How and when to use your Moxon Antenna or T Antenna
MOXON Antenna The Moxon directional antenna is intended for long range and has a more narrow field of operation. It is important to keep the Moxon antenna pointed in the general direction of your aircraft. Antenna polarization: vertical/horizontal polarization
T Antenna The T Antenna is an omnidirectional antenna. It is intended for short to medium range and is suitable for most conditions. Antenna polarization: vertical/horizontal polarization
How to use Futaba CRSF Cable
1. Please make sure your Futaba radio firmware can support CRSF function.Click here to learn more. 2. Follow Futaba manual to select servo test port to CRSF. 3. Connect Bandit via CRSF Cable. 4. Connect a XT30 2s-4s lipo battery to Bandit.
Nice to be able to use other batteries in field, but cautious because of the failure, I’ve decided to use only on freestyle type flying where recovery is possible, but I don’t use it over water etc because it can’t be trusted now
