    5.8GHz 25mw Regulations

    Hi Until recently we had been using the DJI 5.8GHz video downlink. It works great, however we recently discovered that UK regulations don't allow use of this. It amazes me that so many providers are either oblivious to these regulations or sell the equipment inside the UK regardless. Anyway...

    X8 Pros and Cons
