How reliable are these 90° angle N connector's – I mean would they not rotate unless they are fixed to a surface to prevent this and if they can rotate won’t the connection after a period of time not be secure but intermittent?

It's the same as with straight connection to antenna. Tighten properly and nothing moves.

Just yesterday i visit a mountain, that i had installed this rb Metal with angled connector, that it was tighten properly (believe me), but it was turned a little (about 30 degrees) becouse of the strong wind...

I had to tight the rb Metal too...

Groove and Metal are similar, but RB Metal has a more durable case, higher power, and better accessories. It is also more expensive compared to Groove.

I mean Metal is more expensive than Groove. The angled connector is not yet included in the brochure, because not all Metals have it, only newest shipments.

Can you start selling the angled connectors as an accessory for the Grooves.
We have to buy them anyway so it would save us dealing with multiple suppliers.

MikroTik doesn't sell directly. You should ask your distributor to start offering this accessory.
