So this works really well (aside from rather severe Mimic range limitations in current Beta). Wish range wasn't preventing aerial use but have high hopes for a solution...
It's genius! But I wouldn't put a 3W range booster near anyones's brain (which I am trying for Controller / Mimic to overcome the range problem)
Thanks mate but yes LOL I'm rather nervous about a high powered antenna array surrounding my brain :-/ That said, if we can in fact hack the Mimics range, it may be possible to extend the antenna whip to a safe distance. Fingers crossed...love Mimic...love this set up...hate the range problems.
Stick the antenna on a pole that comes up out of a back pack, perhaps? This has the advantage of not irradiating your brain and also you will look so dorky that people will really hesitate before they distract you with questions. Andy
Adam, no to the blinking. Better to have an air powered spit/puffer tube switch. Kind of a bag pipe look to the whole rig with the 20 ft fishing pole lighting attracting antenna on a backpack. The possibilities are endless, the picture priceless...
Great minds think alike...I'm still not sure a backpack antenna array won't be necessary but have hopes Mimic / MoVI / Spectrum 8 range issues can be solved somehow. Thank you,
Just for the record, the full aphorism as I recall it, is: "Great minds think alike, and fools never differ." <evil grin> Andy.
