Does the receiver have an antenna? If so, how long is it? Return to Top
Yes, the stock antenna is 8.5” long making mounting the antenna easy. What’s more, if you prefer a shorter antenna, you can carefully cut the Spektrum receiver antenna to just 3.6” – and not lose any performance. This way, you can keep the antenna inside the body.


So 8.5-3.6 = 4.9" to cut off!

I accidentily cut the antenna on my SR3000 but I haven't noticed any ill effects. The antenna wire is now only 2.2" from the case (stubby) and it works fine. I haven't tried running it real far but 75 ft is no problem at all.
