I thought this was kinda cool. Someone from a Facebook multirotor group i'm on posted it.

HDMI converter that is already stripped down and made to mount on Droidworx landing gear.

Kilby, nice install but $250 for it seems a bit steep when the board costs about $40. (http://www.amazon.com/HDMI-Composit...DBP0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1334245287&sr=8-1). Pull the board out of the case and make a mount to the cross bars. Buy a recom to drive 5 volts to the board. Maybe I'm missing something but....

I was actually thinking the same thing, but I figured someone here might enjoy seeing it. If nothing else, it can give you a good idea about how to make your own.

This looked familiar, rather similar to our combined HDMI converter and 100mW Tx.

Remote you are correct that the base board doesn't have a recom. Think I paid $5 or so for a RECOM brand from www.digikey.com where I get a lot of those type of parts. So $45 vs $250.
