What are the best tools to use for terminating these tiny Mavic antenna co-ax cables? I've successfully separated and soldered the shield and line connections to a factory Mavic antenna, but it was a pain trying to strip the insulation back and avoid soldering one big blob. I had to work under magnification. Is there are tool out there that makes this job easier?
I go to great lengths to avoid ever having to solder the tiny coax cables. I will order custom length of whatever I need, then use adapters as needed. Examples below:
cable IPX U.fl jack RG178 to RP.SMA plug female right angle 65mm pigtail FPV UAV | eBay
2-pack SMA Male to IPX U.FL Plug Connector Adapter | eBay
1pce SMA female jack to IPX U.fl male plug center RF adapter connector 756330775094 | eBay
