10dB Patch Antenna




Since I cannot buy any 1.2G patch antenna, I buid this based on rc-cam patch antenna project. With the size adjusted to the transmitter frequency. The 5mm spacer between the reflector is critical. I use balsa and epoxy to secure the 2 pieces. I also use F-connector instead of sma connector.

Ground test proved the range is almost twice the stock antenna.
