Getting Started in FPV

I am going to make a video series documenting my experiences as I am getting into FPV flying. In this video I cover what is FPV and what you need.

What you need:
- Video system: camera, video transmitter and receiver, monitor
- RC model: plane, helicopter, tricopter, etc...

Future videos:
- Choosing and FPV system: I will test different systems and antennas (I have a 900 mHz 800 mW system from bevrc.com and a 5.8 gHz 200 mW system from foxtechfpv.com)
- Wiring an FPV system
- Choosing an FPV plane
- Putting an FPV system on a plane

please help me i purchased 12 Channel 900Mhz Tx/Rx video system with CCD camera fpv system from hobbking and i plug everything in and i have no video display

[schraut5]

@N4161X Thats a tough problem to fix! There are lots of places where you could have a problem. I recommend taking a quick video of your setup and posting, its the easiest way to get help! Do you have all of the wires plugged in correctly?

[NoNoobStyle]

do you think you could do a video about your heads up display on your fpv aircraft?

[schraut5]

@NoNoobStyle Yes! I plan on making a video soon about my OSD/heads up display

[schraut5]

@Dannysrc No problem!

Thank you.

@441rider Just like in everyday life, we all have to use our best judgement to not infringe on the rights and freedoms of others. If you check out some of my other videos you will notice that I never fly FPV over area where people live or I could cause major damage to anyone's property. But like everything in life - we do assume some level of responsibility no matter what we are doing. I hope you don't live by me!
