Cheap FPV for my Tarantula.

[ArmyVet]

I am still having fun with my el-cheapo Tarantula, but already considering upgrading.

I am amazed at how high this thing will go and even more amazed that I can get it back. Especially since I am pretty much surrounded by tall pines and such.

Anyway to my question. I am looking at a very cheap FPV system made specifically for the Tarantula.

For the 'Link Police' haha

Has anyone used one of these and I am wondering is there just one camera for Picture/Video and FPV?? Or is there a a separate camera for FPV?? What is that silver tube mounted on the camera?? Is that actually the FPV camera?

And yes, I have tried to ask the vendors on Amazon and FleaBAy. No response. go figure grrrrr.

Thanks
Bill

Antenna.

just one camera

You may have to a mod (add a small switch) , to be able to turn it on/off. Don't know if as it stands it work for you.

Thanks, I got confirmation from Amazon on that too.

The stock Controller/Transmitter is capable of turning Camera Picture/Record on and off. Apparently from the write ups I have seen. It will also control this one. So that is cool!

Thanks again.
