This is another pic that’s was taken whilst doing same test note about 40min later note Rx voltage drop only on small Fe batt etc
Hi Oli

When I took that first pic the Tx was very close to Rx antennas and as I said one was facing face down on rug the other facing up...soon as I moved Tx away a bit all figures were normal.
Look the only reason I have tried this as I have told Richard is pure curiosity and as I had frameworks/assemblies installed for patch antennas in certain models I decided to use them. The RSSI figures are good and I agree with Dave there is no need for them but as with the Wea the system performance was good without the patch. The range test as I said with the patch was very good and this is purely an exercise.
Flying the Extra with patch has been non eventful...

One thing I will say and Dave obviously knows this with all the flying he has done, the Core is everything I thought it would be in terms of holding it for flying etc totally balanced and good to hold with good stick units and reach of all trims/switches really like it...
This was the feeling I had of the Tx when I first held it when first shown at JetPower and certainly not disappointed

When I put the 2 PBR26 in my T1 with Mercury SRS I shall just be using the wire dipole :-)

See you at JetPower?
