SMA antenna has prong?

[Ian G.]

So I finally got my antennas in the mail and found out that the antennas have a prong in the center and so does the fpv receiver and transmitter... I swore I ordered everything right but apparently not.. Could I fix this problem and way easily? Could I simply remove the prongs from the antennas?

Thanks in advance!

Just get an SMA to RP-SMA adapter, removing the prong would be bad, and could cause your Tx or RX to burn out.


Here is one I bought.

Ok! Is a adapter going to dull the signal at all?

A little due to the resistance, but should not make too bad a difference unless you are doing a LRS, if you want you can solder a new connector on your Rx or Tx.
