Default Jeti satellite distance

About to install my first Jeti radio. CB200 w/2 R3 satellites. How far apart can I place them. On My Spectrum and JR DMSS I tried place a sat in the nose and tail. Can Jeti do that?

They aren't really satellite receivers.
They are independent (trans)receivers each can be bound to the transmitter.

The placement of the active (yellow) portion of the antenna is what matters.
Try and maintain 90 degrees between each and keep them away from large/dense objects that can "shadow" RF signals (especially carbon fiber)...true for all 2.4 radios, not just jeti.

If you can seperate the 2 receivers, that's fine too. But if they are placed next to each other and the antennae routed away from each and properly oriented, that's ok as well.

It has been noted in the Forums that the extension between the CB200 and the R3 can be up to 36".

Jeti told me a maximum of one metre cable.

Awesome, enjoy��

I just got mine a week ago and I'm really liking it so far. It's a bit of a learning curve but I'm not finding it too difficult, certainly isn't rocket science. Made me realize how plug n play Spektrum is comparatively in some respects ��...Jeti I do think is the way of the future in my opinion, quality is superb
