yes after about an hour of scratching my head with a few cigarettes in between and cursing the plane for a coward lol j/k the light bulb came on i lengthened the hole and used some tygon and silicone as a buffer lemme know what u think.At first i didnt think 3" arms were cutting it but after a little engineering they work great.Please excuse the mess but i am sure u guys can relate

on another note i gotta say i am not used to this big of a plane having only one tiny switch for the reciever this ar9100 sure is something also got my data logger in the mail today nifty little gadget if u ask me
