    Does Black Pearl monitor work with the IRC tx or not?

    Hi audioscience. I would go with the immersion rc 600mW transmitter and the 7 channel Black pearl monitor. Although there is a 32 channel version of the screen, i saw a post indicating that some people had experienced issues with it Adrian

    Does Black Pearl monitor work with the IRC tx or not?

    @dbolner, Hiya, I've just picked up the 7channel version Black Pearl monitor, together with the 600mW version of the immersion transmitter and spironets, and can confirm it works flawlessly. I left the dip switches on the transmitter alone. Just make sure that depending on your location you...

    Phantom 2 with Boscam 5.8Ghz 500mw Video Transmitter

    4 bleeps after initialisation

    Budget carry case for Phantom - UK only

    Hey Dewey, Don't suppose you know the product number of your Maplin case. I've just ordered the £49 version (need to be sure) as CPC cancelled my order. It turns out they have no stock left, and Customer Services informed me it would be at least 2 months before any more will be in Cheers Adrian

    Phantom second flight over Oxfordshire
