|  Traxxas reciever & soldering antennae?
I have a traxxas tq3 radio system in my scx10. I was running it at the first of winter and experimenting with a faster motor. After many rollovers the antennae got ripped out of the reciever. I haven't torn into it yet. I wondering if the reciever is a lost cause or can it be taken apart and the antennae soldered back on. Anybody ever done it? Thanks.

Yes, you can solder it back on. They sell antenna wire if you lost the original, I have never tryed regular wire not sure if it would effect the range or not.

yes it can be soldered back on but from my experience when doing it the range sometimes goes down a bit but i wouldnt worry about it in any trail truck or crawler

there is a certain lenght the wire is supposed to be. I suggest looking that up and replacing the wire right off the board at the correct length
