The antenae on my DX6 was damaged in Qatar and I am looking to buy a replacement - anyone have one? Or can point me in the direction where I can get one?
Anyone have one surplus that I could buy off them?

Dear Sir,
Unfortunately we do not sell the antenna for your transmitter separately. You will need to send the radio into our service department. They will look it over and see what they need to do to get you taken care of. If you send the radio in, send it to:
Horizon Service
Attn: Spektrum Service
4105 Fieldstone Rd.
Champaign, IL 61822
Make sure you include a note explaining what problems you are having with the radio and if possible, a copy of the receipt from when you purchased it.
Hope this information is helpful for you,
Steve

Heres a possible replacement.

Send it to the states - cheaper to buy a new one.
Thanks Woody, might buy the antenae on second link.

Possible fix...

Nice idea Woody - problem is the cable and sender are intact, but the outer sleeve above the pivot is missing.
I think I shall have to make a replacement along the lines of the last post while it is still working.
Tried to buy off horizonhobby but will not ship to UK.

I bought a replacement antenna for my DX6 at the local hobby shop in my home town.
Your right Leo ...they do seem readily available.
Odd that Spektrum are being awkward!
Well I ordered a few from Horizon hobbies, the ones you mentioned above but they sent the newer style with the swivel arial which do not fit the models it states. I think they have discontinued the older version, so i would just keep an eye out for anyone who has them.
I have to admit it was me who broke poor trevors ariel.
It was something to do with fitting 6 roboteers into a small 4x4 at 1am one night (or morning), I was the fool who was squashed into the boot along with mighty mouses complete electronics as we needed to rewire it at the hotel.
Sorry trevor !!
