5.8 Fat Sharks. Antenna coax not connected.

Hello. I need help.

I bought a set of Fat Shark goggles late last year. The ones with a built in 5.8 receiver. The range was so bad.... about 20 feet.

I didn't want to mess about sending them back so I bought the Fat Shark 600mw transmitter.   The range was far better but still not good enough to go flying with.

They sat on the shelf for months. I had an idea to buy a separate receiver and just use them as goggles. So, I got them out again. Bloody Hell!   Dust on the screens.

I decided to carefully take them apart and clean them.   I really was careful.   I found that the antenna coax inside was not connected!

It seems to me that I need to solder it on.   But, where does it go?

I think that I can see where it had been soldered. But I can only see one place.   Is it the shield or the centre wire? I have no idea.

I have tried to get help from the rcgroups forum.   Lots of people have read my post.   No one can help me.

Right then :-)   I have come to where the real brains are!   Surely one of you clever lot will have no problem with this.

I think that the antenna was never connected and if I can solder it on I will be able to go out and play. It's agony not being able to try FPV.

Thanks very much.

Andrew.

I was just thinking about that.   As soon as I get home I'll take a few pictures of it. And, I'll try to explain it better.

Thanks for replying. It gives me hope :-)

Not sure whether to report dalek87 as missing or on a long journey home, in anticipation of the photos!
