Hello all. Thanks for being patient with me as I am a beginner
I posted this question on Flytron's forums, but haven't received a response yet. This community seems way more active and helpful!
I've been at this for about 4 days now, watching videos and researching sites like flytron and such to find the video transmitter and receiver that I need. I saw the review on FliteTest.com with IBCRAZY doing the stress tests and would like to know exactly what those 2 Flytron items are on the table with the other 4 sets.
I'm pretty sure I want the Flytron OpenLRS because I plan on using GPS and SimpleOSD with some 1+ Mile flights in the future so I would like the stuff I buy now to be able to do that too. I just can't figure out which one is for the video receiver.
What do I need to buy to hook up my GoPro Hero2 to my RC plane, AND what do I need on the ground to plug into my monitor?
This is my shopping cart so far on Flytron:
1) OpenLRS M3 1W Tx module for Futaba - New generation (M3) 1W Opensource RC Transmitter Module
2) OpenLRS Receiver v2 - New! Open Source RC Receiver v2
I have no idea why all the Transmitters say "Futaba" on them. Is this NOT the part that goes in the plane to "Transmit" video? Do I have something backwards in my head? Is this not the stuff I need entirely? I'm starting to think these 2 items aren't for video at all I want to make sure I buy the right thing.
Thanks for any help and/or advice! I really just want someone to tell me what to add to my shopping cart to hook up my GoPro Hero2 and my Monitor! It would be great if Flytron packaged the stuff I need like Hobby King does. Maybe I should just get the Hobby King package mentioned in the Flite Test vids... I dunno.
Thanks again!
