X Lite Stealth Crossfire Antenna Adapter

thingiverse

If you're assembling the Xlite with the Crossfire micro "stealth mod", beware of this common problem. The instructions ask you to trim the header pins on the Crossfire micro, but they don't warn you that it can be too short! If the SMA connector won't fit between the boards, you'll need to modify the Xlite case to get it to work properly. To fix this issue, I removed the original antenna mount from inside my radio. Now all I had was a hole on the outside of the Xlite - no countersink hole at all! After clearing away the excess plastic, I had a flat surface where I could attach the adapter. This raised the antenna slightly higher, so I didn't need to squeeze the cable between the boards on the Crossfire micro.
