Well Santa is around the corner and the wife is trying to find me something for Xmas :D I would like to get new goggles but not the Fat shark. Their Out of our price range :oops: The ones that I have now works fine for me http://graysonhobby.com/eachine-vrd2-v2 ... rsity.html but the DVR in it doesn't. I'm looking for a built in DVR that works well and I wear glasses so something that I use with them :? . I don't want to order oversea because Xmas will be over by the time they get here :lol: Anyway I would appreciate some input so I can pass it on to Mrs. clause ;)

I must admit I have thought about it too.
I wonder how they perform with less than perfect orientation, like when an airplane is doing a long banked turn.

Pagoda antenna are pretty good but a bit fragile, need to be wrapped in heatshrink to help with the abuse,

My favourite antenna atm is the lumenier Axii, thay do standard length a stubby and one that comes with a u.fl connector that attaches direct to my irc tramp vtx or the tbs vtx

I wonder if dunking them in that liquid insulation stuff would help.
