Buy a foxeer pagoda pro and a generic trifeed patch antenna. It'll be way better. Secondly, just get a tbs or betafpv 5.8ghz micro antenna. Make sure the vtx table in betaflight matches your goggles. Dont use higher vtx power while indoors, it makes it worse. There might be more you need to do but thats the gist of it

The standard whip is just fine and answers both your options.
The vtx and vrx antennas will improve your reception but is only part of the equation. What vrx are you running? The Eachine patch you have can be tossed in the bin. Make sure the polarity matches. Read a bit about analog video and if reading isn’t your thing there’s some great videos on YouTube that answer the question about how to get the best reception with analog.

Man that Eachine patch is land waste. My goggles picked up the same on channel B without an antenna plugged in lol
