CP Antenna testing.

This is possibly the least exciting of my vids. I spent 3 lipo's just pottering around and getting used to the different 'drop outs' I get at different positions and antenna orientations.

That`s pretty good results Rich, where did you find the antenna is positioned best ?

Aitch that's the SN555 camera through an Immersion 600mw vtx using 3DJim's CP Antenna's. To me the real test was being out 1km over that house at 70m AGL :)

Ian I actually started off testing my patch antenna but the polarisation must be cocked up. On the back of the antenna there's a double arrow saying 'polarisation' and showing east to west and I have the cable coming out the top. It was breaking up at about 200m, so clearly wrong - I'll have to chat to Jim about what polarisation he's done.

I must say the CP's are quite solid and I found it best at about 45 degrees to the left side (looking from back) co's that's the circuit I normally fly for flying out, but close in and low it's better straight up, but there are lots of reflections etc etc. Being more into flight cam vids than HD I'd like to improve the situation, but not sure what else I could do?
