Dji spark remote controller antenna loose

[Ariyanoe]

Hi guys
since I bought my spark I understood that the left antenna is loose and I don't know how to fix it and unfortunately I can't send it to djis repair center, one of my friends told me pour some glue in the joint of antenna.
If you had any ideas pleas help me.

Taking the controller apart doesn't look fun but doable:

Instead maybe a small rubber O ring over the base of the antenna might hold it in place or even better you could try the following product:

Mavic Remote Controller Antenna Brace | Phantom Help

Stick a DJI Phantom, Mavic, Spark, or Inspire decal on drone case or car window

A parabolic antenna reflector would also work but you might not want to use one in every situation.

Do not glue it, instead if you look where the antenna pivots on top of the remote if you look close you should see a tiny little dowel, push lightly on each dowel that will tighten the arm from falling, there should be 2 dowels per arm one on each side of each arm, you can use a small nail or whatever you have that would fit. Good luck with it, &

Hi sparkwon
I looked at the antennas really carefully but I couldn't see dowel, if it's possible send some photos that shows exact location of those dowels or explain more clear.
I know it's not so important but Iike to fix it.
Thanks alot

Hi Rotorwash
Taking apart seems to be hard but using parabolic antenna reflector is a better way but you know it's not pleasant to use this thing for every flight
Thank u
