Ahh.. Well... It use to be the way to have a CL and SPW pair, but not anymore. 2 SPWs out perform CL and SPW.

I tell you what - If you take 2 of the SPWs and you are not happy - send them back.

I think you will keep them though.

I have used the SPW/SPW combo in 5.8g on one of my planes, and it kicked the butt of the older CL/SPW combo i had. Dont get me wrong, the original ones ive had for ages have never been bad at all (though they have rusted on the critical element area due to no coating), but the new ones (both SPW's) i got off Mong (lol) are the bee's knee's so im guessing in 1.2g they will be just as good!

And honestly, you cant go past the aesthitically pleasing Circular Wireless antenna's, mate they look and feel fantastic and i reckon they would fair alot better in a bingle due to their flexible cable then any other brand out there!!

Hey All,

Want a GoPro but can't afford it?? Well we have been given access to some brand spanking new GoPro HD Hero cameras at a ridiculous price!!

These are brand new cameras with the full 12 months Australian Warranty.

There is a world wide shortage on the HD2, so why not grab one of these cheap.

These are NEW and not refurbished - full 1080p cameras from the Aussie distributor.

HURRY - They won't last long at $189.00.

They are the HD1 mate. Hence why they are priced like they are. They are brand spanking new Aussie stock! So for those that can't afford a 2 - this is a good alternative. The record in full 1080p - and if you crash - it won't be as much pain as losing a HD2. LOL!!

Yep! And... I still use a GP1. I don't want to see a flash new GP2 go in with a plane and destroy $300 plus worth of camera. So not a bad option for a good 1080p on-board camera.

Fat Shark Altitude SDVGA Goggles on the way!!

Yep - We have some of these new babies on the way!

If you are not sure what they are - I have listed the specs below. But the come with the biggest FOV on the market, a head tracker and RX built in!!

We will have these up on our site soon, and it will be first in first serve, so if you are interested PM me. The first production run is gone, so there will be a wait before we can get some more.

Cheers
Mongrel

The new AttitudeSD is the best all round FPV headset in the Fat Shark lineup. Smaller and lighter than its predecessors, the AttitudeSD is packed with new technology and features to deliver outstanding performance. The new 35 degree FOV display strikes a perfect balance between large screen immersion and compact pixel density clarity. The AttitudeSD sports the same polarized backlight technology used in the gorgeous Dominator display for vibrant colors and has adjustable IPD for dialing in the optic sweet spot.
On the head tracker side, the AttitudeSD includes the latest generation MIG tracker (V4) with new algorithm refinements for drift free precision head tracking.
The integrated 5G8 receiver module is latest generation with improved sensitivity that increases range by a dramatic 40% over previous models. The module has also has improved high pass filtering to make it impervious to 433Mhz and 2.4Ghz UHF radio interference.
The improvements extend to the exterior as well with a rubberized velvety texture, tactile motion IPD sliders, secured rubber eye cups and a thinner head strap. This headset looks and feels great from the inside out. You’ll be the envy of your fellow FPV pilots.


Kit includes:
- AtttitudeSD headset (with integrated 5G8 RX and HT)
- 250mW 7ch 5G8 TX
- Filtered balance lead adapter
- 2p 3dBi 5G8 antenna
- 3m AV cable
