5.8 GHz Video TX RX Module
No. 20007RC TX Module
Version 04/12
No. 20008RC RX Module
No. 20011RC TX + RX Module
1. INTENDED USE
This product is intended to work with RC Logger PRO (10002RC, not included) or any device
which provides audio video (AV) output signals for wireless transmission. The TX module
transmits AV signals to the RX module via a 5.8 GHz RF channel (out of eight RF channels).
The AV signals can be visualized / made audible through the LCD monitor for 5.8 GHz Video
RX module (20009RC, not included) or any device which supports RCA AV signal input. The TX
module is powered by an RC receiver (not included). The RX module is powered by a built-in
rechargeable Li-ion battery.
For safety and approval purposes (CE), you must not rebuild and/or modify this product. If you
use the product for purposes other than those described above, the product may be damaged. In
addition, improper use can cause hazards such as short circuiting, re, electric shock etc. Read
the instructions carefully and keep them. Make this product available to third parties only together
with its operating instructions.
