Good. Cheap. Fast. - Pick two.
This truth especially applies to wireless video. It's live, so there's fast chosen.
When I mean to say is that it's a prety much given, that cheap wirless video sucks, and you have to pay a lot to get a good quality signal.
Most all lower cost (less than many thousands of dollars) wireless video units are designed for monitoring purposes. Trying to send a production signal (like to broadcast or a projector for public display) often does not work.
Look into either renting a higher end unit if possible, or re-evaluate how badly you need to be fully wireless. Paying for a roll of coax cable and a grip or two to wrangle it may be the cheapest way.

I've used a couple of different wireless systems, and I can't say that I fully trust either of them. The first one we had was some cheapo consumer unit that was snow city; I finally got tired of that and ordered the Laird Waveshot (which doesn't seem to be made anymore), which is a lot better, but still can have some interference and might not be up to snuff for a paying customer. (The customer that we use it for, who gets the whole show as a donation, is pretty thrilled with it, though.
