Help with Versa copter v2 and spektrum!

[redhead]

I'm new to building drones and I'm planning to build a versa copter v2 I have a spektrum dx6i (upgrading to the dx8 gen2) and don't know what receiver to put on the versa copter. I plan to also use the naze 32 rev6 on the quad. I am also curious what kind of FPV camera people recommend for racing. I am thinking about Hyperion Mini 600 TVL Camera w/built in 5.8Ghz 25mW VTX.

I'm using a Lemon 8ch with CPPM. Orange also makes CPPM and SBUS receivers that work well. You can use a standard PWM like the AR610, but they are more expensive and have higher latency. There is also a Spektrum serial race Rx but I have no experience with that one.

I don't think you'll be very happy with the range of the 25mw camera/VTx combo, most guys racing use 200-600mw.

Lets say I use
AR610 6-Channel
Dx8 gen 2
Naze32 Rev6
would that all work together?

Yes, that is almost identical to the setup I used at first, only difference is the Tx.
