Howdy, managed to bugger one of my aerials in the rain last night, my fault totally I dropped my sodden coat on the boat and now it pulls apart, I pushed it back together but now the echo loses signal at about 50 yards. So anyway I have just ordered one from CL and the £20 postage stung a little, what I am wondering is there any of you used non cl ones, the ones online that go on the waverunners and shuttles look very similar but not sure if they would work on my boat. It is the 2.4 ghz one that I am after

I managed to snap the antenna on my Lake Reaper. That was also 2.4Ghz so just got a replacement from CPC.

Think it was this one

Cheers for that, I spoke to a guy who explained which I need and may have a couple I can have. Apparently the connection on the boat has either a pin sticking up from it which goes into the aerial or has a hole which accepts a pin from the aerial. Hope that makes sense, anyway the rt4 commection on the boat is the one with the hole
