Just unpacked my phantom 3 pro, and the left antenna is very loose compared to the right one.

it really doesn't stay in position - almost falling from side to side.

Has any else noticed this ?

I'm worried it maybe disconnected inside the controller.

Has anyone opened the controller ? If so - how easy is it, and is there something that can be tightened ?

My left one is more loose than the right too, although it does hold it's position if I don't move about too quickly.

Would not recommend opening the controller as it will void the warranty.

The left one one my controller is looser then the right as well.  Doesn't seem to be an issue as it stays in position so I haven't worried about it.

The Operator in the factory working on the left antenna needs a poke in the ribs.  Wake up!

Hey, I have the handle screws really loose as well, has someone experienced the same? Actually one of the screws has fallen inside the radio and don't know what to do, HELP!!! I don't know if I should open the radio and do it myself... I'm in Colombia and it is a bit hard to send it all the way to the states.

The antenna are held in with plastic clips. They literally just snap in. However you can't take them out without opening the controller and using a small pair of needle nose to compress the little plastic fitting. I'd say if it stays where you put it and there is no lack of performance it's not an issue.
