FPV Video Need some advice

[MJA]

Hello Everyone, im new to the forum and need some help. I'm new to the racing end of quads and purchased an arris 280. What I need is a video TX, I've read it needs to be a 200mw due to size, what I need to know is what's good without breaking the bank. And the next thing is monitor, I can figure out which one to get but what im wondering is do yall prefer goggles over the monitor? Sorry if its a repetitive question but ill be honest I didn't look as I don't have time to wade through 47 pages of information

for cheap and cheerful TX there is, certainly wont break the bank: http://www.hobbyking.com/hobbyking/..._32CH_A_V_200mW_Mini_FPV_Transmitter_v2_.html

To be honest, theyre all pretty cheap so as long as there is some okay reviews on a TX im sure it will be fine.

I use a monitor, my friends who are into racing tend to use goggles, comes down to personal preference i spose

Most of the Boise FPV crew and I use Hawkeye vtxs. They're small, inexpensive, race-band ready, 200mw, and I haven't had an issue yet.

I personally used a monitor at the beginning to get used to FPV and to save money. However, I paid $80 for a set of UFO goggles and haven't turned back since. Goggles make a significant difference in terms of focus, and despite not paying much for them, I haven't had any complaints.
