Why pay HK list price + shipping when you can get the same without shipping from BG/GB? The following items are branded and falls in your budget. I get all my stuff from there. Fix that * with 'a'.

Just goto BG & search "5.8 receiver", sorted by ascending price. You'll see listings from 16$+ with tracking.

I don't see a reason why they shouldn't work together. But one issue is the Rx on back order.

@purush Pretty much every thing in reasonable sizes can be imported just fine, one only got to figure out the right route to take.

Voice of deaf

Yeah.its stock out.
I mean the bands match na ?

The h/w specs match fine, that's all that matters since most of these come from same blueprint or factory. If they follow Boscam pattern like most other clones, there won't be an issue.

Purush

Sandyx, what exactly you mean by this "one only got to figure out the right route to take."

Is this for a racer? Because it looks like the antenna is soldered to the VTX and if you crash a lot it might break off and be unrepairable.

Voice of deaf

Its for a pusher plane.

What range should i expect with the cl antenna on rx side also ?

CP antennas are not really about range, it's about higher quality of the available signal due to multipath rejection. Sometimes the range can drop a bit compared to a directional antenna or even a LP antenna. But the signal quality would be solid throughout this range with a well made CP antenna. You need to have CP antennas on both Tx & Rx, also the direction of polarisation should match too. LHCP at one end wont work with RHCP at the other.

Okay thanks sandy sir.
What range could i expect with a matching rx cl antenna ?

Effective range will depend on the transmitter power, antenna choices & orientation & environment conditions. I'm a groundpounder so i can't comment on range in the air. You should get around 1km solid with standard 600mw/quality CP ant setup. Many combos exist for extended ranges.
