Default RE: Dropouts with 200mw 2.4Ghz...

Can you help me get started? I bought a cheap @89.00 "spycam" video cam described in Quantum Hobbies as a good lightweight aerial cam (Perhaps cheap is my problem?). I got lots of dropouts with a few 5 second clear signals that made me itching to try harder. Can you suggest antenna or camera systems that work well? I have ZTV ELECTRONS Cam/TX, 50mw (cam and TX. in same little square about 1 inch on a side. (Tiny for cam and TX.) TX. has a 9volt pigtail. antenna is a 6" whip (thin wire) exiting the same 1" square. Pointing straight up. RX. is a 12volt, with a 6" "coiled whip? (thick) Pointing straight up. RX. has a fine tuning knob. System is 1.2 GHZ. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
