Does anyone know what Tx antenna this could be used with?
-----
I wonder if there could be an antenna comparison episode, like the FPV system episode, but for helical, cloverleaf, and patch antenna. Gonna suggest that now.
I have never tried one. I've heard that if you use the helical on the ground and a cloverleaf in the air you get better performance as far as maintaining signal while banking hard, nosedives, etc. Range is reported as 'moderate'. I have no idea what distance moderate will cover! Video Aerial Systems

Depends how close I am. If I'm within 400-500yards I have no problems. It will get a little fuzzy if I'm way out and do a hard turn or dive. I try to remember to turn right when I'm far away because that's the wing the tx is on. I have a couple videos posted in the fpv section here Sometimes when the esc and motor get between the tx and rx I start to get static. I'm also going to upgrade the saw filter in the rx.
Here's part of a vid where I went a mile with the same setup but on an Easystar.
At 3:35 in that video is where I hit the right edge of the patch beamwidth. @ 3:39 you can see me standing outside the screened patio of the house. that glint at me feet is the patch, pointed out towards where I was flying. It wasnt affected by those bushes or the trees in the parking lot. I had it angled up about 35 degrees.
