Hello everyone,
I have been working a LOT recently, and I've had to replace a bunch of outgrown clothes and shoes and some monthly expenses are coming into my life so not much cash has been left over for the hobbies. But now I've finally catched up a bit, and it seems I'm finally getting somewhere towards fulfilling my dream of FPV.
So here's the monitor I'm going to use:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330914173898
7" TFT LCD Car Rear View Backup Camera DVD Auto Reverse Headrest Monitor
I've seen others using this screen and I've gotten the impression that it is not the best but it is still really good. And it was the cheapest largest portable screen with shipping to Ecuador. Well at least they were shipping to Ecuador until I completed my purchase. They updated their listing two minutes ago. Now they don't ship to Ecuador. And a lot of other countries. Interesting.
Oh, and I requested a tracking number for the package, but as of yet I have not seen one anywhere. So let's just hope my cash doesn't get lost in the deep trenches of Ecuadorian mail handling...
Anyway, I paid $32.56 for my little screen, I like the feature it has of the embeddable frame:
That way I can make my FPV ground station nice and clean. I'm planning on running a 1.3GHz system and I haven't figured out the antennas yet, but I'll figure it out in time.
So,when if this item arrives safely I'll do an overview and post some pictures.
Safe flying to you all.
