theDual collinear ? just over a meter.How long are thous antennas.??
Pro, I tested this afternoon. I was able to get over 1000ft with the Sunhans and turned around. My u.FL cables are good I believe. I tested again with just the antenna attached to the remote, and made it out to 3000ft before no signal, adjusted my height but still could not get past that distance. Will is in contact with me on a solution!
When checking cables , you can do a basic DC continuity test , ( without the cable connected and both ends free ). This will prove the continuity , U.fl , coax etc but make sure you disconnect them first . if you put a meter on them an have the end connected , then you actually introducing a voltage to the antenna receive input which is not good.I went out and did a check on my u.FL cables, all 3 are are reading around .2 ohms with a lead on the center pin, one on the outer connector. Also checked to see if any were spun around inside and they all look clean. DB, I actually no longer have my old antenna, I sold it to help pay for the Extreme.
Hey Beau whats the word? You find exact problem?

Nice! Do you need antennas to use while you get yours taking care of? Im sure i got something you can borrow in the meantime so you can fly! Let me know

Wow, good to see you got it already! That's a huge difference in size for 2db, the 17 looks a lot thicker though!Just received BeauS's 17dB 5.8 extreme panel in the mail. My next few flights will be putting it through good flight paths w/ my p3S and his 5.8 gold amp. See what I produce because it was not producing well for him ( we both live in Iowa)
Heres some comparison pics of his white 17 dB panel vs my black 19dB panelView attachment 60187View attachment 60188View attachment 60189
Big difference for 2dB's!! Makes me want to open Beau's panel!!
DONT WORRY I'm not going to BeauS! Stay tuned!

Ok so this is the first I have heard about this type of range booster and that is pretty awesome!! My question, however, is how do you make the smart batteries last long enough to go that kind of range and back? My batteries last maybe 25 mins max. Is that long enough to go that distance and back or is there a way to get more flight time out of the batteries?
Hey Beau I may be wrong but I think yours is smaller because of genetics! lol just kidding. For reals tho I think DB's is a single and the one you have is stacked....again I may be wrong but that's how my Laird is...mine is 8" x 8" x 1-1/8".Wow, good to see you got it already! That's a huge difference in size for 2db, the 17 looks a lot thicker though!
Oh man it's hot, hopefully it's a little cooler tomorrow morning but I think it will be even hotter tomorrow. Anyway, you got some skills DB, that setup looks sweet, tough as nails!Here's the way I wanted to do it. But as you probably know BeauS, it feels like 115° and 95% humidity today, and I'm still working outside till 5:30. So I might not make the flight till morningView attachment 60318View attachment 60319View attachment 60320View attachment 60321
