Hi,
I want a pair of 90 degree adaptors to fit my skew plana antenna to my Fatsharks and Rx
I don't know what the proper spec /description is or where I can source some ?
I've trawled shops on the web but haven't found any
,
Who sells them  ? and what should I be asking for please ?
Thanks Noel
Ha Ha ,
I just clicked the very next post after mine and found out they're called SMA right angle adaptors ,
Are there different sizes /threads ?
Mine are 5.8 mgz antennas ,onto fatsharks and  a hobby king Rx
,cheers ,
WHO SELLS THEM ?

They will be SMA connectors. You get SMA male, SMA female, SMA-RP (reverse polarity) male and SMA-RP female. Without seeing your setup I couldn't say what you need, but others will have Fatsharks.
I get all mine from the Far East via Ebay because the UK prices are high. There are plenty of sellers.

For Fatshark equipment you need SMA male to SMA female right angle connectors. This is correct assuming your antennas also have SMA connectors.
What exact antennas have you got and where did you get them from ?

They do already screw directly in to the fatsharks ,
so all I need is right angle versions of regular fatshark fittings
what size should I ask for ?

SMA only come in one size, but you have to determine the gender and whether or not reverse polarity. Post a clear picture of the existing connectors on the antenna and Fatsharks.

I always order mine for Chinese ebay sellers because most retailers over here want £10 plus for one!

Granted they (the uk supplied ones) are probably gold plated (with real gold) and tested properly I've not had any problems with the £1 Chinese ones :D

UK or Chinese ?

Normally depends not on cost - but how impatient / how quickly you want the things !
