    GoPro FPV kit

    RTH is something I hope isn't ever tripped without my flipping the switch but I'm glad it's at least programmed. One thing is that no matter what can your using ANYTHING can happen when your thousands of feet away. As long as you take the best precautions with the gear you are using I see no...

    GoPro FPV kit

    It's so strange that mine doesn't do that... I'm going to go outside and point it directly at the sun to see of the surroundings saturate in color. :shrug:

    GoPro FPV kit

    In my opinion power the GoPro from its own pack, stay away from powering it on the flight system. I've heard not so great things if that little back plug goes out. It's all preference and "if" you have room for more than one cam or do you care to record?

    GoPro FPV kit

    When I say GoPro OSD, it only displays battery indicator for the GoPro, time you have been recording and the type of recording your doing like "r4" Real OSD for craft distance, voltage...etc is seperate

    GoPro FPV kit

    I use my GoPro for FPV. ReadymadeRC HD A/V cable to the Vtx sends it all plug-n-play. If using a GoPro make sure of the following though... Turn off the "auto shut off" that way if you forget to hit record it doesn't go blank on you after the timed shut down. Always check the battery, I leave...

    8FG or 10CG

    Just ordered my NIB 8FGs for $450.96 & it came with an extra promo 2nd 7-Channel Rx on top of the R6208SB 8-Channel 2.4GHz FASST Hi-Voltag Rx.... $440 isn't really a "great deal" Just my opinion since this isn't in the "For sale" section :shrug:

    First FPV test flight

    Oh yea, I'm loving FPV & I have a feeling within no time I'll be flying around manual mode and seeing if I can post some fast vids like Kloner and MWR :fingers-crossed: the palm trees are just a hair over 1400 feet so tomorrow I'll be passing them and moving onto the next 1000 foot stretch to...
