and its ok, not clean by any chance
-
but my antennaes are cheap
-
KeyserSoze3D
are your antennas both polarized the same
-
RHCP vs RHCP
-
and are they usign the right connector
-
RP-SMA vs SMA
-
shaun413
well
-
one is a 3 lobe
-
one is a 4
-
and idk they are both the asame connector now?
-
KeyserSoze3D,
-
-
wot
-
shaun413
its this antennaes
-
KeyserSoze3D
right
-
but look at how they connect
-
shaun413
yes?
-
sma
-
KeyserSoze3D
RP sma has a hole
-
sma has a pin
-
shaun413
i just screwed em in

KeyserSoze3D
a friend of mine recently found out he was using rpsma
-
on an sma
-
shaun413
how would it fit?
-
vlcn
woohoo, maidened my DLG without incident
-
shaun413
how hard is it to make my own decent antennas?
-
KeyserSoze3D
not worth the time
-
antennas are so cheap
-
shaun413
why
-
ibcrazy isnt cheap
-
vlcn
just buy some decent antennas and be done with it
-
shaun413
it will cost me 100 bucks
-
to get some decent antneeas
-
KeyserSoze3D
antennas
-
shaun413
2 skew planars and a plate anttenas
-
KeyserSoze3D
are't rocket science
-
shaun413
i know
-
KeyserSoze3D
well
-
SMA
-
the reciever has a hole
-
using and RPSMA antenna
-
the antenna has a hole
-
so there is no pin to fin in the hole
-
they fit like that all day
-
shaun413
i have an adapter
-
for rp to sma
-
KeyserSoze3D
is this a quad
-
shaun413
idk where to use it
-
yes a quad
-
KeyserSoze3D
have you tried your range without the motors running
-
shaun413
no
-
how would i get any signal if the plug was inw rong?
-
could be the sma on my screen
-
KeyserSoze3D
oh sure
-
you get signal
-
if you hd the wrong plug
-
just not very good singnal
-
what screen
-
are you using
-
shaun413

TS5823
-
shaun413
yes
-
KeyserSoze3D
isn't that RP SMA
-
shaun413
yes
-
KeyserSoze3D
ok
-
and your sky zone
-
shaun413
sma
-
KeyserSoze3D
so your antennas
-
shaun413
yes?
-
KeyserSoze3D
are they sma or or RP
-
shaun413
idk
-
sma
-
KeyserSoze3D

-
shaun413

-
KeyserSoze3D
vlcn very nice glider,
-
shaun413
hmm
-
KeyserSoze3D
vlc I think i will end up getting that libelle
-
:)
-
shaun413
so the otherone needs an adapter?
-
KeyserSoze3D
wait
-
vlcn
KeyserSoze3D: ick! :P
-
KeyserSoze3D
do they have pins or holes
-
the antennas
-
vlcn
KeyserSoze3D, it is. The funny thing is that right now I throw the whipit higher than this one.
-
I'm not scared of breaking the whipit
-
lol
-
shaun413
ok ill add the connector
-
vlcn
honestly, once the whipit wing is reinforced it does pretty damn well
-
shaun413
i dont get how i was getting any signal KeyserSoze3D ?
-
vlcn
it's way too flexible/fragile in stock form
-
KeyserSoze3D
yeah you get short range signal
-
so your antennas
-
are RPSMA
-
shaun413
they are?
-
KeyserSoze3D
well I'ma sking you
-
shaun413
it says SMA on the site
-
KeyserSoze3D
do your antennas have pins or holes
-
loook in the connector
-
shaun413
Ok
-
KeyserSoze3D
RPSMA has holes
-
SMA has PINS
-
on the antenna
-
shaun413
ook let me look
-
KeyserSoze3D
vlc the whipet looks cool but I want something to be my in the car toss up plane
-
I considered an alula
-
but they are kind of fugly
-
vlcn
aww I think the Alua looks cool
-
KeyserSoze3D, really though I stand by what I said about the Libelle
-
it's not worth ~$200
-
shaun413
brb checking
-
vlcn
$120, sure
-
KeyserSoze3D
vlc I'd like a hand launched
-
gentle lady
-
:)
-
I still have my gentle lady I built when I was 14
-
vlcn
KeyserSoze3D: I paid $300 for this DLG fully built with *everything* (yes even a receiver and battery)
-
KeyserSoze3D
vlcn i want something floaty
-
wow thats a good deal
-
vlcn
I also just narrowly missed picking up a Super Topsky 2.0 for ~$225
-
someone beat me to it
-
there's just no way that something constructed like the libelle can compete with a proper DLG
-
I have heard it's awesome for slope soaring though
-
KeyserSoze3D
oh sure
-
but i'm not looking to compete
-
with them
