Maxx VS Terminator. Long distance antenna shootout!

[MasterBlaster]

This is the exact view I flew from sitting in a char. I aimed the max above the white car

Lots of trees and lots of wifi signals!

I'll fly it again tonight when I get back from flying long distance and get some screen shots.

And you was able to make it 5 to 6000 feet! What more can you ask out of an antenna

 

[MasterBlaster]

Agreed. I am very happy.
And very excited to fly in a somewhat open area this evening

Mail day. Cracked open the Liehou. There is a rivet (for the ground) in the center, so I couldn't pull it all the way open.

So it looks like the nameplate is attached to the gray panel and that is where the hole is on the Terminator and the sticker is placed. So it is at least easy to speculate that that panel is the same bodywork that the terminator is built from

In comparing yours to what I can see in looking at the panel the holes on the board are the same, and the copper pattern looks to be the same around the edges from what I can tell.

I'm no expert, but I don't think paint has any effect even if it is that thick as long as it doesn't have any metal flakes in it

Nice! I have no houses behind me for a couple miles so that will probably a lot also.

I have a 2 story house be hidden me. I keep telling the husband to make sure his wife ( in her early 30's) keep her clothes on.

Are we still talking about antennas???
I think the hole in the gray cover of the terminator comes from Horizon busting the nameplate off the Chinese panel, go back and check out the pictures of the Chinese panels nameplate and tell me what you think

I'll agree with you on that.

If mine is setup the same way. I'll see if I can crack it open. I have glue. JB weld is my friend.
