Terrible range on FPV Set Up - Please Help

Does the antenna have to be pointed perpendicular to the transmission like a radar dish?

Roughly... it seems pretty good in most orientations but face on works best. If you are using it with a diversity receiver it's interesting to see when the patch overrides the other (in my case a Helical) antenna and I find that the patch does about 70% of the work, the helical only really kicks in once I send my P2 into the distance.....

Will different channels make a difference? I thought they were just there so you could differentiate from others if you were flying at the same time.

I know I don't have the best FPV system but mine seems to be cutting out way more than a friend of mine who has the same one.

I get static even when it's 50ft away :-/

Yes makes difference..

So does the higher number = better/stronger signal?

Yes it means.
