I dont know what wire you are talking about, if it is the Rx Antenne, you need to get two of these and replace it, that simple

In ct6b if you have that broken piece of wire just cut it neatly and fix re solder it there will be 2 soldering points if you want will sent you a picture.. I done this several times without any issues...
The wire gusty sir suggested can also be used(only one piece needed for flysky receiver)

Please use the antenna wire suggested by Gusty or any other similar antenna wire.

However care should be taken to maintain same length of the coaxial RF cable and the the radiating section as the original antenna cable of the receiver ( referred lengths shown in the picture attached).

the central conductor forms the radiating part which you need to clip to the required length after exposing the RF outer shield conductor. After forming the RF radiating end the other end which is required to be soldered to the Receiver, expose only 2mm of middle conductor from the RF shield by bunching up of the RF outer conductor shield without cutting it. Further remove only 1 mm of the insulation from the middle conductor and now solder the middle exposed conductor to the RF output point as shown in picture and the RF outer shield to the ground of the receiver as shown in picture.

PS : Pictures posted are for reference only and not of the the FS-CT6B Receiver.

Thanks for the reply.. Would be awesome to have a pic of the CT6B though, as the connections have no labels :(

If you can post pictures of the Receiver board please.  :)

Edit Got one downloaded posted for reference.

Since the original radiating end is a dipole you can leave the outer RF shield conductor bunched up separately exactly the same length of the radiating middle conductor insulated with a heat shrink wrap, the two separate conductors forming a 'V' 90 degrees to 130 degrees.

broken antenna... many people posted about this.
Guys, be careful while mounting the receivers on your models... ;)

Hehe, i'm sorry for the confusion. I meant my *radio* antenna wire is broken, not the receiver's. Anyone has a picture on how the wire is soldered? I made the mistake of unsoldering without noticing where the mesh and internal wire were attached :(

Can someone maybe take a picture of the inside connection like this one so i have a reference? Thanks again!

Center conductor to the RF output pad in middle and outer RF Shield  Conductor to the Ground
