Mid to Long range, begginer questions

[REX]

Hi all

I was having a lot of fun with my green hornet from iflight. But the video signal was very poor and I hardly managed to rescue it.


Is there something I could buy to improve my video signal?

I have the
-Eachine EV800D googles
- Taranis QX
-of course green hornet 3 inches


perhaps you could help me with your experience and reviews?

Thanks

Have you tried upgrading the antenna on the goggles? I can get about 1500m with my e800d with a 200mw vTX. Alternatively you could replace the vTX antenna itself or switch out the vTX entirely to something like the TBS 800mw

wow, 1500m

I usually buy my stuff in banggood, which one do you recommend?

Thanks coyote

Hi Rex, looks like that comes with 300mw Vtx. You should get plenty of range with that.
Are you set at 25mw which would be stock settings out of factory.
Are your goggles and Vtx set on same channel?
Are you using stock antennas as they are not great.

Lumeniar do an AXII combo kit which is what i wanted to get but couldn't get hold of them at the time. I ended up going menace bandicoot in the end which I'm pleased with.

Do you mean that it is possible to see video when goggles and vtx are not on the same channel?

Hello All

I was flying my larva x and the VTX antenna fell out.... Could someone tell me which antenna should I replace it with?

Thanks a lot

Yes it is which is why we always say not to auto scan channels. It can still work ok if it is not exact but it will not be reliable.

I had to Google it to see what it had. It looks like it has a U.FL connector for the antenna, so you should be able to use something like this.

Lumenier AXII 2 U.FL 5.8GHz Antenna (RHCP)

The AXII 2 takes the best parts of the original AXII antenna and makes them even better. Improved range, bandwidth, and durability make the AXII 2 a true successor to the throne.

Hello, OKW I am sorry I was not more specific.

This post is about mid and long-range. I am looking for an improvement to the antenna.

The one you suggest seems to be the right one.

Thanks a lot for your help.
