Video transmitters send your drone camera feed to your goggles or monitor in real time. VTX power output and frequency directly affect your video range and penetration through obstacles. Find analog and digital VTX units at FPVdrones.eu, compatible with popular FPV camera systems and suitable for racing, freestyle, and long-range flying.
Frequently asked questions
What frequency bands are used for FPV video transmission?
The most common bands are 5.8GHz for analog and many digital systems, though some digital systems use proprietary frequencies. Check regional regulations, as legal power limits vary by country.
How much VTX power is legal to use?
Legal limits vary by country; many European countries limit unlicensed use to 25mW, with higher power requiring specific licensing. Always check your local regulations before flying with higher-power VTX.
What is pit mode on a VTX?
Pit mode reduces VTX power to a minimal level, useful for powering on your drone near others at a flying field without interfering with other pilots' video feeds.
Can I switch VTX channels and frequencies in flight?
Many modern VTX units support in-flight channel switching via your radio or OSD menu, which is useful for avoiding interference from other pilots at shared flying fields.
