VM1373R Video Receiver Module

Order the VM1373R video receiver module for your drone - choose a stable FPV signal!

VM1373R Video Receiver Module for Drone is a key component for receiving analog video signals. It is installed on your FPV goggles or ground station to receive images from the drone. This receiver provides a stable and high-quality image to the display. You will be able to see what your quadcopter's camera sees in real time. This is the basis for an immersive first-person flight experience.

This module receives a radio signal at a frequency of 5.8 GHz from the drone's video transmitter. It amplifies the weak signal and converts it back into a video stream. The resulting video is transmitted to the glasses screen or monitor. The quality of reception depends on the sensitivity of the receiver and the antenna used. Reliable reception is the key to confident piloting and flight safety.

• High receiver sensitivity for a stable signal over a distance.

• Supports all popular frequency bands and protocols (Raceband, FatShark).

• Compact size and light weight for integration into glasses or helmet.

• Low power consumption to increase battery life.

• Easy to set up and manage via buttons or external display.

How does this analog video receiver work?

The receiver constantly scans the airwaves in the 5.8 GHz range. It picks up the radio signal that is emitted by the video transmitter on the drone. Internal circuits amplify this signal and clear it of interference. Then demodulation occurs - extracting the original video signal. This signal is sent to the display of the FPV goggles, turning into a picture.

A key feature is the ability to use multiple antennas. A Diversity system with two separate antennas is often used. The receiver automatically selects the antenna with the best signal. This greatly improves image stability when maneuvering the drone. You get less noise and image dropouts at critical moments.

Specifications and setup

The VM1373R receiver has standard parameters for its class. Operating frequency range 5.645 - 5.925 GHz. Supports 48 channels in 7 frequency groups (including Raceband). The sensitivity of the receiver is very high, which improves the range. It is powered by a voltage of 3.3V - 5.5V, consuming a small current. Audio output allows you to hear sound from the on-board microphone.

The functionality includes automatic and manual channel search. Scan mode quickly finds the active transmitter channel. You can manually select a specific channel for group flights. Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI) helps guide the antenna. Some versions have an RSSI output for display on the glasses OSD. Control is carried out using buttons or through an external controller with a display.

This module is compatible with most analog FPV systems. It can be installed in popular glasses Fat Shark, Skyzone, Eachine. Also used as part of independent ground stations. Ideal for beginner pilots and experienced racers. Its reliability has been tested under various flight conditions.

Installing the module is usually very simple. The glasses have a special compartment for external receivers. You need to insert the module into the slot and secure it. Connect antennas to SMA or RP-SMA connectors. Supply power from the built-in battery of the glasses or an external source. After this, you can turn on the glasses and start tuning channels.

For maximum efficiency, it is important to use good antennas. Circular (patch) antennas provide uniform reception in all directions. Directional antennas (such as helical antennas) provide greater range. The Diversity system often combines both types. The quality of the antenna is often more important than the absolute power of the transmitter.
