Good luck with that. Had the same thing happen a year ago on my 3.0, but it was the plastic threaded portion that broke. The wire stayed intact.
I called Spektrum, and their wonderful customer service guy told me that I had to send it in for them to repair - If I tried to repair it myself, I WOULD void my warranty because the installation of the antenna is VERY critical to the performance of the radio (the warranty wouldn't cover the cost of the repairing the antenna BTW). Price, minimum 75 dollars, plus parts, plus shipping.
I took the thing apart, and the antenna is held on by a nut on a post. I put it back in place, superglued the plastic that broke, and its run great ever since.
