DarwinFPV VT5804 HV MAX 5.8G 1W VTX
Of the 81 other 5.8 GHz analog video transmitters in our database, 44 have a lower maximum power than the VT5804 HV MAX 5.8G 1W VTX (1000 mW, 30 dBm), 6 the same and 31 a higher one; the class median is 800 mW. The VT5804 HV MAX 5.8G 1W VTX steps through 200 / 800 / 1000 mW, which is 23 / 29 / 30 dBm: the top level is 7 dB above the lowest, about 2.2x the free-space range on the same antennas.

Where this data comes from
Read 2026-09-24 off DarwinFPV's own shop. The page is prose - 'it can stably output 1W power for a long time' is its only figure - and everything numeric here was read at full resolution off the module's own case label in the brand's product photographs, the eighth burst's RushFPV method: 'VT5804 HV MAX / 5.8G 40CH 1W VTX / 200mW/800mW/1000mW', with the pad rail beneath it reading SMART AUDIO, VIDEO, 5V OUT, GND, GND, 7-24V IN. The back of the same board (image 4 of 7) repeats the rail as DATA / VIDEO / 5V OUT / GND / GND / 7-24V, so input_voltage is stated twice by the hardware. weight_g 6.7 is off the brand's scale photograph (image 5 of 7). mount_mm is empty: the board is the usual four-armed 30.5 shape but neither the label, the page nor any photograph states a spacing, and the arms are not a measurement. The back is also silkscreened 'XF5804', which is the board's own part number and not DarwinFPV's - see the PandaRC VT5804 AIR in this catalogue for the same shop selling another maker's board under its own title.
