RTL8188FU/RTL8188FTV driver for FPV.
For archive only.
No plan for FPV, as RTL873xBU is a better low-end choice.
Download pre-built OpenIPC firmware with this driver integrated here to help test.
Original driver: RTL8188FU_Linux_v5.15.3-6-g1a2e952f9.20230217.tar
Please do not choose this adapter for FPV unless you have less than a $0.5 budget. (
Tested:
- Build on kernel 6.8
- TX power unlocked (same as the 8812eu driver), but don't set it too high
- Monitor & injection, 802.11b(CCK)/g/n rates all works well
Need test or can be further investigated:
- 5M/10M bandwidth, only tested on a spectrum analyzer and the spectrum seems good
Not working:
- 40MHz bandwidth on RTL8188FTV
- STBC/LDPC not supported by hardware
- ...
To-Do:
- EDCCA patch
- MTU
- Test with OpenIPC
Someone: “RTL8731BU (~$2.5) is too expensive (for FPV). Any choice at $0.3 ~ $0.4?”
