My Analog VTX Breaks Up At Short Range! Help! - FPV Questions

[modquad]

Check antenna system impedance with a VOM. Then test at low, mid and high frequencies and see which yields the best performance as an antenna system will work best at certain frequencies. If everyone did this, they would be amazed at just how good an analog system can be.

Second thing would be to change the pigtail. If it doesn't help, change the antenna.

I'm having breakup at 1 meter, nevermind 100. Can't figure it out. Goes from excellent quality to completely blind. Seems correlated to how I move the goggles and the orientation angle relative to the quad. Maybe I need better goggles or antenna. I don't know though, it's just a Mobula7 problem, my other quads are more as expected.

I set betaflight to low power until armed, but it never went to 800mw. It just stayed at 25mw. Almost lost my 7 inch. Now I just leave it at full power. Something with the older version of BF on the FC, I think.

That VTX does seem very under powered as well. I think someone tested it and it was 4 or 5 hundred on the real. I swear my low profile 350mW does better sometimes.

Hi Joshua great video, it has helped quite a bit however, I have an issue that I’m hoping you can help me with.

My fpv feed breaks up at about 5 meters on my hglrc Zeus nano 350 mw vtx, is this normal?

I’ve tried changing the output power and I can’t figure out why everyone else with this vtx is getting a much better fpv feed.

Help would be much appreciated. 👍

My analog video works great when I’m right next to the drone but as soon as I take a step back, it turns statics and I can’t see anything. Any help? I built this drone w your tutorial

That VTX sucks... You only get 480mw, not 800mw.
I changed it for a Speedybee tx800 and the change is like from night to day.

I don't get more than 1/4 mile range with this vtx and good matching antennae. I noticed that the product page says you need to use a capacitor or the battery noise will worsen the vtx performance. But iflight didn't put a capacitor on the pre-build. Maybe it's just a bad vtx?

Can anyone tell me how I get my quad to stop using race band 8

[zachoconnell]

This was exactly my issue u are awesome

On 25 on my whoop I can’t fly in the other room without loosing video

I unlocked my tinyhawk 2 vtx to 200mw and I couldn't even fly 30 feet, went back to 25mw and could fly around the outside of my whole house
