Sounds good... if you are doing 72MHz you can use any freq. In that case I like the 1.3 MHz the best.... thats just me, because where I fly there are a lot of trees and hills sometimes.
Also there seems to be more ground station antennas made for that Freq. than any other. A large group to pick from to fit your needs.
You should get well over 2 miles with a 300mw system and a good antenna. And less interference than 900MHz.
With the right antenna you can punch through trees and buildings unlike the 5.8MHz ....
I noticed when I flew a 5.8 system out over 3/4 mile and went behind trees (with leaves)
my screen would white out. I had to climb up above the trees to get signal back.
All Freq. 5.8GHz ,2.4GHz, 1.3GHz and 900Mhz can all be used in the US just make sure when you order that there is not a note saying
this model is for INTERNATIONAL USE there are 2 versions of some video transmitters sometimes.
And note if you use 2.4GHz you could hurt other flyers on that freq. it may interfere with there radio... just a thought.
As far as being legal in the US... The use and operation of these products in the USA and other countries may require an amateur/ham radio license, and some countries may forbid its use entirely.
As far as the US goes I do believe you need to have the amateur/ham radio license. It is all up to you if you get one.
