Hello, In my country I only have these 3 patch antennas available.

1) Foxeer Oreo 9.5dBi High Gain Patch Antenna - SMA connector RHCP

2) TBS 5G8 RHCP PATCH ANTENNA

3) MenaceRC Pico RHCP 5.8GHZ patch antenna SMA

Which one is the best all-round antenna? This is my first fpv setup so I have no experience with this. I am not planning to fly further than 400m.

The results will vary based on the location you fly. There is no "perfect" antenna for every scenario. I personally run a diversity ground station with a combination of a omnidirectional and a directional antennas made by VAS.

I agree LB, no perfect antenna. Make sure the connection will work on your vTx & vRx. The higher the dB antennas the narrower beam width.

Flying only 400m, I’m not sure you need a patch. I’ve gone 1,500m on a clover leaf antenna, with a 200 mW vTx. If you want a patch, get a lower dB one.
