Hi,
I have a cheap 900mhz FPV system from HobbyKing. It works OK (static here and there, nothing major). I don't have goggles or OSD or the "return home/return to launch" stuff. I use a small monitor to see the video. I also use my Go Pro for video feed and recording. FPV looks like a lot of fun when Trappy does it but the anxiety stops me from doing anything "daring".
Problem is, I don't like looking at the video. It's FPV "anxiety" - a fear that I'm going to lose the plane: lose line-of-sight, lose signal and/or lose orientation. Yeah, I know these problems could be solved by buying more electronics but my wife would have a cow. I also could drag someone along to spot for me...yada yada yada.
Anyway, does anyone else have FPV anxiety?
