I was looking at this the other day on mine and I think if you take the bracket off then use Velcro to stick it to the top of the repeater. It's to good of a antenna not to try something else. Just my opinion of course.

Well that's great to see now ! Have the P2V and the Stage 3 FPVLR's and got the itelite to try but could never find anything that got me any distance for the bird sides so I sold it and just went back to the FPVLR ones .Now ya make some . Now ya gonna make some 5.8's for it also ?
Yeah I am sure that would work it I already got rid of it though I guess I will have to stick with my FPVLR setup good thing I didn't order the dipoles then I would have been out 300 bucks.
$300? The antenna is only $98, right?
Not knocking the FPVLR stuff, but I don't have as good results with it as I do the DBS one.

I got 8500' with those and only 3000' with the DBS one so I guess it just depends on how you have it set up .
No I ordered dipoles with it I have a birdside mod already I have to switch my antennas to use the dbs antenna

I tried all kinds on my birdsides and even asked several times what to use and never could get any answers that helped me . Not saying they won't you but I just got tired of trying .
I liked the itelite panel as I could fly lower and still have FPV but just couldn't get no distance . If I had left the stock 5.8 antennas on mine I might have done better but they been long gone .
Hi I want to buy the 19dbi ITelite patch antenna. Does anyone have any knowledge regarding the connector, whether its SMA or RP-SMA? thanks.

If you talking about the antenna this thread is about start at the beginning and skip through some pages and you will see it . I can't recall just what ya call it .
Would you explain how you have amplified the IteLite antenna?
I have two models of the P2V+. One is the version-3 model and the other is not. I purchased an IteLite antenna for each and have been testing this set up for over a month. I am not trying to break any distance records but I can never achieve anything close to the 8000 feet that I saw in the Youtube video.
When testing for distance I usually choose a remote location where I have a clear line of sight over one mile. I always make certain that all batteries were fully charged. As for the AA batteries – I never fly with used ones. The older model PV2+ seems to perform the best. At just over 3000 feet distance the return-to-home kicks in. The same thing happens with the newer v3 controller but it usually makes it to about 2600 feet which is about the 800 meters claimed for a stock set up.
Of course I can live with this but I am a little disappointed with the antennas. If someone can achieve a distance of 8000 feet with these antennas I can reasonably expect to achieve half of that. If I cannot – this is puzzling. I am mainly looking for suggestions on how to improve the performance. Perhaps the booster app will help, or some bird-side mod?

OK ..you just have the 2.4's . I already have mine like this with the hangers from Tony ,
They are the opposite on the other side.
I will have to see what the 5.8 one's look like he has come out with to see how that will do .
The issue ..not really an issue ...is transporting mine as those antennas I have do bend and that changes all . When I got the itelite panel what I really liked was how it transported without any problems . I then tried the fat shark types of dipoles and liked the way I could put them down but just couldn't get no distance .
So like a dummy I got rid of it and just went back to the FPVLR set up . Now gonna have to get another one to try this out !!
Me need a ..gofunddirk... thing
Thanks for getting me those pictures buddy !!!
