Need Some FPV Advice

I could use some help.

* What to make Lipo plate out of...G10/FR4 or Carbon fiber? Under my F550 (now an F650) frame bottom plate, I will be fab'ing a battery plate. My frame top plate is already carbon fiber. My gut feeling is to use G10/FR4 instead of CF to reduce chance of FPV or Radio interference even though it is heavier. What do you think?

* Camera case? I will be using a board camera and will make a housing. Along same lines as above, in this case, the carbon fiber may be an advantage to reduce UHF frequencies bleeding out from the camera circuitry. Comments?

* Which power module? I will be using the new Dragonrider DRAK TX for FPV. It has three power settings...25-200-600mW. I need to select only one (for now) RX module for Fatshark goggles. I am more of a "scale flier" than a racer and because I am new to FPV, I won't be taking as many chances (obstacles, close quarters) until later and fly LOS anyway. I will be using good antennae (IBCrazy). Suggestions?

Appreciate your time and expertise.
