The amp won't function if it doesn't receive a 0-3 dBm signal from the RC on the ground. If you could find a tunable input trigger amp, you might make this work. But anything tunable will be very expensive.but maybe using an amp would make it worst per se?
Yes. Point one panel in desired flight direction, point the other panel to the ground where your RC will be. Connect the 2 panels with as short of coax you can find (and best quality you can afford). On your RC, use and amp and panel antenna and point it to the top of the pole. This will work, the only unknown is how much dB loss you will incur going through the passive antenna solution.sorry mis read what you posted in other post ...no amp what about direct connect to Omni ant to panel....panel aimed at pilot on ground? coax short as possible?
the dish being a bigger area would that boost dbms?
You could use an omni, but that will add even more dB loss to your solution.ya I figure that would be the case on that what about onmi antenna and panel? panel would face RC
The less parts, the less loss! You might as well take apart both antennas and make them one direct soldered.coax cables that come on the panel are to long for this! I will take it apart solder on a contector so I can screw on an Omni antenna?

I did some google searches for folks that have made Wi-Fi passive solutions and they are reporting 25+ dB loss. This sounds plausible and I would suspect you will see similar results. In my estimation, this would reduce your Mavic range by two thirds, but if one third range is all you need, this might be a feasible solution.
