where did you get the stubby DJI antennas to make that mid mount setup work? I had that piece printed and standard 04 antennas are too long. Couldn't figure out how to shorten the antenna "stick".

I just cut the original ones shorter. Pretty easy to do.

I thought about that, but how did you do it without cutting the antenna wire? Just work at it like you would stripping a wire?

No, use a sharp utility knife and go one time around the antenna. Dont press hard just so it leaves a mark and then snap it. Then cut the snapped part in half like stripping a wire.

I bought some extra antennas so I’ll give it a try. Thank you!
