TBS Unify Pro HV 5G8 Race VTX (SMA)

The TBS Unify Pro HV 5G8 Race is a dedicated 5.8GHz analog video transmitter tailored for FPV racing quads. Stripped down to essential race-day output levels to reduce thermal mass, this VTX accepts direct 2-6S LiPo voltage and integrates Team BlackSheep's signature CleanSwitch and PitMode technologies for safe, interference-free event operation.

Key features

• Adjustable 25mW and 200mW output power for strict compliance at race events.

• SmartAudio V2.0 protocol allows remote channel, band, and power changes directly through the flight controller OSD or radio.

• CleanSwitch technology ensures the transmitter powers up or switches channels without bleeding over into adjacent frequencies.

• High-voltage direct input handles power spikes up to 26V while providing a clean 5V output to an FPV camera.

• Chassis-mountable SMA connector handles direct antenna strikes without stressing the main VTX board.
