This time I won't be so hot headed. But me and @Lovestricken have been discussing my fpv setups and how my range is so poor. I have fpv in my kraton and noto. Both are running the same setup and both are wired the same way. I have an AKK 25mw to 1000mw long range version vtx and a AKK true diversity receiver. I have true x air patch antenna and true clover antennas. Both my rigs have the vtx wired to a buck convertor to supply 14.5 volts at a max of 3 amps. The convertor powers the vtx fan and the vtx. I have 2 other convertors running my delta fans for the motor and esc. Both rigs have caddex ntsc cams and have twisted wires. Now my issue is even at 1000mw (I know it should not be that high) I have terrible range, like under 300 feet. Both my goggle antennas are pointing down(best signal that way) and my cars antenna is away from the receiver antenna and is straigh up and down. Is there anything I can do to help my range. I have already gutted my cheap box goggle to install the AKK recevier module and my signal 2 feet away is still only at 95 percent according to the module. I want to make this understood that I know I should not need to run at 1000mw and I don't want to I just have it cranked to try and increase my range. Oh and both car and goggles have rhcp antennas. Below is a crayon drawing of my wiring. @SrC @fpvmiller
