I am thinking of getting a 5db antenna to fit onto my FrSky DFT module that is currently in my Eclipse. Apart from being a bit more sensitive it is also longer as well. The stock 2db antenna only just makes it above the top of the transmitter casing and if I am holding it in my hands horizontally (as you would when controlling a model) I am concerned that the RF signal from the TX will be less than optimal.
I have already modded the casing on the DFT so that the 2db antenna is now pointing upwards. On the Hitec TX's the module slot is upside-down as opposed to the Futaba TX's for some reason. Does anyone know what the FrSky antenna connection type is? I am aware of RP-SMA but these are too big to fit on the FrSky.
Also, is it possible to move the antenna so that you could fit it to the top of the TX? Is there a kit you could install to allow you to extend the wire out of the back of the FrSky module and onto an antenna glued to the top of your TX?
