It provides continuous coverage from 400MHz to 6GHz from a hardware perspective. With firmware updates, it can interfere with any frequency. A higher possibility of interference is offered, especially for wide-spectrum FPV. Additionally, Hunter supports the customization of frequency ranges to meet specific customer requirements.”
