FPV Gimbal: Something assembled on FPV plane to mount the FPV camera.

AV receiver: It is used for receiving the signal sent by the radio transmitter.

The video display: It is used for displaying the video received by the AV receiver. During a FPV flying, we can easily find whether the signal is strong or week to ensure the FPV flying in an excellent condition.

The Antennas: Antennas have a very important role in the performance of your FPV system. The bigger the sensibility of the Antenna connected to the receiver, the better and the stronger the video signal will be.
