You need help................. and not just in this thread lol :)

They are called SMA connectors, you want male SMA either straight or Angled ( 90 degree ) for antenna that plug into Immersion / Fatshark receivers

There's SMA and RP-SMA. Check to see if the pin is in the antenna end or the Rx end.
I have to see pictures 'cos I don't know which is the RP (reverse polarity?) sort or not or wot.

Male SMA (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SMA-Male-Crimp-Connector-for-Coaxial-RG316-RG174-/291115642098?pt=UK_Computing_Boosters_Extenders_Antennas&hash=item43c7d82cf2) To fit Immersion / Fatshark using RG316 cable

To get an angled Male SMA in the UK is like trying to get hold of rocking horse shit, I always end up getting mine from China in bulk.

But Here (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/SMA-male-right-angle-crimp-RG174-RG316-connector-/220775263720?pt=UK_Mobile_Phones_Communication_Coax_Cables_Connectors&hash=item33673b2de8) is a link for a China source

Yeah yeah, thanks guys... I think Mr WGT has the idea.... I need 'em cos I didn't get any right angle adapters with my spironets.... so the stalk has to be bent to align horizontally.... you dig brothers? Can't be good for it to be bent, fatigue's gonna set in far quicker eh? I'll order a couple. Thans again.......
