    FPV Recovery Boat

    Soooo I FPV'd my new Horizon Harbor Tug recovery boat. Figure it'll make it easier to line up long-distance recoveries. Get close with line-of-sight, then switch to first person to get hooked up with the stricken boat. It was also fun and I was able to do it with parts I had on hand... I think it looks relatively clean, considering I have to leave the VTx exposed for cooling purposes

    I did the exact same thing, and it works very well!

      I did the same with an old drone monitor, the camera/tx combos are pretty cheap.

          Sure Ray, this one worked pretty well for me and even somehow kept working after I dunked it [emoji3].


          You would still need a screen/rx or goggles, I had one already but something like this should work.
