This is the red version of the Caddx Ratel 2 1/1.8 inch 1200TVL FPV camera. The listing says it has superb night vision and gives clear, sharper images, using a high-quality 1/1.8 inch starlight Super WDR sensor with a sensitivity of up to 0.0001 lux.
It offers 8ms low latency, 4:3 and 16:9 image sizes, PAL/NTSC switching and a separate OSD menu.
The specification list gives 1200TVL resolution, a 60dB signal-to-noise ratio (AGC off), a 5 to 40V input and CVBS video output.
Starlight HDR sensor: 1/1.8 inch for night vision and high contrast.
0.0001 lux: extremely low illumination rating.
8ms latency: low delay for fast flying.
Switchable formats: 4:3 or 16:9, PAL or NTSC.
OSD menu: adjust the picture using the included board.
Red colour: a red housing option.
An analog FPV camera sends a live composite video signal to the video transmitter on the drone. The image sensor turns light into an electrical signal, the camera processes it and outputs a video signal that the transmitter sends to your goggles. TVL (television lines) is a measure of horizontal resolution, and a bigger sensor usually collects more light, which helps in dim conditions.
The lens sets the field of view: a wider angle shows more of the scene and exaggerates the sense of speed, while a narrower angle shows a more natural picture. Features such as WDR (wide dynamic range) balance very bright and dark areas, DNR reduces noise and auto gain control adjusts the picture as the light changes. Low latency matters, because delay between what the camera sees and what you see makes flying harder.
Set the video standard (PAL or NTSC) to match your goggles, power the camera within its rated voltage range and mount it firmly so vibration does not blur the image. Tilt the camera up for fast, forward-pitched flying. Keep the lens clean and use a lens protector or ND filter where suitable.
