VTX recommendations?

[jlgaustin]

So I have a eachine wizard with the stupid 90 degree connected for the VTX antenna, terrible design. Had a nice crash today flying and antenna broke off. Going to mount the antenna straight out the back with a new VTX, are most of them more or less the same quality or is there something that really stands out above the rest? Thinking of getting a couple of those eachine 25/200/600 switchable ones.

Also do most people on quads this size running 3s/4s batteries run 600mw for video? Maybe 200 is enough?

Thanks for any help.

There are lots of options available. Depending on your budget. I like the idea of the selectable frequencies too.

Depends on what you want to do. Race at events - 25mW is probably the limit. Racing with friends - 200mW or less. Solo flying - sky is the limit.

I went with this switchable TX526 from Eachine, figured I would try that first and see how it works. If it's crappy I am only out 12 bucks and can use as a backup.

It will probably be 90% as good, without the wand features and auto power reduce.
