i also solidered a heavier gauge antenna on the PCB...unfortunately, it turned out to be too heavy gauge and too much coating - weighted the car down and caused it to flip when turned.

so, i'll try that again with some ethernet cable wire.

that actually brings me to another question: i have read that commercial grade ethernet cable is a good choice for this mod because of the gauge and the fact that it is solid. however, my commerical grade cable IS NOT solid - NOR is the stock antenna wire on my MS.

but, i'll give it a try anyways. it's heavier that stock wire but much lighter than the stuff i just tried - can't be any worse!
