Pilot View from Hobby Lobby

[DR10044]

One of the guys at our club just ordered one of these things. It runs on 2.4. Interesting to see how it plays with our 2.4 systems.

PilotView FPV 2400 Safety Guidelines

• READ THE OWNER'S MANUAL COMPLETELY BEFORE ATTEMPTING ANY FPV FLIGHT.

• As with all RC flights, check your equipment carefully. Make sure your battery is fully charged and range check your radio equipment before EVERY flight.

• Always fly this 2.4 GHz product with a 72 MHz radio.

• If piloting with FPV, always fly sitting down with a spotter using a buddy box. Video "glitching" is to be expected when flying FPV and help is required for safe use.

• This product is designed with a range consistent with a typical flying field. Never allow the RC airplane to leave visual range of the field.

• Fly in a safe area as you would any RC aircraft. This product is not designed for high-density public areas.

• Know your flying field! Pick out major visual references before takeoff which will help orient you in flight.

• 2.4 GHz has only four channels - post yours on the field frequency board.

• Never place your equipment closer than 30 feet to the nearest RC pilot flying a 2.4 GHz radio.

• PilotViewFPV is designed for personal use only at an RC flying field - professional use is not permitted.

• FPV is a dynamic and growing part of our hobby - we recommend the FPV Safety Thread on RCGroups.com as a frequent place to visit to learn the latest about equipment and safe use of FPV technology.

Seen one being setup at the Nall by the HL boys. I'm not sure if was running or not but they had it and intended to use it.

I really don't see it causing any grief to the higher quality 2.4 Ghz transmitters. Maybe a few good range checks before flying it but if you turned it on prior to turning on your Tx and Rx then they will find clear channels away from where that device is transmitting for sure.
