Senior Telemaster with 3 watt 2.4ghz, Inspire OSD, 2 cameras.

For the first time, (this is my 3rd av plane) the transmitter was waaaaaayyyyyy too powerful, I got home and ordered a 1watt from Future Hobbies

I guess you're not using a 2.4Ghz radio with that setup, are you?

Richiela

no, I'm using 72mhz.

I receiverd my Future Hobbies 1watt 2.4 transmitters, I believe it is a Lawmate. It also appears the my existing Black Widow AV receiver is not compatible with the new transmitter.
I verify this using a frequency counter. 2410.875 for the older transmitter 2410.112 for the new unit.

So I ordered the receiver from Future Hobbies,

Still waiting for receiver to show up! I'm going to miss another weekend

I assume your Tele Sr is electric??

What power system are you using - motor, esc, battery?

I have a Tele Electro - the 6-ft wingspan - electric powered, and also the Tele Sr powered by a G20ei, however there is too much vibration for photo/video. So I'm planning to convert it to electric.

I am using the 2.4 GHz Diversity system from Future Hobbies (1-watt Tx), with 2 8dbi polarized patch antennas for the receiver, and the range is tremendous.

update: I received the receiver, no cables.

My telemaster is a senior with a 8 foot wing. I'm using a super tigre 90 with a 14x8 APC prop. Garmin gps, OSD,, (1) 550 line camera, soon to be 2 cameras
1000 mw 2.4 transmitter with Black widow omini antenna. 2 1800 2 cell lipos in series. flying weight about 10 lbs

On the ground I have a simple 8dB gain antenna on a tripod with a standard receiver, I toying with the idea of recording directly t pc. When I try ti record to my Canon DV camera the input dosen't like to reconginize the signal

Hi,
How did you overcome the 2.4's non-vibe loving attitude?
As far as I know, the 2.4 Tx is extremely sensitive to vibration and basically that is making the use of nitro or gas engines nearly impossible.
Please explain as I am about to make a purchase for the FPV setup, I'd like to be able use my nitro planes.

Cheers,

Isolate your engine and camera with high quality materials. Use conductive tape to wrap te transmitter. Iso mount the transmitter.
