Taking FPV Desicions

Tritium

Amateur Extra Class K5TWM
A bare 200mW 5.8gHz transmitter module uses 340mA max at 3.3v. A camera should be less than 500mW for a small FPV model and foxtech has some that will run at 3.3V like the transmitter module. Use a $30 camera and a 20 dollar transmitter module like this but build a skew planar for it. Run it from a 3.3V BEC.

Camera's in mw? Remember that these small transmitters dont have a 'clean' signal and they have better change to be influenced by noise. Looks cool tough

Sorry, Fingers did not correctly interpret what my mind told them. I meant 500mA or 1/2A for a camera. :)
Happens more and more the older I get! :confused:
