I can find out. I ended up with a 10w version of the amp he was using. But basically said any good 9dbi out door omnidirectional. I need to separate mine but just haven't felt the need based on the results I have now. I am still blown away every time I fly.

Care to share amp version?

Add to the already large amount of stuff I carry already. I bring my drone with me at night.. "just in case".

I tried the same series Sunhans but it didn't work well. Especially on the Rx side. Too noisy and only little gain. On the TX side it only worked close to the RC. Long cable runs weekend the TX so the amp never goes into full amplification. Curious to hear your results. Areyou flying P4 these days or..other?
I'm in Eu. This might also contribute a little.
I plan to have the mobile system with retractable mast, 24dbi directional antennas and antenna tracker system ready by end of April. Mainly for a matrice 600 type. Hope you got more luck with the Sunhans silver series than Me!

For this price you can already go for L-com amps with higher Rx and less noise.
This is what counts.

Sounds like a good project. I believe you are correct about the amp. I've never had good luck with the other higher power suhan I had. Anyway that's part of the fun trying things out. Probably will be boxing it back up after a few hrs.

Build it..... They will come...

Get at me if you still want to trouble shoot those amps...

My dad use to have a CB antenna tower/mast.. 50'. It was really popular here when I was growing up. All his fishing buddies all had them just like us and drones. That's the main reason I've been waiting... Trying to talk one of them into selling me one of those... Get me out of the hole I'm in.
