[NSRCA-discussion] Futaba 9z with Spektrum SPMMSFUT7

[Stuart Chale]

Is there a reason that they can't make it so that a new antenna replaces the
old one?  Having the antenna attached to the module like the Futaba ones
seem to do also look like an afterthought (which I guess it is).  Not sure
how they will work with transmitter trays without modification to the tray.

I agree with the "kludge" description, but this isn't Futaba's  
module.  This is the Spektrum module for the Futaba 9Z.
