Enerjet by Aerotech, Astrobee D Build, Part 14, Antennas


Here's one of the antenna shoes.

The metal tube is loose sliding onto the round pin.



 

Lightly crimp the antenna tube with flat pliers. Any pliers with teeth will mar the smooth tube.

Crimp a bit and check the fit. Continue until you get a friction fit on the shoe pin.





The tube should have a friction fit on the antenna shoe for display.

The tubes are removed for flight.
