Don’t think I’d try this installation. Maybe they could sell ready fitted controllers to those of us who would be nervous about doing it. That shot of the controller being twisted open put me right off.
Actually that installation is very easy. 4Hawks were never very good at their tutorial videos 
The hardest part is getting the old antennas out as they can be a real pain to snap out. Using the needle nose pliers like he did helps but still a pain. The X-stars mod is much harder but many of us where able to perform it without to much trouble.

That’s a really good point I discovered after flying with one on an XSP. Yes, range was increased in ideal conditions as long as you are facing the drone precisely. I’ve switched RC’s b/c the left stick broke inside the RC. I thought I’d noticed a dramatic difference and be compelled to tear it apart and fix it immediately. I haven’t. My spare RC’s range is reduced somewhat, but I’ve noticed greater flexibility in my positioning, AND, I can move the rabbit ears to partially compensate... If I had to do it again, I’m not sure I would — but the XSP install is really a *itch. If it was easier, maybe...
Hmmm... once you got you antennae to RP-SMA connectors you could do all kinds of cool things with them. Want to remote mount them on a 30’ telescopic mast to reduce interference from trees? I wonder if you could use WiFi antennas with them? They are both 2.4 gigahertz right?
