Broken Antenna on Spektrum Tx - 09.01.2008, 09:17 PM

I left my transmitter at the in-laws campsite last night, and just before I went to pick it up this morning, it got knocked off the table and the base of the antenna broke (snapped in half around the ring where the screw is). I think I can superglue the plastic back together, but there is now about 2" of excess wire. Can this just be shoved back up the inside of the antenna, or is there some trick to it - ie., is it wound inside the antenna?

If not, is there a vendor that might carry replacement parts? Im guessing that would have to come directly from Spektrum (or whoever manufactures them).

BTW, we had an awesome time through the week running in the sand on the beach. Made up a short course (complete with berms). We had three stock 3906 Emaxx's, a new E-Revo, my converted Revo, and a brushless 3905 Emaxx. The new E-Revo ran suprizingly well - the handling was incredible. the two brushless trucks had a helluva time keeping in a straight line no matter what tires we tried. Sometimes there is such a thing as too much power! I'm definitley buying a 3.3 chassis for a winter project.


Losi 8T 1.0, Savage Flux - XL style, LST XXL, Muggy, 3.3 E-Revo Conversion and sitting outside 425hp, 831 Tq Dodge Ram Turbo Diesel. It SMOKES
