help :( antenna mod :( crip. cap.
 

I just did the antenna mod for my controller and I still only get 7 feet from my Bit Char-G Blue Skyline :(

I did it differently from the QFM. Instead I took out the old antenna, and superglued the new antenna to the controller, I soldered the wire directly to the new antenna afterwards. Was removing the old antenna and/or superglueing the new antenna the reason i'm getting crappy range?

How do I unsolder the crip. cap. from the car? sold. pencil? unsolder it from the bottom of the PCB?

There has to be a metal bond such as solder and not super glue.

"I soldered the wire directly to the new antenna afterwards"

try testint your range in a different location, if you haven't already. I made this mistake in my house, when I thought my antenna mod wasn't working. I was testing it in an area with lots of interference.
