What makes the Jeti complicated is the continuous BiDirectional comm, mixed with frequency hopping, mixed with control and data. and 2 transmitters doing it at almost the same time...so it actually has to deconflict it ownself too from TX1 and TX2.. It has to prioritize control data always. and sensor update rates vary.. its quite amazing actually whats going on inside. It just works..

We optimize our setups for the over and above average odds of success.. thats what alot of this is about. But the system just works well with a single receiver in default. I have a bunch of planes like that and never have an issue. they just work..

So to keep it simple, Q is important.. It needs packets to operate, no matter what the signal strength is..
- If you got zapped with a microwave with 9's It might stay 9 but he noise floor drops your Q.. On the other hand, I have seen 3/4 antennas, with 100% Q.. thats something to look at if it continues, its time to adjust your antenna location

Bottom line is its a dynamic environment, so things change quickly, and one situation usually only lasts for seconds or less. Try not to get wrapped up in the numbers too much. I set my transmitter for a warning with A1/2 at 3, and Q at 30% in most models.. If I have one thats problematic, I will drop it to 2 and 20%.. thats really it..

simple explanation
