Askig the pros about this FPV system. I have heard a lot of users on other fourms say that it was thier first system and they are still using it now. It does not come with googles. And I was wondering if fat shark goggles will connect to this system. HK will not answer my question on the matter. They say that they do not have that type of info LOL.

Yes if you are talking about the 200mW 5.8Ghz system from china. The goggles will fit any system. I still have mine, but i now use the integrated RX for the Dominator goggles and 600mW TX. It means i can walk around without long wires coming out of the side of my goggles and getting caught up.

Only with Immersion RC/Fatshark TXs The frequencies are different to the R302/Chinese/Hobbyking style. I fly with a friend, which is great fun chasing around the sky. Problem is, now though we are both on the same system we cannot fly at the same time, even on different frequencies we see ghosting of each others image. So i'm keeping the Chinese one for when we fly together and the Fatshark for everything else.
I think I will hold off the FPV for a while until I am sure I can get the right stuff together. Everytime I go and buy the so called cheap deal I end up spending more money to get things sorted out than I would if I bought the expensive combo. So for right now I"m pleased with just the outcome of my simple video using my gopro. No JELLO and no VIBRATIONS.
Thanks to all you guys for your replies and help I will be back later LOL.

If you need to know what you need just ask. The goggles will work with and system. I would go with a 500 or 600 system though. Better range.

The system i run now is super simple. No wires hanging around. You can't go wrong with this. It's def not the cheapest, but you will never need anything else unles you seriously want to get into FPV with things like diversity, OSD.....and so on. Here is my set up.
This is for reference only, you'll find them cheaper in other places.

I have bought most of my Items from ReadyMadeRC.com Great guy to deal with. He will stand behind all his equipment.
I have used 5.8gHz and it works great for short to Medium range. I now fly 1.3gHz because I want to do long range.
The 300mw 1.3gHz has the same range if not farther than a 500mw in 5.8gHz.
But keep in mind that if you fly 2.4gHz on your radio you can only do 900mHz or 5.8gHz with good results.
Anything like 1.3gHz will kill your radio range if using 2.4 Radio.
Because I use 1.3gHz I converted my 9c Futaba radio to UHF. It want interfere with my 1.3gHz video, plus I can fly out miles now.
I am adding an EZOSD to my plane this weekend so I can get an Idea how far out I have been flying. Along with a lot of other info.
I am in no way an expert , but if you have questions I will give it my best shot to help you with an answer. As will anyone else on here.
This is my ground station I use now.

I'm in process of putting together a system like lee has. You would need the dominator goggles, the 5.8 RX for the goggles, ad an imersion 5.8 tx. Pluss the battery for the goggles. Using the RX that fit In The goggles you don't need a ground station. The station is in the goggles. And you are wireless. Just look at what Lee posted up for parts above!
