It might be worth while checking Maplins, they sell a variety of aerials.   Pete M

Much is going to be made of "tuned length" of TX aerials before long, but for all practical purposes, in the case of a 27MHz set, as long as the replacement has the right thread mount at the bottom end and is of a diameter to fit down the hole in the case without surgery, and is about the same length as the original, it will work.

Thanks for the info Guys, my local Maplin do not carry stocks of replacement arials and The Servo Shop was too expensive. Rubdown has come to my rescue so special thanks to him. Cheers, Rob
