5.8GHz 2.8dBi RHCP Lollipop Antenna (Long)

This 5.8GHz omnidirectional lollipop antenna is designed to provide a robust video link for FPV drones and goggles. The extended stalk of this long version raises the active element higher above carbon fibre frames and LiPo batteries, significantly reducing signal blockage and multi-pathing during flight. Featuring Right-Hand Circular Polarisation (RHCP) and an SMA or RP-SMA connector, it is a practical choice for analog freestyle, racing, and mid-range quadcopter builds.

Key features

• Extended stalk clears the quadcopter body to maximise line-of-sight signal transmission and reduce dead zones.

• 2.8dBi gain delivers consistent, omnidirectional video coverage.

• Tough, impact-resistant radome housing protects the internal elements during crashes and hard landings.

• Right-Hand Circular Polarisation (RHCP) inherently filters out reflected multi-path signals.

• Knurled SMA or RP-SMA base ensures secure, tool-free tightening to your video transmitter or receiver.

Always pair this antenna with an RHCP receiver antenna on your goggles or ground station. Mixing RHCP on the transmitter with LHCP on the receiver will cause severe cross-polarisation interference and dramatically reduce your flyable range.
