FPV Smartphone Monitor
Hi guys,
this is a short and simple instructable on how to convert your Android smartphone into a FPV monitor. You will need
- Android Smartphone, I used a Samsung Galaxy Edge S6
- FPViewer, you can get it for free in the Playstore
- FPV receiver and battery to power it
- OTG Micro To USB Adapter (beware, not all smartphone are OTG compatible)
- USB Video Capture Adapter - you can get it here or here
The app also allows you to record your FPV video signal as a mp4 file!
Insert the OTG Adapter Into the USB Video Adapter
Insert the Video Adapter Into the Micro USB Port of Your Smartphone
Connect the USB Video Adapter to the FPV Receiver
- You can either use the composite video cable (yellow plug) or the s-video cable (black plug) for the video signal.
- The red and the white plugs are used for the stereo audio signal.
- Connect the battery to the FPV receiver.
- Ensure that the FPV receiver uses the same frequency as the FPV transmitter.
Open the FPViewer App and Connect
- Download the app.
- Open the app and connect.
- The video signal is now on your smartphone screen. You can choose between fullscreen or virtual reality goggle mode (2 screens). You can record the video signal.
Have fun!
