Fat Shark 11 RC Vision Systems Operational advice            For best performance, select a channel that has the least amount of interference. While the transmitter is turned OFF, turn on the video headset and look at the screen as you check each channel. Clear channels will have a consistent static background. Channels with interference will have horizontal static lines. Always perform a range test before flying. This includes AV and RC controls.
