The Video Tx Menu
The Video Tx menu shows, graphically, the 5.8GHz frequency band, from low (left) through high (right) frequency.
5 bands are supported, covering the standard ImmersionRC/FatShark frequency bands, plus all of the ‘Boscam’,
Team Black Sheep bands, and also the new ImmersionRC ‘RaceBand’.
Note the need for RaceBand in this hobby is immediately obvious after looking at this graph!
NOTE: Channel 8 of the IRC/FS set cannot be received by 7 channel ImmersionRC or FatShark receivers. Unlocked
Uno/Duo5800 receivers can receive it, as can the new FatShark 4-band RaceBand Dominator module.
WARNING: Please play attention to the legality of the channels that you are using in your area.
While the authorities have been relatively tolerant of emitted power on 5.8GHz, out of band transmission is a more
serious issue.
In the USA, with a Ham license (required to emit more than about 1mW), operation within the 5650MHz to 5925MHz
band is allowed. All 8 RaceBand channels fall within this band, but the outer channels of the Boscam E band are outside
the band.
Within Europe, the Ham band is 5650MHz to 5850MHz, which allows the first 6 RaceBand channels.
NOTE #1: There are several SKUs for the Vortex 150 Mini to allow sales in most countries. Each SKU may
limit power and/or available channels.
NOTE #2: The Vortex 150 Mini is always in ‘Dynamic Power Control’ mode. This limits output power to a
maximum of 25mW before takeoff, and after landing (disarming). Advantages are multiple, including much
lower battery consumption while waiting on the starting grid of a race.
