So... are these a bit sh!te?  I had a minor crash into a tree at the weekend with the U.fl version fitted to my quad and broke the antenna.  After further inspection, the top section of the antenna had broken away from the bottom section (possibly at the solder joint).  Anyone else had quality issues with these?  I've got 2 of the V1s on my 5" quads and they've been fine and have probably had a bit of a beating with no issues.

V2s seem worse for strength/quality control.
Anyone had similar issues?

I hope they are not carp, I just acquired two!

Well I'll see how long the second one lasts.  Chances are it might be the same as they came as a pair.

So far, so good!

I broke my second one as well. Ive changed to an hglrc forward plus truerc singularity now.  Mmcx connector should be stronger than u.fl

Had to look up what they were!!

Thought I'd update this.
So the TrueRC AXII is a pile of sh!te.  The MMCX connector on it doesn't solidly clip in place for a start so I had to hot glue it.  The range was appalling.  I would get maybe 100m before getting breakup on the video.  Flying behind trees I would lose it completely.

So I have now bought a new TBS Triumph pro mmcx.
https://www.hobbyrc.co.uk/tbs-triumph-pro-antenna-58ghz-rhcp-mmcx-90
This is good so far.  Had a good 500m from this with HGLRC Forward at 350mw and no problems behind trees.  Design looks stronger than most and it has a section of heatshrink on the cable around the hole going into the cap.  This is good as it tends to be a weak point for most of these mini AXII style antennas.  Will see how long this one lasts. 
I notice HobbyRC are no longer selling the foxeers - I wonder why!

My two are performing well. One is on a headset that gets thrown around a bit and is "stored" in a soft bag. No Issues (yet!)  :azn
