Is there an ideal ST16 antenna angle?

[Chris McMillan]

I've seen quite a few vids on the H, and each time the position of the stock antennas seems a different angle..... Anyone out there with some feed back (Yuneec!)?
Most seem to keep the 2 antennas vertical from the ground...

The mushroom antenna should face the aircraft. The stick antenna should be straight up.

...So the top of the mushroom antenna pointed at the craft?

Thanks!

So far, the best solution.

Pointing this angle?????

Can't argue with Bowhunt.
Skew Planar and whip antennae radiate strongest from the side not top.
1530.2 meters says it all.

looks the same way in the video from the Tyhpoon web site too....

You can't argue with success. That is great range.

WOW... I also would have thought the whip antenna should be straight up and the mushroom one straight out pointing the flat end towards the craft!!!

Who knew!!! Well aside from the guys that did.. ii
