Completed my first flight today with my FPV setup. I am thoroughly pleased with the outcome, performance and added experience with FPV. Thanks to all the posters here I was able to educate myself on all the options. I have had my P2 with H3-3D and Hero 3+ Black for a few months.
What I got:
Lilliput 664/W, IOSD mini, 600mw ImersionRC TX, Secraft tray, harness and monitor mount. I used a cable from FirstPersonView.com for solderless install, very easy to setup. After reading many posts I wasn't expecting much from the Lilliput receiver and was planning on adding the IRC Duo 5800 but wanted to try the Lilliput first. To my surprise I had exceptional reception at least on the first try. I had some scan line interference in my WiFi and EMI infested house but in the field it was perfect. I did not change any switches, both were set to 5740. I used the Fat Shark Patch, no extension on the Lilliput and a IRC Spironet on the P2. I only flew up to about 500' and out to about 400', will do more distance. The Lilliput looks great, plenty bright for full sun with hood attached.
I also have a set of BlueBeam Ultras to try different combos. Will report back with results. It is going to take some practice to fly FPV, I only used it today for framing. At least at my experience level I am not ready to fly beyond visual and I found it was hard to take my eyes away from the P2 to look at the screen. Thanks again all, this setup really adds to the enjoyment and video results.
