RC-Hangout

Ok guys...a few of you know that I have a new ZMR250 quad coming to me....in fact, it should be here today. I did notice that there seems to be a hole at the rear of the top plate that can be drilled out a bit and an antenna extension can be added to reduce "impact strain" on the antenna in the event of a crash. That being said, is this what I'm looking for here:

If not, please check www.buddyrc.com for me and show me which one would be suitable. It looks like they have several to choose from.

Thanks guys!!!

That's the correct cable for fat shark applications. I broke 2 FS vtx before I used one of these cables and haven't broken one since I started using these.

Ordered a couple a month ago, but still on the slow boat from China.

I use a similar one on my Fossil

Thanks Dan! Yeah, when I crashed my HK Dart 250, the vtx survived. When I crashed my ECHO 290, not so lucky, lol. Now that I have a new ZMR250, I definitely want that extension. It just makes sense and it's just cheap vtx insurance.

These "slow boats" really need to consider how badly we need our parts. Must go faster!!! End of rant, lol.

Cool! Like I said, I'll definitely be using this extension from now one. I'll actually need 3 of these. One for my ZMR, one for my Skyfun, and one for my 1.3ghz system that is on my FPV canard (still to be maidened, lol)

Thanks guys!
