Cool even I plan to do the same! But first I should be able to setup with hk radio, my OSD and other fpv setups are on the way.

@foamybuilder

Few questions for you..

1.) What FPV system have you finally decided upon? 900 or 2.4 or 5.8? and Power ?
2.) What camera do you plan to use for your PFV flight?
3.) Are you planning for any stabalization system like 21AP?
4.) Which OSD?
5.) Planning for the FrSky radio gear with Turnigy 9X?
6.) Do you plan to record your flights ? What ground station do you plan to use?
7.) Are you interested in autonomous flying? I may be doing it later with my 605 radio.

I usually like to shy away with these questions as people may not like my poor mans setup as I always be searching for low cost and reliable products.
1.) 1.2ghz sunsky with dual notch filter
2.) Its a cmos camera which I thought the output was much better than hk cams. (its just a part of research I may be wrong)
3.) No, initially I wanted to go for copilot with eagle tree combo. Now I would be just using rate gyros for pitch and ailerons.
4.) Its a low cost one (http://www.foxtechfpv.com/foxtech-ce-osd-v121-new-radar-function%EF%BC%88new-switch-regulator%EF%BC%89-p-170.html)
5.) Yes, possibly first launch will be with my HK radio without pantilt
6.) Yes, with Easy cap. (Once I shift to a bigger plane I should be setting up with my sanyo Xacti hd cam)
7.) No. The osd i mentioned has expandability for autopilot I guess. But wont be using this gear for autopilot.

I do not plan to exceed 700-800grams with fpv equipment, dont want a flying fortress initially.

Thanks for your response.
There is nothing to be shy of.  Anyway there are not many into FPV flying in India. I mean its a different league.

Cyclops OSD are good and are preferred by people who do not want every information to be displayed.
How far have you reached with your setup? Have you received all the components? Started with the build?

Anyway, wish you all the best for your first flight. Do keep us posted.

Thats a lot of Info for me to digest at once

Nice fpv gear you got there saurabh !

lol and we both have the same fpv plane

hmm... somehow i feel the vtx antennas are too heavy. from the pic it looks similar to mine.

i have rad some where in the thread that a range of 25 km , like which type of radio can control this much long distance , i know about 500,1000,1500mw fpv but these are only for signals ,not for the control,

plz guide,

you get something called dragon link

dragon link or chain link.!! both claim to be 25 kms.. but vids and reviews shows a max of 12 kms..
