Pros & Cons
Pros
Use a gain that maximizes the signal quality. The antenna are stronger and seem to be better tuned to frequency than what i did by hand. The ahrs module with fan controller is out of stock across the internet.
Works like a charm. Works perfectly. It works as advertised.

Competitiveness
I tried fltplan and avare and both work flawlessly.
Size is perfect for rasberry pi compared to other sdr radios.
Stratux offers a similar kit that just gives you the larger antennas.

Although i did one by one it was still easy to confuse them so i used permanent marker as i had to keep test fitting them as i routed the cables
