Hi,
sounds good to me :) -> http://www.rchelimag.com/dji-lightbridge/
Does anybody know alternatives to this DJI System?
I like the idea of having digital HD Video livestream and RC controll in one. :o

I think DJI is the first one.

Just my 2c
That one is older but range and price are awful:

While ago TC explained why those will not be usable for proximity PFV, but if you can live with eg. 1s delay than it might be O.K.

Hey,
thanks for the info, did not know there was a lag around one secound. Thats mad. Hope that realtime HD downlink will be possible in near future. Think this would make flights even more enjoyable :)

Thread about theoretical limitations of HD video streaming....

The solution that I posted link uses multiple receivers and transmitters in parallel and no compression but it has usable distance of maybe 100m and when dropout occurs you have to come very close to reacquire video and it takes 10+ seconds to do so, but it has almost no latency.

I am developing a HD video downlink using a Raspberry PI and Camera. The Latency is very tolerable however, I have yet to flight test the system.

I guess you'r using h264 compression so what's the range :?:

I have pictures of the actually latency but stopped sharing, :mrgreen:
