Drone Side Antenna Mods

[Matts175]

Jeez. Someone is making an absolute fortune off of the "soldering gun challenged". Those dipoles cost about $1.00 to make by yourself at home. The dimensions are no secret. Heck, I have one in my junk drawer that I made for my Syma X5c. I'm in the wrong business if people are paying $50 for those.

Buy this: 12" RP-SMA Male to RP SMA Male Plug RF Pigtail Cable RG316 LW SZUS | eBay

Cut it in half.

Then make 2 of these: RC Groups - View Single Post - Dipoles for 2,4Ghz Receivers

Similar to standard RC .... people pay for Rx antenna .... but really each is only shielded wire with unshielded active end. Pal of mine has a roll of such cable and just adds the plug .... about 20 cents a throw.
