sbrv24 0 Report post Posted July 31, 2009 I am looking to start with FPV. I already fly RC and have a Futaba 6 EXA and JR 8 channels radios . I do not want head tracking ,OSD etc to start with . All I want to do is fly FPV to Start with and then add on after I get to be good at it . I am thinking of a Fatshark RCV922 Aviator Edition combo with a 10mW receiver . I am also getting a 500mW receiver additional to plug in later to enhance range . Do you guys think this is OK or is anything additional to be added .

sbrv24 0 Report post Posted August 25, 2009 I got myself a RCV922 Aviator edition of Fat Shark with the 10 mW Transmitter and a CMOS camera with pan/tilt ( no head tracking or OSD ) and the fat shark goggles . I have a a JR 8103 Tx on 72 mhz. Can I connect the pan and tilt to one of the additional channels like channel 6,7 OR 8 of my receiver and operate them with varying degree eg like using the flap channel. I plan to use my Multiplex Twin Star for my first FPV flight. Sai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In addition, you would probably want to use a servo with a minimum of at least 180 degree rotation for the pan function. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The JR 8103 is an awesome transmitter. But, I don't think it will work with your head tracker. Its trainer mode (which is used for head tracking) only mixes CH1 - CH4, whereas you'll want the higher channels for pan and tilt. If that is what you want to do, then I think you'll need a different Tx. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sbrv24 0 Report post Posted August 26, 2009 I don't have a head tracker what I intend doing is connect one servo to channel 6 ie the flap channel with the servo and the knob centered so the knob to the right would mean right pan and left will be left pan . The servos came fitted with the fat shark camera so I assume it has 180deg movement , will check it out though. Thanks a lot for the help. Sai Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
