150mm Triple Feed Patch 5.8GHz 14dBi Pagoda Array FPV
Table of Contents
Overview
The 150mm Triple Feed Patch 5.8GHz 14dBi Pagoda Array FPV Antenna is a high-performance circularly polarized antenna designed for long-range FPV, UAV telemetry, and high-stability video links. Unlike traditional FR4-based patches that suffer heavy loss at 5.8 GHz, this antenna uses a coupled-patch array structure that significantly improves radiation efficiency, axial ratio, and overall link reliability. Its wide bandwidth, ultra-low VSWR, and optimized low-sidelobe pattern ensure stable video transmission even during aggressive maneuvers or off-axis flight angles.
Features
1. High Radiation Efficiency
-
Avoids typical FR4 losses by using a coupled-patch array design.
-
Simplified feed network reduces internal loss and improves consistency.
2. Excellent Circular Polarization (Axial Ratio Performance)
-
Outstanding axial ratio not only on-axis but also off-center.
-
Ensures clean CP signal reception and superior multipath resistance.
3. High Gain With Optimized Pattern Control
-
14.4 dBi gain provides strong long-distance performance.
-
Slightly reduced theoretical gain to maintain low sidelobes and clean CP pattern.
4. Ultra-Low Sidelobes
-
Energy is concentrated in the main lobe for higher signal stability.
-
Wider but more usable main beam, ideal for dynamic FPV applications.
5. Wide Operating Bandwidth
-
Covers 5.47 GHz to 6.13 GHz for compatibility with most 5.8 GHz FPV systems.
6. Durable and Lightweight
-
Plastic + metal structure ensures long service life while maintaining low weight.
-
Designed for drones, fixed-wing FPV, and ground stations.

✔ FAQ
Q1: Is this antenna compatible with all 5.8 GHz FPV systems?
Yes. It supports 5.47–6.13 GHz, covering all major FPV VTX/VRX frequency bands.
Q2: What is the real-world range improvement?
With 14.4 dBi gain and high axial ratio, it provides significantly more stable long-distance video, especially in noisy RF environments.
Q3: Can this be used on both TX and RX?
It is mainly recommended for the receiver side due to its directional high-gain design, but can be used on TX when properly aligned.
Q4: Does the low-sidelobe design really help FPV?
Yes. It reduces unwanted multipath reflections and improves signal stability during turns, banking, or off-axis flight.
Q5: Is it weather resistant?
It is built with plastic + metal materials suitable for outdoor use, but heavy rain may affect RF performance.
Q6: Why is the axial ratio important?
A low axial ratio provides better circular polarization, meaning clearer video with less interference, especially through obstacles or during high-angle flight.
