I've decided to get the Boscam LCD5802 monitor and TS352 for FPV for my P2 w/ GoPro. It's the same system that comes with the Deluxe Storm package from Helipal, but a little cheaper.

Monitor: http://www.banggood.com/Boscam-RX-LCD5802-5_8GHz-LCD-Diversity-Receiver-7-Inch-Monitor-p-908273.html
Tx: http://www.banggood.com/Boscam-FPV-5_8G-500mW-AV-Wireless-Transmitter-TS352-p-915390.html

My question is, what cables/other parts do I need to have a complete system? This will literally be on the slow boat from China, so want to make sure I have what I need.

I saw these cables listed. They are cheap so I can get them all, but do I need them, and what else?

If you have the right gear you should not need any extra cable's. What camera mount are you using, If you are using a Zemuse mount then the cable come with it, on the Phantom 1 make sure that you have the upgrade MC in it, everything fit's together. Any more problem's just ask.

Thanks Chopperflyer. I just ordered a P2 w zenmuse from 1uas.com. But I at least need the plug in for the gopro, right?

Yes in the US, but figured I would get the needed cables along with the Monitor and Tx and have them all shipped together.

Nope :) The Zenmuse gimbal itself plugs in to the back of the GoPro and gets the video feed from there. What you will need though is the cable to connect the Zenmuse output to the video transmitter. Your kit may have it, or you may just need to solder the leads in the Zenmuse cable to the corresponding leads on the transmitter's cable.
