I have a Typhoon H Pro and have noticed that parts are becoming scarcer. Bought a TH on e-bay that a hobby store is parting out. Seems that parts are worth more than complete drone. The one I bought is supposed to be new and included complete copter except camera and landing gear. Upon inspection I noticed that there is only one silver antenna that exits body near landing gear. Also, this antenna is only 1 inch long (all others I have seen are about 3.5" long. I contacted seller who replied that this is an older version of the TH. He further said that the second antenna is located inside body and cannot be seen without removing body shell. So, I removed shell and found second antenna wire mounted near the RF ant module (see pics). This antenna was also only 1" long. So...my question is if this is in fact normal and whether it can affect the signal range. I know that the lenght of many rc antennas is critical and that they should not be altered. Is it OK to fly this way or should I get new antenna module that has the 3.5" silver exposed wires?
