That tracking system you recommend doesn't work with the mavic, different receiver or something they just got back to me.

15 dbi ant. amp. That's what I'm waiting to see.

I hope it works better with amps then it did with the antenna by itself

From what I'm seeing trees and your hills are going to hurt you without more altitude.

yup I wont be able to drop down as much or if at all

No I haven't yet, but I noticed it helps even with ant. is to keep it pointed best you can at bird like a panel.

I'm watching you before I get some, if it helps you I'll get a different pair of 20dbi and put on the roof.

that's pretty good!!! it will be a good test for me with all the trees and hills I have around here!!! no it was to cold and windy today

 

[Rnl]

I'm guessing your ant. will do better than anything. You won't have the altitude for the panels, hope I'm wrong.

 

[droneuser]

my ant? you means amps? or my 15 dbi ant?

 

[droneuser]

also it sounds like titan amps are 3 watts just a fyi

 

[Rnl]

Your 15 dbi antenna amped.

 

[droneuser]

I hope it does good!!! I will do a test with amps with 6dbi, 9dbi, 15dbi and panels when they come in I will post data

I know that 15 dbi antenna wasn't much better then srtock without amps

 

[Rnl]

Cool
