Jim Drew: If you are monitoring this conversation, please tell us why removing the antenna was instructed for the Multiplex setup and not the others.
Paul i think it was also required on my JR module
Paul I just test the range on the flying field and without antenna after 20 ft I lost control. That does not make me happy. Nevertheless I did my maiden flight with the GT2000v2 motor glider successfully.
this range testing is quite a challenge. when i came home i used my XPS-F1 module in the optic 6 transmitter and repeated the range test with this transmitter and it basically double the range. ok being a good boy i went back tot my multiplex XPS transmitter and repeated the same range test - and voila they behaved the same. so what does that mean? what happened on the field measurement? when i flew i forgot to switch to the LQI RSSI, i will do that next time but when the plane was on the ground and i was about 50m away the LQI dropped to 70ish.
