Please update if you have any progress. I have tried with 2.4 GHz band and seems like there is some interference between the flie's frequency and the camera's frequency, even if I choose the farthest possible frequency pair (with CF1).

One of the first things I read about FPV on the net is that the control frequency and the video frequency should never be in the same band, because of issues with interferences.
The CF1 and CF2 are using a 2.4GHz RF connection for data. So the video band should either be 5.8 GHz or something like 900 MHz (depending on which frequencies are legally available in your country).

I ordered the sub nano set from fpv hobby. It came from Turkey to USA in about 4 days. Everything worked exactly as described for the most part. (well..until I broke the camera, though.

Currently, waiting on a new one from Amazon.)

Only problem I found was that he stated on his web site that the receiver defaults to 2.468 ghz. I found this to be incorrect on the one I received. After reading the datasheet, I was able to get it working by setting a few of the pins HIGH.
Also, I was able to transmit video and fly the crazyflie in the same room with minimal interference. Unfortunately, just no camera yet.
Just thought I'd share my experience with fpvhobby. I did find some transmitter/ receiver pairs on ebay significantly cheaper. Just fyi. I ordered one of them just to try it. I'll let you all know when I get them if they're any good.
