XPS,
I used an Immersion RC RF meter to measure the power output from two Futaba Tx modules and two JR modules. Using the same SMA adapters and directly connecting the same meter:
Futaba Tx module #1, 18.5 dBm
Futaba Tx module #2, 20.3 dBm
JR Tx module #1, 18.6 dBm
JR Tx module #2, 18.6 dBm
The ImmersionRC meter has two measurement modes: Average and Peak. These values were taken using Peak mode. In Average mode the meter doesn't even see the signal, so I cannot be sure about the absolute peak output values. But the relative difference was consistent.
Would there be any issue with reliability using the Futaba module running at a higher relative output compared to the other modules?
Thank you,
Paul
