I can see how this might be an issue. But for me I've always used crossfire and that immortal T antenna....I've mounted it on the rear or the front below the frame. Never tried to mounting it another way, maybe that's why it's always been so good. Thanks for the tip though.
I loved using Crossfire for 3.5 years. The only reason I switched to ELRS was the price. The position of antenna on the quad is very important. I had it in the wrong position when I was using crossfire. I had a failsafe when I brought the quad 2 miles away from me. It only failsafe when I started turning it back to me. The antenna on the quad was parallel to the ground and the immortal T antenna on my Jumper T16 was vertical. Someone told me that it encountered null. When I changed the antenna orientation on the quad to vertical, it never failsafe anymore. The latest video I uploaded showed that the new antenna position I showed in this video really worked well. I was able to really go far! My issue now is on the DJI fpv goggles v2. I'm using AXII patch antenna. I'm going to try 25Mbps later. Many are saying that 50Mbps is not good for long range.
@neilfpv I didn't think I was that much of a difference but I think for the transmitters especially right. I've gone 2 miles back no problem. I'll take a look at those a little bit more.
