Support for Taranis antenna plug

thingiverse

This is a support designed specifically for an RPSMA antenna plug used in the FrSky Taranis RC controller, replacing the built-in fixed antenna. The support seamlessly fits into an unaltered case and features exceptional sturdiness. It also works perfectly with SMA connectors if you prefer. To build this design, use thick top and bottom layers, ideally 1.0 mm, and moderate infill settings for optimal results. PLA is a viable choice for material, but ABS may offer even better performance. Fine-tune the tolerance setting to achieve an exact fit with your printer's capabilities. Assembly requires two M3 screws, either cylinder head or recessed type. Ensure that the threaded holes are tapped with an M3 tap or opt for the version featuring two M3 nuts instead. The nutted version is likely stronger and preferred. For instructions on replacing the fixed antenna with a removable connector, visit http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2129736. RPSMA pig tails, 2.4 GHz antennas, and uFL PCB coax connectors are widely available from various sources, including Adafruit.
