Hi guys, i've seen on the internet the modificaiton to this radio, so i'd gave it a try.. and turned my quad into the pokeradio...

my radio didn't have any range issues before i just wanted to do it, because i could
you will need your radio:
and few parts:
Antena RPSMA link - http://www.banggood.com/2_4GHz-10dBi-Wir...40255.html
RPSMA host on ipex - http://www.banggood.com/10cm-PCI-UFL-IPX...24933.html
you will need:
first remove batteries and unscrew 4 screws (philips)
open the case and you will see the whole electronics inside:
for me the most intresting parts are two antena connectors (Ipex)
ok a closeup of where i think ill put the antena sockets to:
make 2 holes using the hot tool (or heated nail) and enlarge them using the rounded file:
first socket mounted and connected:
both sockets connected:
how i've mounted sockets on the chassis:
PokeRadio in full glory:
as i finished it... now my expectation is that it can fly to the moon and back with those antennas

you will need:
- Philips screwdriver
- rounded file (small one)
- something hot to melt the plastic (or old soldering iron )
- Antena sockets have as described 10cm of cable... this isn't enough to easily mount it - originally i wanted to have them on both sides, to do so you will need longer cables. if you are ok with having both antennas on one side you can stick to 10 cm
- location of the antenna sockets... i've made a hole in perfect spot so my cables will fit... but i haven't thought enough on how to put the socket through... there is a screw support that is blocking it (my solution was to angle the hole and push it through, final result looks good but it could be better)
- remember after changing the antennas to sockets you will need antennas connected or you can fry your transmitter
