A swivel mount for the Furious TrueD & TBS patch or any antenna with a bit of modding. The rod is 3mm diameter so match that to your coax length.
Patch enclosure pieces are made to be separate so different designs can easily be added, such as an non-swivel or different tilt angle. Happy to create for any patches sent to us. The screw collar (3m button head 6mm) allows for a glue-less assembly and disassembly for travel. The screw for the top is 3m countersunk 16mm and has an internal 3m 1/2nut recess.
The swivel / angle of top mount is designed to tilt with the angle of your head, the theory being if you start to lose reception you nod in the direction of your aircraft and the patch will swivel to face it. The retainer collar stops it rotating completely round and it can be a bit tricky getting the slack of the stiff coax cable right.
