Time after time I go looking on UA-cam for help with things. Today I am looking for options on how to repair some broken SMA connectors, or just to reinforce them, and JC’s video pops up. This kid was so smart and helpful in the R/C, FPV community… it just breaks my heart knowing we lost such a great kid and a fellow motorcyclist. I hope his channel stays up.
Yet another video of JC's that helped me get back in the air flying FPV, thanks man. All my best to his family, he's missed in this hobby.
Amazing. This man is still teaching me about the hobby. You are truly missed. Rest in power!
It so sad that J C Not here anymore 😢 but he's still a legend in FPV STILL IN 2021
The instructional videos are fantastic. They have content for noobs as well as long time to this hobby. Thank you.
thanks
Dude you rock. This is exactly what I needed. Just shortened my antenna cable nicely.
Thanks for this video. You are the Man. Although I do FPV, your video helped me replace a broken SMA connector on a Slim Jim ham radio antenna without having to buy the expensive stripper and crimper.
took me SO LONG to find a tutorial on how to solder one of these!! thank you. I'm using it as headphone connectors (trust me, not as crazy as it sounds) and I could not for the life of me figure out how I was supposed to solder my wires to the male connector
Keep these videos up man! I have already learned so much from you! Good job brother.
instablaster...
Im doing my final year project, Im having a tad problem with the SMA connector, your video helps a lot, thank you so much!
I keep coming back to double check a few things here and there, RIP Legend!
is he dead bro?
Thanks for more great info JC.
It's a best video about antenna soldering i can found. Thank you!
Thanks, Just in time because I ordered all the materials to try to make my own.
Incredibly helpful video. Thank you for posting it!
This is just the tutorial I needed thanks RIP my dude
2021 and still helping ❤
Rest easy friend❤
Thanks a million, I purchased the sleeve crimping tool, that was a waste, I have repaired my little antenna lead many times using the tool, of late I decided that I needed to solder that center pin, that fixed some problems but still the ends pull off if not treated with kid gloves and I haven't owned a pair of them since my Army days in the early 70's. I have another pack of ends coming, in the next set, I will follow your instructions and see if my little radios will run right with the good method of repair.
you my friend have just earned another subscriber :D
Good stuff, as usual!
Great vid JC.
Very informative and well done..... thanks!
Ahh this is the exact info I needed thanks for the video. R.I.P.
Great instructional video.
Nice video. Thank you for doing it.
I never heard before of soldering the shield to the sma. Magnificent labour saver and re-doable too! Great.
RIP :/
Perfect video as always.
This was great!!
Thank you.
i always wanted to do this. Great video. Just a question the right angle bulkhead, if you do not solder the inner core signal wire to the pin is there a possibility in a crash or even just bending the rg cable inner core wire get push inside and contacting the outer wall. Have you seen this happen before?
I enjoyed this instructional video!! How many watts will this cable handle?
omg that was so genious! thank you so much for making this video!
It's very useful. Thank you so much.
Thnx man you are the best
Very well done. Thanks.
Nice one PBF!
Is it also possible to use the existing sat-comnectors and adaptors F connector to SMA? Or will I have a weak connection by doing so?
Have you tried copper coaxial cable for antennas?
Subscribed, Keep up the good work.
Thanks! Glad to have you.
BTW i would be very interested to try out your best antennas. I konw that your antennas are beta version but I would be more than happy to buy a pair.
I just learned so much from your video thank you very much. How do you determine on the length for gmrs and or ham radios and can you use the 771 from gmrs radio 2 a ham radio and share the same antenna with open frequency. And just switch from gmrs two ham radio without changing antennas. Thank you very much for the great show Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you
Is it possible to connect it to an arduino uno? if so, where do I have to plug it in?
Thanks for a wonderful detailed video, certainly it is helpful for me. In addition, As the B-model SMB, although the connection speed is faster than A, sales is not as follows. and i think elecbee connectors from CHIna can be believable.
Thank for sharing, I got it.
What type of koax do you use?
Nice job.
