You're gonna want a battery mod next!
Yeah, the antenna mods really beef up the reliability of the signal and video feed over short distances and directly overhead, too, which is where my stock transmitter would often lose signal, even with the antennas parallel to the ground. Really messes up your spherical panorama shots when it keeps ascending to your RTH height and changes direction on its own, You keep having to descend back to the chosen pano altitude and start all over!Never tried em broJust antennas . That's enough to keep me busy .
Absolutely. They increase range by another 20% or so, and give more robust stability at closer distances. Only downside is the extra battery you have to use with them, and the extra weight of the amps themselves and the platform they mount on. Also, you cannot use them with a dead amp battery or with the battery off, as you can if you didn't have their circuitry impedence. I keep forgetting to turn the amp battery on, and it immediately starts RTH at about 400 feet away, until I turn the battery on, and then cancel RTH! Annoying, but I keep forgetting.
Disconnecting the amps electrically to fly without them is not practical because of the difficulty of tightening and untightening the connectors in a tight space. So, I just leave mine permanently attached, and charge the battery after every hour of flying, and keep an extra battery on hand, too. Don't forget to turn the amp battery off after each flight too!

I got mine from FPVCustoms.com. They are currently out of stock.
Cool. Same here, as far as the video still being weaker, and still dropping out for seconds at long distance, while transmitter signal is rarely ever actually lost, so no RTH issues like before. As I understand it, the video feed can really only be improved by a birdside mod that costs about $150, and it can be made 18x stronger than it is now. I'm considering it.
Hey that's just me .lol Looks good and glad you got more distance .You have any issues with the install ?
Well that's great and if ya decide for any reason ya need to put em back I have 2 I took out .
