I took apart the GPS antenna which has by far the LONGEST excess of cable in the brick PowerFlarm setup. It's a wee bit trickier soldering than on the PF antennas, but if you're inclined it's not a huge task. I removed probably 6' of cable. I left the butterfly display back at the gliderport so I haven't been able to test it, but I'm confident it will work. The shield is soldered to one spot and the center conductor is soldered to a small pad on the PC board. The only trick is the careful trimming of the shield and conductor insulation to match what they did. It's also fairly easy to remove and re-use the strain relief.
