Hi,
I'm trying to get into FPV, just I'm going to gather as much research before I decide to make any purchases. First off, I will be flying in generally urban areas, as I live in San Diego, California. My initial thought is 1.3 GHz because it is not used very often, not as much interference etc. So, would 1.3 GHz be best for me given my circumstances?
I'm a bit reluctant to buy it because I feel that it is much more uncommon.
Second thing is power. So for sure I'm going to be getting a 9dbi patch antenna for longer range, but I'm unsure of the power. I will be flying a 4' wing, and preferably I wan't to be able to get as much distance I can (don't really care about vertical, I prefer proximity). So 300 mW in theory gets less distance but also consumes less energy and weighs less than a 500mW, Right? I will be using a gopro for video by the way.
Sorry for being a noob guys, just want to get my facts straight before I invest.
