I went with FPV to upgrade the exsisting system that's already had major problems.

I'm kind of frustrated after a long wait to receive a 900 mhz 500 mw tx and rx combo from Hobbywireless due to a backorder delay. In the process of trying to have the problem resolved and see if they can work out the problem. What happened is after receiving the box with both units with antennas and a sheet to show the basic hookup( where's a copy of the invoice?) and just checked to make sure all was included to make a proper video transmission. Placed the system up in a safe location to check it out at a later time, had other higher priorities. A couple of weeks pass and collected all the cords and power adapters to power up the receiver and transmitter. I used my JVC mini dv cam to use with the tx for the initial use, a small monitor was used with the receiver. The first problem that was encountered was that the receiver was in the PAL format and displayed a horizontally skewed split screen, can't use it unless i can purchase an adapter for around $30 to $200. The second problem came up when i hooked up the transmitter to the 12v 500mah power source specified right on the unit itself. Using the JVC cam, it hooked up and was able to see the display on the small monitor on the other side of the room, although a distorted image, could make out the transmitter was working fine except it was starting to heat up unusually fast and only kept it on for a couple of minutes to finish up the test. When i went to try the setup again a day later, the transmitter wouldn't even come on.

Don't know if anybody else has had similar issues or not.

Scott.
