FPV finishing touches need help: Phantom 1 - GoPro3 - Fatshark

Hello pilots,

So I'm almost there adding FPV to my Phantom 1 and GoPro 3+. Ordered a kit from ReadymadeRC, and I'm still missing a few parts, but I'm unsure what to get. I would be extremely grateful for some advice!

What I ordered:
**RMRC Custom FPV Package - 5.8GHz (RMRC-CUSTOM-58GHZ)
-Camera GoPro HERO3 & HERO4 Cable
-Video Transmitter FatShark 250mW 5.8GHz
-Video Receiver Fat Shark Dominator 5.8GHz Receiver Module, Standard Bands
-TX Antenna Circular Wireless - 5.8 GHz SPW58RCHP Skew Planar Wheel (1PC)
-RX Antenna Standard
-ReadyMadeRC 7 Inch LCD FPV Monitor

Attached are photos of the Transmitter, Receiver, Monitor, and cables supplied.

So what I'm still lacking and need help with:

1) How do I power the transmitter? What battery should I buy, and can I charge it with the Phantom charger? Do I need adapters to charge it?

2) Same question but with the receiver and monitor. What batteries and how do I charge them?

3) How does the video connect from the receiver to the monitor?

4) Where do you recommend I mount the antenna?

Thank you so much!

Great post. Wish I had the answers. I do know that charger is the one that comes with the Phantom 1. At least it is the one that came with mine.
I have a 1.1.1

Haven't yet decided if I want to do FPV with it because I'll probably buy a P3P if and when they iron out the bugs.

Have you checked over at DJI Forums?

Did you see these?
