    Uhm. Very few people have the resources (read: CASH) to have such a system. So, while we all dream about having one, can you post some pics?? Perhaps a video??? Thanks! Dan

    Voice radios

    I own a landscape maintenance business and use Peltor WS Alerts. They have a boom mic with built in Bluetooth to connect to our phones. Although I can't recommend them for lag free communication, Peltor does make 2 way boom mic headsets with VOX or remote PTT. The thing that makes all the...

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    Ya I took your advice. Shipping seems to be slow on everything lately everyone's blaming it on CNY. Can't wait.

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    There is a big difference in image quality from 2.4 to 5.8, or is that the compression? I can't believe how clear your video is. You definitely have a winning setup. I'd personally crap my pants flying that far away! Love the OSD, I ordered the RVOSD and hoping to get the same results :) I...

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    Ok Kloner you convinced me. I will stick with 5.8 and get the circular antenna and eventually upgrade to a tracker. Money that won't go to waste if ever I want to change system. I will also throw on a spironet antenna like you suggested on the rig. Very ballsy flying BTW, nice place to go duck...

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    Ok so I tried repositioning the antenna to the too plate and no luck. Antenna up I still get static about 500 feet out. Seems to be one SPECIFIC area that causes it (a home) You can see the home (brown house) in my video. That's why I don't bother going further. I think the antennas could be...

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    Looks like 1.3 right Kloner? What type of screen are you using? And is that a diversity receiver? Nice UHF setup :) Even the ground station is a great idea, can stay standing up. Show me some pics of that TBS please! Dan

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    Kloner you fly with spiros or crosshairs? I will try as you suggest. That should give me a good idea of the problems. I will keep you posted Thanks! Dan

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    Good idea Plingboot, I will try the original antennas to see if its a faulty antenna. I'm not sure the spironet will do better than my bluebeam? The crosshairs looks nice and from the reviews is very good. But just how directional is it? Will I have to put a tracker on it or follow it with my...

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    Ok here she is. I put the ping pong ball over the bluebeam just yesterday to protect it so I don't think that's the problem. I read as long as its facing down or up, the antenna should be fine. Anyhow if you see anything wrong point it out :)

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    Hi Kloner, I think I have read pretty much everything you posted on these forums hahaha Is it worth me investing in a 5.8 Diversity for my ground station? I'm really torn between this weak frequency to 1.3 or even 900mhz. Is 900mhz picture quality really that bad? Also, once locked, does the...

    AeroXcraft Go Pro Gimbal and Naza

    I've had terrible results with this gimbal. Like they say, good for leveling camera but the twitchy movements will give you Jello unrelated to prop/motor balancing. Also, before setting 400hz refresh make sure your servos support it. You will hear them on the bench as you move or better yet...

    Should I keep investing in 5.8ghz video?

    Hey guys I'm stuck at a crossroad. I went flying in an open field and got about 500 feet away and noticed some cutouts on my fatshark 600mw/Dominator setup with bluebeam antennas. My question is, should I invest in 5.8 diversity receiver with specialized antennas? Or should I just go 1.3...

    First FPV experience

    Why do you show me these things. Damn nice place to fly! So jealous :) I'm worried that 2.8 might make me lose sense of speed and height? What do you think? Thanks again Kloner!
