Can you shorten antenna wires on say a XM+ or is going to severely hurt range? It' only for a tiny whoop. I have a FuriousFPV acrowhoop v2 spektrum and I just got a new taranis x9d plus se & I'm gonna try and put a xm+ on the board so I don' have to buy a new board. Will this even work? I don' think the frysky & spektrum boards are different other than the rx right? Well the antenna wires are quite long and I could glue them around the ducts. I' just curious how badly it would affect the range to cut say 1/3 of the antennas off. Thx for any help. Edit: I just realized this probably won't work because dsmx is 3.3v and frsky is 5v and there is only 3 pins on the board.
