This SMA 45 Degree Connector is useful for pointing antennas on both your quad and goggles upwards.
Omnidirectional antennas actually have a dead zone in the vertical axis, so it is best to keep them vertically oriented during flight and on your goggles. Using a 45 degree connector is perfect, since most quads fly forwards at an angle of 30-45 degrees.
Directional antennas on goggles work best when they are pointed straight forwards and by using a 45 degree connector, you can adjust the upwards angle of your directional antenna by rotating the connector. This way, you can add between 0 and 45 degrees of up tilt on your goggle antenna.
Increase the Lifespan of your Goggles and Vtx Connector
SMA and RPSMA connectors have a limited lifespan and using an additional connector between your antenna and goggles or Vtx increase their lifespan.
RP-SMA (Male) to SMA (Female)
Use this connector to adapt your male (non-DJI) antennas to your DJI Goggles
RP-SMA to RP-SMA
Use this connector to extend the life of your DJI Goggles.
when i received mine the box and everything was not damaged but when i opened it the canopy was cracked and the VTX did not work when i tried my first battery. I'm alright with the vtx being DOA as all i really wanted was the motors and beeeye camara, But when i reached out to customer service i was blamed for crashing it (even tho i never flew it). beware the QC is total garbage. save your money and buy a Mobula6 from a reputable company like GetFPV for RDQ's. I wasn't going to write a review but after the email i received i don't want anyone else getting scammed.
Darren excelled in selecting the development kit and essential accessories that would have to purchase separately, ensuring I made an informed purchase. His attention to detail and dedication prevented any post-purchase disappointment. I am thoroughly pleased and grateful for his exceptional service.
An absolute pleasure to fly. Handles incredibly well and responds to any input just as I expected.
The only criticism is not of the performance of the drone. Unfortunately, it arrived with damage to the canopy. But I was still able to fly it and make initial observations.
Update process is cumbersome, better if done with the VTX out of the quad. Also the update port is much flimsier than the earlier 2 antenna versions, IMO.
