Question: I've just started using this VTX with SmartAudio and the Betaflight LUA script on Taranis, and I wonder if using the LUA script actually changes the power output to 800mw if I haven't manually unlocked the unit? On a locked VTX straight out of the package, the LUA script will let me select 800mw, but I have no way of knowing if it actually puts out 800mw as I don't have an RF power meter.

@@mybluebelly in simple words PIT MODE refers to a mode in which the VTx transmits at negligible power (if at all, don't know if some brands refer to their 0mW setting as pit mode). They call it PIT mode because it is very important to use it for example in a race, when powering the quad in the "pits" (like the pits in car races), where you don't want to affect other pilots in the pits or in the race. This is why I am worried that maybe you power your Unify in pit mode, but the LEDs you described don't indicate that.

I hate having to sit down for hours trying to figure things out but i don`t have much choice here. YT is a big help ofcourse :) I`m gonna ask you a couple questions and i would be very grateful if you would take the time & respond. What i`ve done so far is hooked up my 800mw VTX to a 3S 450mah battery and using a Triumph RHCP antenna on a separate battery. I have an FS Recon. First time i got a live feed right away so figured this was plug & play. Next time i had to browse around a little bit before getting the feed. So far i figure, good now all i need to do is get airborne. What happens is this: signal rapidly declines from a perfect feed upclose to a screen full of snow a mere 10 feet away. UGH! I`ve tried another CP antenna with the very same result. I tried with and without the motor system hooked up but no difference. I have my vtx directly behind an Eflite Park 400 motor (slowflyer) so the unit has sufficient cooling. What am i doing wrong? I learned how to toggle between channels, band and power today using the blue/red lights and managed to unlock the power setting so i set it to 800mw. I still don`t understand what channels or bands i need to select and if they need to match/corelate with eachother. Today i selected channel 4 and the band with 4 blue blinks. please tell me what channels and what band i should select and just in case i have a dud, how do i diagnose this?

OK we need to start from the basics here :) It is too much to type so you will definitely need to dig into explanatory youtube videos or forum posts to comprehend everything. But for the problem you describe I suspect that your VTx and your Recon goggles are not on the same frequency. Channel 4 and Band 4, according to the manual of your VTx, should be F4, which is 5800GHz. You should set the Recon goggles also on F4, manually. If you scan manually or automatically (if there is such feature on the Recon goggles) when being close to the VTx, you will receive a video feed from adjacent frequencies, but this signal will degrade very quickly as soon as you move further away. Try setting both on the same frequency and let me know. Better to take everything one step at a time, I don't want to confuse you :)
