Video Feed From GoPro Downlink

Hi All,

Can anybody recommend a good downlink for a gopro,   I want to be able to see what im shooting.

i know DJI do a 5.8ghz system, anyone using it?

I';m using the H3-2D gimbal, which sends the output through the edge connector on the back.  I don';t use DJI';s Vtx, just Fat Shark/Immersion.  The DJI proprieary Vtx has a couple of extra features like channel switching from the Tx and camera selection etc, but I don';t use those things anyhow.  Of course, DJI released their 5.8 (900 Mhz in other countries) VTx long before they released their Lightbridge, which as you may know transmit';s in glorious HD over solid 2.4.  That';s the route to go, but at around £900 it might make you choke!

Of course it has inbuilt 2.4 Rx and osd, so two things less to buy/integrate.

Yeah at 900 squids it';s one for later after I start earning from this project

Assuming you';ve got a go pro 3, all you need really is a small usb video out cable, a video transmitter and something to receive the video on the ground.

So something like
http://www.unmannedtechshop.co.uk/gopro-3-fpv-connection-cable-90-degree.html for a cable
http://www.unmannedtechshop.co.uk/5-8ghz-25mw-fpv-transmitter.html for a transmitter
http://www.unmannedtechshop.co.uk/fpv-5-8ghz-monitor-7inch.html for a monitor.

(* I usually buy my UAV stuff from unmanned tech hence the links, you can get the same or similar from anywhere you want :) )
