FlySky FS-GT2 — antenna hinge back on duty
FlySky FS-GT2 RC transmitter
A well-used FlySky FS-GT2 pistol-grip transmitter arrived with a broken antenna and a snapped plastic hinge clip. We reattached the antenna with a suitable bolt and nut so it folds and stands upright again.
Work in progress
The repair
The antenna stalk had failed at the base hinge—the plastic clip that holds the antenna upright was broken, so the antenna would not stay mounted or fold correctly. We cleared the broken clip material, aligned the hinge points, and reattached the antenna with a suitable bolt and nut through the pivot so the stalk is secure again and can be raised for use.
