35mhz Aerial's

[Delta Whiskey]

Yes, I still fly a few models on 35mhz as well as some on 2.4ghz both Futaba.

The aerial on the 35, broke at the top recently, and I went to just swop it from an older 2 channel set I had laying around, and noticed it was a bit longer. Then I remembered my early days before digital and realised it must have been for a different frrquency, and on checking the 2 channel Tx it was indeed a set for 27mhz.

I found another 35mhz set and swopped the aerials over, I am correct in using the same length one? (logic tell me so, as to the sine wave signal amplitude?)

Not quite, for instance the aerials on my 35 MHz Multiplex Tx (and older Fleet Tx) are longer than on the Futaba/JR sets. But if you are using the same length replacement then it should be fine..................
