TS5828 and RX mounting ideas
Posted: Mon Jan 22, 2018 7:27 pm
Hi All
Getting a few modules together for 5.6 GHz.
The TX is a 600mW Transmitter and I gather is going to get very hot.
In a drone it has forced air cooling but on terra firma it will require heatsinking.
I wonder how other members are mounting these as they have no fixing points.
my first thoughts are a perspex sheet over each unit with perhaps a piece of rubber over the transmitter to protect the transmitter components from being crushed by the plastic sjeet.
The transmitter would then be kept under pressure on a flat sheet with a smear of silicon compond in between to aid heat transfer.
Next step is an OSD generator.
I wonder what simple camera arrangements members have interfaced to these?
I have looked on ebay for a video cam with a composite video out.
still not decided yet which one to go for.
