Yup yup.
The little RX thought flimsy looking seems fine.
Ive sent mine through crazy crashes, huge jumps and mud and its come out without a bother.

As Legacy says, glue the aerial down if you want some extra security.
Or, what I did was to tie wrap the aerial to one of my servo wires. This keeps it very secure, can be removed easy enough.

And it doesnt poke out of the shell in any way, yet range seems to be ridiculously good. I reckon I would lose sight of the car before I went out of signal range!!

Enjoy
