My first build of a Quadcopter FPV (first person view) video and audio transmitter operating at 5.8GHz. A tiny PAL (phase alternate line) camera is attached together with an omni-directional cloverleaf antenna.

Good video.
Insects have antennae, wireless uses aerials.
I run my camera on 3.5 volts and vtx on 7 volts
I have been looking for a setup like this, my RV is 35 foot long, and I pull a full size suv behind her, all I have for rear facing camera gives me a view of my car and a little bit on either side. I have considered mounting some camera's on each mirror so I can see what is going on along side my rig, after an incident in Cheyenne Wyoming where I began changing lanes and a car decided to pass me on my right side. Had my wife not alerted me with her high pitch warning system (commonly known as a scream!) I would surely have collided with the car, and probably pushed him off the overpass, wrecking both my RV and his car. A mirror mounted camera would have shown the idiot in time for me to prevent the collision alert and keeping both of our blood pressures a bit lower then what the doctors describe as frightening.
did you ever get any decent fpv antennas? Many times the cheap China antennas are very very poor, a nice set of Pagoda ant. will surprise you… I like your channel very much, alway watch post bag, I've even ordered several of your reviews.
Thanks for sharing . great work. What would setup would you suggest for 2km range ?
If i have receiver on my drone and the receiver has mic and white cable which is for audio…
How i will hear my drone ? Will the transmitter sent the sound to the receiver or what about the white audio cable…
Let me know how this works thanks.
Hey Julian, I love your video. Do you know a transmitter that has a working frequency at UHF (Mhz) because my project needs only frequencies that are in Mhz. I think the boscam av transmitter module has a very high frequency
can you give components list??It really helps me..,.
What is name on 3.3v reg. ????
This is actually 25 mW VTX. Good up to 3 km with good antennas.
BTW, it is easy to open, just unsolder it at two points, and remove cover. Later you can back.
What is the purpose of this 3.3V regulator? Did you opened this TX? Inside is already one 3.3V regulator. Why two in series???
Hi Julian, I really liked this vid, I recently completed a Q450 quadcopter build, and everything works, except when I connect a receiver to the cc3d, it becomes dead in the water. I've used the recievers separately with a servo and found them working, I've connected the cc3d via usb to openpilot on my pc and ive gotten all esc's and motors working fine. A friend told me he thinks the receiver is not getting enough power. I'm not sure what to do to address this, do you have any suggestions?
