Meet the most durable antenna in the TrueRC lineup: the Matchstick 5.8GHz. This antenna was engineered for FPV drone pilots who are tired of replacing broken gear after every crash. It combines the proven, high-performance core of the Singularity antenna with an ultra-rugged construction, featuring a hardened case and a Kevlar-reinforced cable. It’s the ultimate choice for pilots who demand both a crystal-clear signal and extreme crash resilience.
Engineered for Extreme Durability
The Matchstick is built to survive the absolute worst. Its defining feature is the Kevlar-reinforced coax cable, providing incredible tensile strength and resistance to being cut by propellers or torn in a crash. The antenna element itself is housed in the same hardened, foam-infused case found on other durable TrueRC antennas, protecting it from direct impacts. If you are hard on your FPV drone equipment, this is the antenna for you.
Singularity Performance Inside
This incredible toughness doesn’t come with a performance penalty. The Matchstick uses the same advanced “Singularity” antenna element inside, delivering a high 1.9dbic gain, an incredible 99% radiation efficiency, and excellent cross-polar rejection. This means you get the best-in-class, interference-free video signal you expect from TrueRC, with the added peace of mind that your antenna can take a serious beating.
Key Features:
- Kevlar Reinforced Cable: Provides exceptional tensile strength, making the cable highly resistant to being torn or cut by propellers in a crash.
- Hardened Protective Case: A foam-infused, durable shell protects the sensitive antenna elements from direct impacts.
- 99% Radiation Efficiency: Delivers a crystal-clear video signal with maximum range by converting nearly all VTX power into a usable signal.
- High 1.9dBi Gain: Offers excellent range and signal penetration for an omnidirectional antenna.
- RHCP & LHCP Options: Allows you to choose the correct polarization to match your goggle antennas and avoid interference from other pilots.
- Engineered by TrueRC: Carries the reputation and performance guarantee of one of the most trusted brands in FPV antennas.
Important: Choose Your Polarization
To ensure compatibility and the best possible signal, please verify your equipment before ordering. This version features a standard SMA connector and is available in multiple polarizations. Remember to match the polarization of the antenna on your FPV goggles for the best signal quality.
