This DiY 5.8GHz Audio/Video (A/V) receiver kit provides a custom printed circuit board and quality electronic components. Assembly is required; suitable for amateur radio hobbyists and RF technicians.
Airwave's AWM680RX/AWM682RX RF module is included. The kit utilizes small thru-hole components, so electronic soldering experience is essential. Once assembled, all you need to supply is a 5.8GHz antenna, video monitor, and battery power. Our 5.8Ghz transmitter kit (available separately) is a perfect mate to this exciting A/V system.
Using FM modulation, it receives high bandwidth composite video and
stereo audio signals from a compatible A/V transmitter (sold separately). Fully supports NTSC and PAL video formats. The assembled receiver is compact and lightweight.
