It's easy to find out.
Since both are active (R3 and R12), and simultaneously transmitting data to the transmitter, you can visualize and compare the antennas behavior or gain on the screen.
They can also be compared side by side using the antennas telemetry log, after flying.
So far, I haven't seen any difference. (I have a R12 / R3 set up in a couple of jets where I don't need more than 12 channels).
I know that there are guys that have lab tested these receivers extensively; would be interesting to know their findings.
R12 antennas are sturdier, but I think it's just a construction difference.
