I get great distance and penetration with the DBS Itelite Antenna on the inspire. I am sure the fpvlr kits are comparable. May try a fpvlr on the matrice!
Hi,
Same for me, I have DBSmods on both master & slave, night and day difference from stock!!
I can't say anything about FPVLR, as I haven't tried them at all, but I can say that I am very pleased from the performance of the DBS mods.
I don't fly for distance, I'm most interested in not having my video link drop out. I fly almost strictly LOS, almost always with a spotter as well so I can focus on camera work.
Most of my flying is single operator, but for dual, the mods have made all the difference.
I was experiencing very weak video if I turned the aircraft while filming, almost every flight.
more than 90% of my flights are over open water, almost zero obstacles, but I couldn't rely on my video link.
Sent both tx's to DBS on a monday, had them back on friday, I paid expedited shipping both ways, and the results changed the whole game for me. This is how I've always expected the i1 to perform.
I've tested .5 - .75 miles, no obstructions, can do full 360 with aircraft and not notice a difference. Also, the latency i was experiencing is gone, I can't detect lag at all anymore.
I can also say, dealing with DBS has been excellent. We had a little issue with a tx, and he took care of it without question and as fast as possible, 2 days.
I flew this am, over the ocean in PR, was a 2nd inspire out at the surf break and he couldn't believe the stability of my video link. He has been having the same issues I was experiencing before the upgrade. I've had my upgrade since august, and almost forgot about what it was like before.
If you're on the fence about upgrading, to either system, all I can say is don't wait any longer than you have to.
