2.4GHZ Antenna Problems
After a pretty long day of bashing my Slayer Pro in the snow and such (and having to get a pair of knuckles for it, smacked a curb) I took my truck home and back out after installation of the knuckles. When I got out there everything was fine, when I took it to a very acceptable distance it would not respond, fail safe mode, after looking at it further I saw that I was missing the very tip of my antenna. The whole antenna is a black wire with a metal sleeve towards the end and white wire for the last inch or so. I am missing that white wire, I don't know how it happened but that's not my concern, I want to know where I can find a replacement and how to replace it. I have replaced an FM antenna before and it works perfectly. But I have heard the 2.4GHZ antennas can be tricky. Oh, and I have looked in the parts books and tried to do some towerhobbies searches with no luck. All help is greatly appreciated!

I think I should have specified this is on the receiver, and I have absolutely no idea what happened to it. I have been researching more and I now have the idea to pull some of the metal off, and stripping the wire. To increase the range back.
