Futaba 2.4gHz aerial NEED HELP URGENT

[barney]

OK Guys need your help here..Its a must have for this weekend

Desperate to locate an aerial for A Futaba 608 FASST RX (apparently there the same throughout the 2.4 gHz Futaba range)

UK Ripmax Pt No Y-9M08A15801 or USA HSP79493

Some model shops apparently have some but I
cant locate any.

If not can anyone give me a link to where I can by the Micro coaxial cable with a connecter as per picture..possibly the same as in a SpeKtrum aerial etc? or some good Radio communication shop where I can buy one. Brian

Cool Russ... thanx for the offer..(thats what makes this forum different)

Managed to get hold of a TX aerial exactly as your photo...ordered and on its way.

Lets just hope it does the job..LOL..but If anyone out there knows of any UK stock of the proper aerial (Y-9M08A15801) I'll still go with that option given the oppurtunity

Just Googled that serial No Brian and resulted in Ripmax having stock of parts..

I wish it were that easy Busterboy, I phoned there Service dept before posting to get the part No and see if they had any!... Out of Stock..worse still not expecting any for approx 5 weeks.

They did say they had sent some out to most of the BIG model shops but couldn't be more specific and suggested I phone around. I tried a few but as soon as you mention its an aerial only its a waste of time..(note it was the supermarket size shops I phoned and not the heli shops)

thanx for trying though Brian
