Ian, if the ImmersionRC 600 is only compatible with a small set of receivers, then what model/brand are those receivers?
The Chinese vtx systems use a different set of frequencies. Those that have three or four bands will usually work with the Immersion systems but most who use them complain about the quality. Specifically, the Black Pearl and other Diversity receivers can detect the Immersion but don't seem to do well with it. The Uno receiver picks it up just fine, though.
The Immersion tx and Fatshark receivers usually use 5740, 5760, 5780, 5800, 5820, 5840, 5860MHz
The Chinese systems use 5865M, 5845M, 5825M, 5805M, 5785M, 5765M, 5745M, 5725MHz but also some (not all) use the above freqs, too (and other bands).
Generally, it is best to use the same brand tx/rx if possible but stick with Chinese (Boscam/Black Pearl or other diversity rx) or Immersion/Fatshark in both tx and rx if possible and you will usually get good luck. As was said, positioning of antennas and the type of antennas are important.
