Kloner or Desjardins- On the Disco Core, how are you guys supplying the power for the camera & vtx: separate battery or
through the main battery?
I am installing an Immersion 5.8gHz 600mW vtx & wanting to know what voltage I need to set the Core at: 5v or 12v?
The package says it could handle 7-25 volts input voltage.

you would send it 12v,,,,,,, do you have a seperate camera or just the gopro live feed?
on mine i have a lawmate that needs 12v and a 12v cam so both mine are through core on both sides. the power going through there is super clean, no spare packs, just runs off the flight battery.....

I'm using a separate 5v camera. So,I guess 12v for the vtx & 5v for the cam?
Another question, how is the Core getting its power from the main flight battery?
WOW! And this is without any gimbal???
Do you have some detailed pics of your mounting setup?
are you using tge cx730 or 740?

The fatshark/immersion TX provides 5v output. you can set it up direct on 2-4s lipo. the core is not really needed

can you show us how you mount the camera on the frame? how did you kill the last jello?

as far as I can tell the only difference is the internal flash memory.
All the demo video's show the same steady show lens.
the 760 in not even available here!
I'll keep my nuts for now... Have found a second hand cx730 that's why I'm asking.

im surprised the disco will lift the cx760. I guess it looks heavier than it really is.
Thanks Sebas,
see the Pic attached, no Gimbal, hardmounted, only some foam and the green Silicone Pad between Cam and Plate.
I use the CX 700 wich is 100g lighter than the 730.

See the pic in my last post for mounting. I killed the last jello with the Sony ND Filter
It´s the CX 700 in my case, weight is 465g . Afaik the newer models are heavier cause they have a gyro built in.
I have a ZII here kloner, ready to build and i am really thinking to build it around the CX.
Nice video you posted!
cheers
