OI Photography said:What's different between that one and the standard 5.8GHz receiver (other than having the antennae removed)?
OI Photography said:Right, all the description really says is that the antennae are removed, so I was wondering if there were any other differences besides that.
Are people really having so much trouble removing those that they'll pay twice the price of the part? I guess I'm selling the wrong services :shock:

I wont comment on the price, since I guess it's worth what people are willing to pay, but I will say that it's not a horrible idea selling the modded RX, especially if somebody has alredy tried (and failed) to do it successfully. It must have taken me the better part of an hour to scrape that "stuff" off of mine. I had two Phantoms to mod and I actually busted the U.FLs on the first one and had to solder new ones onto the pads. By the second RX I pretty much had it figured out, but the time it took for both the removal and repair was probably closer to 3 hours.

I then used a fine tip soldering iron and this seemed to soften it up more easily. I still broke the darn thing, though, but I probably wasn't patient with the scraping, and I've purchased a modified one. I think I want to try, though, once more with a stock one, heating up the black goo and see if that does the trick. I think it will work with patience.
OI Photography said:Yeah I didn't realize that was such a pain to deal with. That board in the pic above is the v3 model from an FC40 but I'm assuming the black glue is the same?
