I sell an antenna with a hinge and a cat. Throw the cat and watch (a cat always comes down feet first) then adjust the antenna.

I tried the "hinge and cat kit" and found it to have serious flaws. The hinge was loose so the antenna flops around in turbulence. Not being a helicopter pilot, I found it difficult to stay in a tight thermal while using stick and rudder trying to keep the antenna up straight. The cat didn't help much, the one I received was freeze dried with a label clearly stating "Best Use Before Sept. 2008" Richard, you need to rotate stock.
