FPV over the beach
This is my Bixler 2 FPV platform, it has a Foxtech 500mw 2.4ghz FPV system, with stock antennas :( .
I gave it eyes and a mustache for character :)
Here is my camera setup. The GoPro just rubber bands on to a peice of balsa wood on the nose. My FPV camera can be found here http://www.foxtechfpv.com/fh18c-520tvl-wide-voltage-mini-camera-ntsc-p-923.html
It is flown on one 2200 mah 3 cell. I get about a 36 minute flight on average with one battery.
I have it on the Rmilec UHF system it is a great UHF system for the price it will only work with old 72mhz Futaba radios though.
Here it is stuffed in the plane.
Here it is installed on my radio.
and here is the front of the radio.
Here is my ground station.
Here are my Fat Shark Dominators, they are really good for the price, comfortable, and the image is really clear i recommend these for any one.

2.5w on 70cm ham band ought to get you a decent range LOS, but make sure you've got your call sign & contact info on there just incase you lose it.
