Product overview

The iFlight Albatross V2.1 is a 5.8GHz FPV antenna available in RHCP SMA and LHCP RP-SMA configurations, with a frequency range of 5.3GHz-6GHz. Its hexagonal form enhances durability, while a right-angle design supports convenient fixation. The construction combines LDS technology with ultrasonic welding for a lightweight, secure antenna attachment. An RG141 cable forms part of the assembly, and the antenna weighs 10.5±0.5g. Version 2.1 delivers more stable performance than V2.

The RHCP SMA configuration has an average gain of 2.9dBi, an average VSWR of 1.48 and average radiation efficiency of 66.51%. The LHCP RP-SMA configuration provides an average gain of 2.92dBi, an average VSWR of 1.5 and average radiation efficiency of 66.82%. Both configurations have cross polarization suppression of -25dB and an axial ratio of ≤3. For DJI Digital FPV, use RP-SMA LHCP with matching polarization on both sides. The FPV frame is not included.
