27mHz and 2.4gHz conflict?

[jtaylor]

Going to put a small camera and one of those 2.4gHz video senders in a
radio-control boat. R/C is 27mHz.

Is there anything in particular I should do to get the two radio systems to
co-exist the best? Tie the grounds together? Orient the antennae in some
special configuration?

As a sort-of-relevant data-point, I'll mention that none of the 3
FM recievers were interfered by by a 2.4Ghz antenna touching their cases/
antennas.

I can't see that it'll matter. Try it in a non-critical test first though
(ie. don't point the boat at Niagara Falls until you're sure you still have
control.)
