Default RE: New Hitec Aurora 9-Channel 2.4Ghz Radio System

One of my planes is a Kyosho PT-17 biplane with an OS .70 four stroke. Ihave a Hitec 2.4 GHZ, seven channel Rx installed in the front cockpit for easy access. The BODA antenna body is hard mounted with the antenna end pointing up. There have been no range problems so far. Today while I was running it at the fieldInoticed the little end wire vibrating in a small arc about 1/4 inch wide at the antenna tip. Iwill try to get a picture of the motion this week. I am going to probably soft mount the boda clamp etc to try to dampen the motion since I am sure the connection will not last long as is.

You guys might want to take a look at your little things while revving up your engines. I am talking about your BODAs!
