SECTION 1
Overview
Congratulations on your purchase of one of the smallest TV transmitter kit to be made
available - Plantraco’s PTV16C Wireless Video Camera Kit.
Ultralightweight microelectronics allow this kit to be installed in the Plantraco Tri-Turbofan
Blimp – effectively turning your indoor airship into a mobile "Eye in the Sky Blimp-Cam”.
(See Fig 1.0)
Your PTV16 can also be installed in the Plantraco Desktop Rover, (our
incredibly tiny remote controlled tracked vehicle), giving you full "Mars Lander" style
video telepresence from up to 100 feet away!
(See Fig 1.1)
The PTV16C kit can also be
used separately for experimental TV broadcast in accordance with part 15 of FCC Rules
(see page 10).
Once assembled, this low power transmitter will broadcast a Color TV signal to your
Color (NTSC) television set tuned to UHF channel 16. For Best Results, use a Manually
Tunable TV Receiver with fine tuning - Handheld TV sets (for example CASIO Model
EV660) with digital scan tuning are reccomended for the best continuous and clear UHF
Channel 16 reception.
We have carefully designed the PTV16 to comply with part 15 of FCC regulations so as
not to cause interference with other electrical devices. Although the PTV16 is a very low
power transmitter, 150 foot operating range is easily achieved, and can be extended
with the use of more sophisticated UHF TV receiver antennas. This wireless video
camera is small, lightweight, reasonably priced and will provide you with many hours of
fun!
This camera works well with our Tri-Turbofan Blimp, our Desktop Rover, and is ideal for
Model Train enthusiasts, R/C cars, boats, and helicopters. You will find many uses for
this small wireless camera.
No downconverter needed! Works with any TV!
You can carry your pocket sized TV
set with you wherever you are using your R/C vehicles! Handheld TV’s and manually
tuned TV sets provide solid reception and you can take them with you anywhere!
