at3whee 0 Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 Hi all, I've been very interested in FPV since 2010 but I never had the motivation to go and start. I finally have scraped together the money and chosen some components. I'd like to know if the parts are decent, and difficulty of connecting this setup to my laptop. Camera, Transmitter, And Receiver: RC Car I don't know if i'm missing something, so please do tell me if I am Thank you very much, Andy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mr.RC-Cam 129 Posted September 26, 2012 Report Share Posted September 26, 2012 1. If your R/C system is 2.4GHz then avoid using 2.4GHz for your video link. Instead, consider using a 900Mhz or 1.2/1.3GHz video link. 2. If you must use a laptop then you will need a USB composite video capture adapter (available from computer retailers). Laptops are not popular choices as the primary viewing monitor. If you decide to use a dedicated monitor then check this discussion on models that are suitable for FPV: http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1658790 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
