OK guys, this looks the jobbie for those who want to run up to 8 cameras!!!! At once with 1 transmitter:- http://www.maximintegrated.com/datasheet/index.mvp/id/1312 Ross

I'm sure there are chips (IC's) out there with MUX & DEMUX chips, would be quite easy & could also mean 2 camera feeds to one TX...now that would give you stereoscopic vision as well!!!! Let me dig into this a bit more, I have been thinking about it for a while now...bought a second DX7 to strip...

I think you're right there Nic, more will follow suit! I would like to see a manufacturer design a camera with the guts floating on anti vibration mounts that can be set for car, bike, walking & RC aircraft ;)

Seems great for a pocket cam, wouldn't mind seeing some aerial video from it...or how about this (claimed to be canon 5D MK3 eater) SLT-A99V http://www.sony.co.uk/product/dsi-body/slt-a99v#/technical-specifications Ross

Chris wouldnt it be easier to do FPV on 1.3GHz & video cam on 5.8GHz ;) Ross

Sub 20kg is good for me as well Gary.

Sony Cx730 or 760? Havent heard of this one...can you provide a link? Ross

How about TDM, Time Division Multiplexing? http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Communication_Systems/Time-Division_Multiplexing Ross

I'm sure they make them like this on purpose! They build in problems, so the camera is never quite right...if it was right, we would never buy another camera...welcome to the world of consumerism!!! They can make an ever lasting light bulb, but whats the point...once everyone had these bulbs...

Good use of zoom!

I have tried this, one TX with a vertical whip, the other TX with circular antenna....works fine as long as my MR stays horizontal, in a turn/banked over my FPV receiver picks up the video downlink :(

MF, why isn't there one camera suits all ;) My canon 40D is the same, so I use a DX201 mounted on the front lip of the AV200.....haven't flown her yet, WX here in UK is terrible! Ross

Still got my head in the sand mate, not 100% sure yet :(

If you're getting a signal out of the HDMI onto a TV, then its not the cam at fault, but the NTSC HDMI convertor....search for a PAL version. Ross

Nic, whats need now on this thread is a full step by step guide for NEW & OLD alike to setup a RSGS! then close the thread, make it a sticky. Ross

My answer to Jes should explain. As for retracts...yes they could fail...so could a motor, so could a battery, ESC, arm, radio link...the list goes on. It's just one more risk I am willing to take. If they ever fail to come down...then I'll land her into a hedge, bush, long grass. Ross

Jes, you seem to be having problems believing my reason for chosing my particular set. I started 5 years ago with a trex600 & underslung mount...the legs rotated with the gimbal...so all I could see was big orange & yellow noodles, at 90 degrees to the body & when you use the skids for...

I'm in. Ross

If you gents care to read my answer again you will see I gave my reasons...orientation!!!!

Cant help with the insurance, but the 5.8GHz transmitter is part of the amatuer band, you will need a ham radio license.....it's a test on licensing conditions etc, you will have no problems passing if you read carefully. Ross
