Hi Gaurav,

Hmm..How do we find out if this would fit my radio ?

Of course, the description doesnt say that it would fit a futaba 6exap. But you never know.

Any suggestions ?

I think this will fit without hassle. And even if it doesn't, it would just be a matter of finding the right screw.

Atul,
The only thing that would cause a problem is the thickness. I can measure the diameter of the antennae and confirm to you in the evening. Then the other thing that might be different is the thread at the bottom. Lets speak later today and we can see if the one i have will work for you.

Yes the threads at the bottom has to be confirmed but like sunlikestar said maybe you can find an alternate way to attach it too.

I am not sure but wont the length of the antenna affect the range? no?

But i still feel, atul, you should switch to 2.4Ghz now, if you dont find a perfect match

No! do not listen to this bad advise, you cant go goo goo herd just because you broke an antenna. And what if they introduce a new technology next year, will you start all over again  ???

 :giggle: again, its just an antenna; which he has found already, he's just looking for a local alternative :thumbsup:

bokilap

Yes i went looking for an antenna in local market with him.
We coudnt find a perfect match. Either the length was way too short, the attachment was wrong or something or the other...but isnt antenna one of the important componants of the radio?
Isnt correct specification antenna necessary for your radio?

If he dosent find a suitable antenna, he should not compromise for something and put a glider like easystar in air with this...the disaster will cost him a lot.

Peace with Mhz frequency  :thumbsup:
