Description

The RadioMaster Bandit T Antenna is engineered for FPV pilots and drone operators utilizing 868MHz or 915MHz long-range radio protocols. Its linear polarization and omnidirectional radiation pattern ensure consistent link quality across a wide operational area, making it suitable for both racing and mid-range exploration builds. The antenna’s electrical design prioritizes low-loss signal transmission to maintain strong telemetry and control feeds.

Constructed with a durable RG402 coaxial cable and a robust housing, the Bandit T Antenna is built to withstand the physical demands of field use. The integrated 360-degree swivel RP-SMA connector provides critical flexibility, allowing pilots to orient the antenna for optimal signal polarization and to minimize shadowing effects, directly enhancing RF performance and flight safety.

Key Features

  • High-efficiency omnidirectional T-antenna design for 868/915MHz ISM bands.
  • Heavy-duty RG402 coaxial cable ensures minimal signal loss and superior durability.
  • Custom 360° swivel RP-SMA connector enables optimal antenna positioning and polarization alignment.
  • 80mm coax tail length is engineered to physically separate the antenna from RF noise sources on the transmitter.
  • Rugged, compact housing protects the internal radiating element from impact and environmental stress.
  • 50-ohm impedance standard for seamless integration with common RC transmitter and module outputs.

Applications

  • Upgrading the external antenna on RadioMaster, Jumper, or FrSky transmitters for 915MHz ExpressLRS modules.
  • Replacement or secondary antenna for TBS Crossfire Micro TX V2 or other 868MHz long-range systems.
  • Improving telemetry and control link reliability on mid-range FPV freestyle and long-range exploration drones.
  • Providing a flexible, swiveling antenna solution for ground station receivers or portable radio control setups.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this antenna compatible with my 2.4GHz ExpressLRS transmitter?

No, this antenna is specifically tuned for the 860-930MHz frequency band (868MHz and 915MHz). It is not compatible with 2.4GHz systems. It is designed for long-range protocols like 915MHz ExpressLRS and 868MHz TBS Crossfire.

What is the advantage of the 360-degree swivel RP-SMA connector?

The swivel connector allows you to position the antenna for optimal signal polarization and to point it away from your body or other RF-blocking objects. This flexibility helps maximize signal strength and reliability by reducing signal shadowing and maintaining proper antenna orientation during flight.

Can I use this antenna directly on my RadioMaster TX16S transmitter?

Yes, if your TX16S is equipped with an external RP-SMA antenna port for a module that operates on 868/915MHz, such as an ExpressLRS or Crossfire module. You must ensure your internal RF module is set to the correct frequency band (915MHz or 868MHz) that matches the antenna's tuning for optimal performance.

What does the 80mm coax cable length do?

The 80mm coaxial cable tail is designed to physically separate the active radiating element (the T-section) from the transmitter's internal electronics and the pilot's hand. This separation reduces potential interference from the transmitter's own circuitry, leading to a cleaner transmitted signal and improved overall RF link quality.
