I know it's not as expensive as other mods. But was curious bc of the price pt and the portability of this one. Anyone?

The higher gain the new aerial is, the narrower the radio beam is as that's how you obtain signal gain from an aerial, instead of 360 deg transmission you make it, maybe 10 deg so you need to remember to move the control box more accurately so the aerial is pointing at the drone ( Sorry if you knew that already )
I haven't tried the aerial as, being old, your eyesight goes a bit and after a mile or so I cannot keep 'visual contact' with the drone using the standard aerials.

Your link doesn't work.

If you want to post a link from ebay just look in the upper right and see the icon for email. Click that and hit "other email" at the bottom, it should open your email, you can take the link from there and add it here.

Can't see since link is broken, but a real 17dBi antenna for 2.4GHz would be very large and as pointed out require extreme aiming accuracy within a few degrees to actually benefit anything from it.

Its flat panels antennas and it's clearly stated 5.8 Ghz. Worth a try for that price. Two Alfa 5.8Ghz/2.4Ghz Flat panels antennas already cost $40.

also, i been looking at aliexpress at their prices and was talking to the seller(man their english is sooo bad lol) but was trying to get better deals on an alientech booster, but there was such a difference in price, from 150-350 but it looked kinda similar... we'll see what the seller replies

also some stuff looks pretty sweet, like landing legs, which i wonder if it would float and prevent some accidents, like falling in water?
