Lol you mean when she divorces me

Man i shouldn't joke about this, the phantoms only 3 weeks old oops..

You sound just like the rest of us.

I've had my phantom since Christmas. I already have more EXTRA into it than the original price itself.

Tell the wife the antenna was $25.00. LOL. That's what I do.

My biggest fear is that if I die.... She sells all of my toys for what I told her they cost.

Is dbs easy to install? Watched lots of vids but it always different when you physically do it yourself.

Yeah. It's pretty easy to install. I watched the videos too. The hardest part is getting the factory glue off of the connectors. Just use a super sharp exacto knife and take your time.

Yeah, the area I was in was wide open. Zero wifi interference. It was over open water.

I got my Phantom for Christmas but a little early. Had my DBS installed before Christmas.

And yes it's easy to install.

It's just personal preference. I did mine with the 2 2.4ghz to the right and the 1 5.8ghz to the left. So that it matches the antenna. You can put them however you like, so long as the cables reach and there's nothing in the way inside.

Make it better how?

I'm guessing on the antenna panel the port 1 is 5.8 and port 2 and 3 are 2.4
