John,

Some people use 2.4Ghz wireless router antenna on the module.  That way, you don't have to worry about the antenna wire on the back.  Much better installation?  I don't know since, I use the module as is.

So far, I've sold dozens of Spektrum modules for Futaba 7U, 8U, 9C/Z.  None for the higher end TX other than the Futaba module sets.

I posted some pictures at RCU on 9Z installation of Spektrum Module.

9C is relatively simple also.
