Best FPV Channel for Flying in a GroupĪlthough channels in a band generally have decent separations, the neighbouring channels could still be overlapping with each other and cause interference. I will touch on that in a bit more detail later. For example for Raceband, R8 would be a good choice. If you are flying in the house (for example a tiny whoop), you probably have a 5.8GHz WiFi router around, in which case it’s best to use a channel away from the WiFi frequency (5170MHz – 5835MHz). Otherwise just pick the first channel in a band, like R1 or F1 which is easy to access and remember :) If you have the time, perhaps go through all the channels and find the one that works the best for you. If they are tuned to 5700MHz, then the best channels would be E1 or R2. It’s hard to know the exact tuning of an antenna, unless you have the equipment to test them, so I wouldn’t worry about that too much. Assuming they are both tuned to 5800MHz, then the performance is going to be the best on channel F4 (Fatshark 4) or R5 (Raceband 5). For example Raceband, R1 usually has higher output power than R8.Īnother thing to take into account is the tuning of your antennas (on VTX and VRX).

As a tendency from my past testing, lower frequency channels often output higher power for some reason. I always test output power when I review VTX so you might be able to find the answers there. You can find out with testing equipment, like the ImmersionRC RF Power Meter. In certain VTX, some channels output more power than others. However there are still some considerations in selecting the best channel. If you fly solo, you can basically use any channel you want.

Analog FPV System Bandīack in the days, the majority of video transmitter only supported 8 channels (one band), and different brands would use different bands on their VTX’s. Each band has a unique set of frequencies, though some frequencies may be repeated on other bands. The other bands are rarely used but they do exist. The commonly used 5.8GHz analog bands are A, B, E, F and R.

The more advanced RC video cameras shoot in HD, record audio and can snap still images from the sky! Record and share your flights with friends or family with RC Superstores FPV cameras, systems and parts.By knowing where the channels are located in the 5.8GHz frequency spectrum, the channel bandwidth, and how much separation there is between channels can help avoid video interference. The top-selling DJI Phantom drone does well with Flysights Black Pearl FPV combo.
