Default DX3E antenna wire

If the antenna wire (in the radio) on these spektrum radios get broke do they work as good as new after being soldered back together?

It "likely will", but for a few $$, I would replace it myself. If it dosen't work, you may have voided your warranty when (if?) the TX dies.

If you contact them by email they should be able to supply one, Or your LHS should be able to order one in for you as well.

yea its like 10 bucks,

I couldn't find one for the 3e specifically, but this one, you should be able to get it to work.

However i'd suggest calling horizon and see if they will send you a direct replacement
