Kiwi - I've noticed that the Spektrum antennae are, at best, fragile. What do others do to protect those little sprouts when you install the Rx and remote?

TIA
I coat the antenna with a bit of epoxy then cover them with a short lengt (half inch or so) of shrink tubing and let it all set. I've done thatg with all of my 2.4GHz antennae and it works just fine.
