Hey, folks. I've decided I want an fpv system. I totally blame this forum for this pending unnecessary purchase. Now, I really don't know much about this whole fpv thing. I do know I need a camera and transmitter on the airplane and a monitor and receiver on the ground. I also know that HK sells packages for prices that seem very reasonable.
Before I pull the trigger on a purchase, I'd just like to verify a couple of things. First, It is my understanding that, since my TX is 2.4 GHz, I can not use a 2.4 GHz fpv system. So, based on that, I'd want a 900 MHz or lower frequency system. But, if that is the case, why don't I have to worry about interference from another 2.4 GHz TX?
Next, it is my understanding that the higher the mW, the longer the range. Are there any issues with using a 200 mW fpv system in the US from a legal standpoint? What are the limitations on these systems from a legal standpoint?
Lastly, are the HK fpv systems worth buying? Should I pass on these and save my money?
Thanks for any help you can give!
