Wow ! i was shocked about allllllll the features of this ground station! but what do you think about the antenna tracking and the gruond station ??
TOmas
EDIT I found a nother thread ! but this one wouldn't be deleted ?? i don't understand..
its great
short and good conclusion !
But the cheap price makes me think about the quality :/ the oracle diversiti costs about 140-150$ ! but i think I would like the Eagle eyes best thouge !

I've got one, but I haven't used it yet, so I'm also interested in anyone's experiences with it. I have other Eagle Tree equipment, and the flight recorder pro with amp and rpm sensors seems to work just fine on my T-Rex 600e! I like ET stuff because it's kind of modular and you can add features/options as you go. Some people seem to hate ET stuff though, for their own reasons I guess...
I use eagle eyes with two 1.3Ghz receivers with patch and an omni antennas and it works great. I can choose the sensitivity of the diversity function and the unit beeps at me when it changes receiver (which I like).
The four video outputs are very useful too.
AND it is cheap
You can't go wrong.
I've order a 1.3ghz tx+rx now so in the future I am planing to buy annother one and the EE ground station! Have any one tried the anntenna tracking ?
@juz : I agree! I thought about that it would be nice if it made me know wich tx i used, And it seems like it does (te beep)
Yes four videos is very lovely !

I only have 1 antenna connected atm, but I tested with 2 whip antennas and could clearly hear the beeps when EagleEyes changed to the better of them 2
I will build a BiQuad and attach to my groundstation

Its easy to connect extra monitor, camcorder, goggles and extras.
I power my Groundstation with a 2200Mah 3S LIPO
built in servo outputs for tracking is sweet
My casing and antenna tracker is from electronicarc.
works great!
only one problem, i used with 2 HEXTRONIC cheap servos and the problems starts...
the cheap servos makes the video signal very noisy... then i had to power the servos from another batery....
No problem with HITEC, or FUTABA servos
I use the supplied servos by ElectonicaRC's pan/tilt system for EagleEyes
Works OK
I was looking for EagleEyes too because I'm using Eagletree OSD and I know that EagleEyes beside of Diversity will bring to me nice other features, and it's cheaper that other Diversity systems alone.
Tomas, I think the price not every time is proportional with quality. Oracle diversity was one of the first in the market, and in 2007 a Diversity system was supposed to cost a lot. That's not right in 2011 when technology progress increased so fast, and components become more and more accessible.
