in the plans. Thanks!

    interesting that you chose 900Mhz?
    that is the same frequency as the better telemetry options, any reason why you chose that?

    Ha ha, what a tease.  All that talking, and no display of the camera images on the monitor? :-)
