Product Description

TrueRC Stubby Core 5.8GHz LHCP SMA Gray Antenna

Achieve superior signal separation and durability with the TrueRC Stubby Core 5.8GHz Antenna, configured with LHCP polarization and a standard SMA Male connector. This antenna utilizes TrueRC's cutting-edge Laser Direct Structuring (LDS) technology, where the active elements are 3D-etched directly onto the internal core. This advanced manufacturing process eliminates the variability of hand-assembled wire antennas, delivering a highly consistent and reliable video link for professional and hobbyist applications.

Why LHCP with SMA? While Right Hand Circular Polarization (RHCP) is the standard for most analog systems, switching to Left Hand Circular Polarization (LHCP) allows pilots to fly simultaneously with RHCP users with significantly reduced interference. This makes the Stubby Core LHCP SMA an excellent choice for drone racing heats, crowded flight lines, or complex sUAS operations where frequency management is critical. It is also the perfect match for SMA-equipped video receivers and goggles when paired with an LHCP transmitting antenna.

Indestructible Design The Stubby Core is engineered for the harshest environments. Housed in a thick, ultra-sonically welded polycarbonate shell, it resists impacts that would destroy traditional antennas. Its compact "stubby" profile prevents snagging on branches or airframe components, making it ideal for low-profile mounting on goggles or crash-prone freestyle drones. The neutral gray color maintains a professional, low-visibility aesthetic suitable for tactical and industrial use.

Precision Performance Delivering a 1.9dBic gain with exceptional cross-polar rejection, this antenna provides a smooth, omni-directional radiation pattern with no blind spots. It covers a wide frequency range (5.5GHz to 6.2GHz), ensuring compatibility with all major FPV channels. For the ultimate receiving setup, pair this omni antenna with directional options from ReadyMadeRC, such as the TrueRC X-AIR 5.8 MK II (LHCP SMA), to ensure a rock-solid link at range.
