FPV for a Live Stream
One fantastic feature to have on your drone is the ability to see
what it sees in real time. This is made possible by adding a video
transmitter. The transmitter, or vTX (see Figure 8-3), takes the
live stream from your camera and broadcasts it over a specific
frequency range to a receiver, or rTX, on the ground. The
