Yes - that's an excellent point. The P4P has the unique feature of being able to toggle from 2.4 ghz to 5.8 ghz and back again. And so any "tuned" antenna you get will work best for one and not well at all for the other.
The windsurfer works for both frequencies.
As far as linear / circular, it's hard to make a blanket assessment of what's best in every case. There are valid arguments for both. Linear is certainly easier and cheaper, as you don't have to mod the AC, since linear is stock. My experience reading through the forums is that, in general, most pilots find the LITELITE (linear) provides a little better performance over FPVLR (circular). But again, it depends on your particular flying environment. I actually have both, and for me, I found the ITELITE to provide better range.
Regardless, if you do decide to go with a better antenna someday, you'd have to decide what frequency is best for you, first. And then be willing to stay in that frequency. Because your modded antenna will match that frequency.
If you're interested, take a look at what the world class distance guys use for their P3s (2.4 ghz): http://www.phantompilots.com/thr ... -leaderboard.76464/
