FPV from EDF Jet

[FPVAirCombat]

Friends in our club field has been nudging me toward flying EDF jets. I gave in. With the faster speeds, latency becomes an issue- 0.4 seconds can be the difference Between hitting the ground on landing or not. So I had to upgrade from RE to new DJI FPV system. So I put it on an old jet and dressed up the instrument panel with a picture of F-5E fighter cockpit. Looks pretty good!

Here’s a recent Jet FPV training session:

That looks like a really cool location to fly!

Do you have the $149.00 DJI Kit ? Is it compatible with any 5.8ghz fpv receiver or does it only work with DJI stuff ?

It only works with DJI stuff.

Well, decided to up the challenge by flying under a restrictive view canopy with head-tracker for ultimate realism this time and fly tight formation. What a thrill!
