Quick fix for this little skew ?

I've broken the skew on my Aurora100... I actually think I managed to do it whilst looking at a noise issue.... which at least seems to be gone.  The problem is that the little piece of wire between the top and bottom lobe sections has broken.  There's a gap where the arrow is pointing.



These are only a few £ from Banggood, but they are a few weeks away, so was just looking for a quick fix for now.  Presumably I need to resolder the little bit of wire poking out to the top lobe section... not much room.  Anythings worth a go though, as it's gets snowy really quickly at the moment

Yeah, you might get away with just heating the solder up and hoping it wicks down onto the wire, otherwise you will just need to try and strip a bit of the white insulation off to reveal more wire. I'd avoid powering it up just now though as effectively you don't have a proper antenna on it just now so could damage the VTx. Should be ok on a 25mW for a while, but best not to risk it.

I swished my one day one, so after I straitened it, I dabbed it up with hot glue.
Been good ever since.
