9Z lithium Battery

[Ed Schummer]

I recently tore into my 9Z WC2 to replace a broken
antenna (don't ask!), because someone on the Futaba
forum suggested that's what's needed to get the job
done.  Came across several layers of PC borards, the
lithium battery Verne mentioned on the sub-board, 
easy access to the gimbal springs (which I replaced),
etc., etc.,  -  only to discover in the end that the
antenna attachment could easily be accomplished
working through the battery compartment - all without
undoing a single screw on the housing!  

Great learning experience though.....Talk about "fear
factor"!
