Why did a second antenna come with my H

[Marc L Johnson]

2 antennas came install to the st16, but in another box it included a "patch" antenna for best performance.
What is this for?

Watching, mine came with the same thing.

It is to replace the mushroom antenna. The newer H's come with the the antenna.

Can you send picture here, of this antenna.

OK, so the mushroom one is older & lower performance.

What specifically does the new one have better?

The square one is directional. Needs to be pointed at the H.

Hi:

Does anyone know the reference of the "patch" antenna Yuneec or similar in Amazon?

I have the old unit, and i want to improve the video link.

I think is cheap.

Thanks.

Can you post a link? I've tried search and it comes up nothing. I've been looking into this type of antenna to replace the mushroom antenna.

Mushroom type (old)
Flat type (new)

I have the flat type. My ST16 has the 3 antenna set-up. 2 - 2.4 GHz and the flat 5.8 GHz. It's causing a poor fit in my MC Case since they have a taller profile than what MC Cases was set up for. I've been looking into getting a 5.8 GHz rubber ducky antenna (same design as the 2.4 GHz) so I can fold it down and store it in my MC Case. I've been removing the 5.8 GHz antenna before storing the ST16 in my case.

Suppose that is a bad idea in the sense of reach and continuity of vid feed.

Dunno what a MC case is, but maybe that is (almost) easy to adjust...?

Thanks very much by the info.
I will try to get it in a spanish dealer.
Regards.

Multi-Copter Cases- based in Germany, but they sell on Amazon. Allows you to store your H with arms folded down and props still attached.
Amazon.com : Professional wheeled carrying case / trolley for the Typhoon H Advanced and Pro with mounted propellers and camera, UPDATE: Extendable handle now included : Camera & Photo

If you have an older ST 16 and are looking for the extra antenna, we are doing upgrades and installing them for people!

We are also doing the same for the drone. Check out this video
