Whats the FCC id of the transmitter?

Paperwork is filed with the FCC. Testing done by TDK RF in Austin and passed the requirements for Part 15 with flying colors.

And yes, we have learned a lot about RF in the last couple of months!

Does anyone have one of these and can you record what you are seeing? (ie - loop it through a computer or VCR)

Is there a system that DOES work with a 2.4 system?

I never tried the hole HL setup, but I tried the goggle recently, and the picture is very good, good color, crisp picture. I tried most of the brand of goggle available for FPV presently and they have the best picture and size for FPV. Only drawback, under sunlight, even with the sunshade, light will be incommodate, but it's easy to add something to block sunshine. Thet also a little bit fragile for feild use, but if you take care of the cable when you move, it's ok. The camera quality is very good too.

yes you can record the picture, you can use video splitter, or simply use a "Y" connector and split the video signal that goes to your goggle and send it also to your video recorder. VHS recorder will work very well because the picture is analog and your VHS recorder is analog too, it's better than today recorder who compress the picture.


it's exist no easy solution that work with 2.4Ghz radio. 900Mhz exist, but you must build your system.
