In this episode of Flite Test, Josh and Josh show us the EDF FPV! This is an EDF jet that we made FPV! We also made our video receiver and plane transmitter into a handheld ground station! Watch this episode to see what we did.
Below are some photos of the process of building the handheld ground station.
An RCA DVD player for the car that comes with a 2nd monitor!
The 2nd monitor is the same size as the one with the DVD player built in. So it should have some room to add some goodies!
Took apart the monitor and the video RX. Now we get to mash them together!
It took a little work. I had to break away some pieces to get everything to fit.
I ended up chewing away more than I expected :[
Still looks fairly discreet.
Now I need to make a mount for the screen with armature wire.
Also had to move the controller TX antenna out of the way.
Add a little hot glue (like always) and we're ready to mount the monitor!
All done!!
Thanks for watching!

I'm surprised I haven't seen more of this set-up around, I assumed there must have been some fatal downside to it. Glad to find out I'm not the only one using it.
