Meet the TBS UNIFY PRO 5G8 HV RACE, the video transmitter that has become the golden standard for competitive FPV drone racing. This VTX distills the legendary performance of the Unify Pro series into a lightweight, powerful, and reliable package designed specifically for the racetrack. It’s packed with essential features like PitMode, SmartAudio, and CleanSwitch, making it the top choice for pilots building a professional FPV drone kit.
Engineered for Competitive Racing
The UNIFY PRO RACE is purpose-built to give you a competitive edge. With switchable 25mW and 200mW power outputs, it’s perfect for complying with race event regulations while still offering enough power for clear video. The integrated PitMode is a game-changer, allowing you to power on your FPV drone in the pits for testing without interfering with other pilots on the track.
CleanSwitch & SmartAudio Control
Fly with friends and competitors without worry. TBS CleanSwitch technology ensures your VTX powers on and changes channels without causing video interference for others. Paired with SmartAudio V2, you have full remote control over your VTX settings (channel, band, and power) directly from your flight controller’s OSD or radio, eliminating the need for confusing buttons or dipswitches.
Legendary TBS Reliability
This VTX is built to last. It features a robust RF amplifier that famously protects the unit from damage even if it’s accidentally powered on without an antenna attached. The wide 2S-6S input voltage and clean power output make it a reliable and versatile drone part for any high-performance FPV drone.
Important: HAM License & Legal Operation
A HAM radio license is required for legal operation in the USA on certain amateur radio frequencies and at power levels above 25mW. This VTX ships with only legal channels enabled by default. Please consult the user manual for the unlocking procedure and always fly responsibly according to your local laws.
