Extending a 2.4Ghz Antenna

sparkyjack

i have a controller (RX) with a stubby 2.4Ghz antenna  that extends from the fully encapsulated  controller 

However because of the position of the controller, I have intermittent connection from the hand held transmitter

I wish to extend the antenna aprroximately 2 meters so that  the Transmitter has better connection

How do I connect to the bare 30mm existing antenna?

Thank you

Jack

  • Another option might be to wire a switch to the device, i.e. position the existing device+antenna wherever signal is good, and run the wire to the switch where it is convenient.

    (Or extend the wires on the controller, depending on whether it's the transmitter or receiver end that is easier/more practical to extend or not). Extending antennas that are not intended for it can be problematic (will need more info to determine that). Some may be fine, some may not.

    It really depends on the devices, detailed photos are needed.