Good thing that’s Teflon coax/connectors or you would totally turn your coax into a molten blob! You aren’t going to use this method on RG-174 , I understand the desire to reuse connectors but I’m also fairly sure these were never meant to be installed twice. Good luck! I will try this with some RG-316 see what I get
Great video
Good job great vid
Hi is this waterproof / can I put these cables on an antenna that's outdoors?
Thanks for the video :))
very helpful video thanks!
aliexpress have these connectors for $2.70 / 5 btw
jamble7k put a link mate, then the rest of us don't have to go hunting for it 😉
Do you know where I can buy W.FL ipex to RP-SMA as Its smaller than U.FL
what gauge wire can be used with SMA?
super...merci à toi
I only have one thing to tell you...... THANK YOU!! :-)
Any time bud. Thank you.
thank you
Nice
a dab of flux would work wonders for soldering the ground shield wire to the connector. Also, maybe snip a piece of solder into the pin and head it up versus trying to get a drop into a tiny opening.
Very interesting, I wish to solder a micro version of this coaxial wire (xbox series XS controller) and using that gauge you have would be easier. Are antenna, gauge specific? EDIT scrap that; Any thicker and it wouldn't have the correct SMA size
I don't have a connector, can I use a longer cable?
nice
i think it's a must to solder it
my sma connector is 'female' (or should i say, my radio has the pin)
can you do this the same way???
your advice on this (or video) would be much appreciated.
Cheers!
@Yinka in Brasil Sorry, did not realise. :(
Dude, you definately need another solder tip for these jobs, that little point tip will only be efficient for little solder pads... take a bit wider one (flathead screwdriver style) will distribute the heat very well. As i saw you using the tip on the bigger part of the tip...
i was wondering what cable has to be used. i was thinking on using a coaxial cable and putting this connectors. does has to be a special cable for the antennas frequencies? i want to make a long cable from a yagi to a huawei b310 router
Rest in peace brother.
Where is instruction for sma male connector installation?
Hi, Is it necessary to always solder the wire shields to the connector?
yep
What could I say? Thank you!!!
I lost the pin can we get it online pls guide
Thank you 💖🌈🌠.
tuck a linear antenna in the chassis or run it along the arm with heat shrink and never break another antenna.
R.I.P. JC..
RIP JC
I was really waiting for the RP SMA instructions... but those never came. :-(
i want to bay connector
So that fallower that crimps is useless which also makes the $40 tool I bought useless as well.
Do you sell those antennas? If so, how can i purchase a few?
He is dead
Rest in peace
I like to idea of soldering. Safe's some $$ from buying the equipment to shrink the sleeve on the connector..
Still learning from you bro RIP
In order to solder, the substrate (connector in this case) has to be brought upto temperature. Your solder joints are cold.
Not true. By definition a cold solder joint is one that is not melted completely, which may cause cracking or failure in the future. Just because he heated the cable more than the connector does not mean the joint is cold. Is it perfect technique? No. Will it fail in flight? No. Why? Enough solder is bound, and has melted completely. It's not perfect, but it's also not a cold joint.
Only replying to you because the creator died in a motorcycle crash a little over four years ago. So he cannot defend himself.
Exactly, even in death he has created a legacy of great training for us radio enthusiasts. Rest in peace old friend. Your sorely missed.
what ever it pushing down on it suppose to be solder js
RIP

It's a good video,just need to keep hands out of the Way.
I did put the heat shrink,, but it did not make my LIFE easy in any sense... i still struggle financially 🤔
Sorry to say but JC , is not gonna be able to comment, he has moved on , RIP. Blue falcon, we all miss him.
"Now take your heat shrink that you placed on earlier" FUUCK!!
I dont want to talk about poralize, what is a sma, your previous video, How did you buy it and etc... its all bullshits. i just want to talk about how to solder female sma.. thats all.
Time after time I go looking on UA-cam for help with things. Today I am looking for options on how to repair some broken SMA connectors, or just to reinforce them, and JC’s video pops up. This kid was so smart and helpful in the R/C, FPV community… it just breaks my heart knowing we lost such a great kid and a fellow motorcyclist. I hope his channel stays up.
omg what happened
JC crashed his motorcycle on June 29th and died from his injuries. www.thestate.com/news/local/article159041614.html
Very sad.
Tony Fall2Fast omg rip
