Antenna inside or out ??
I noticed on their website that the Hobby Lobby guys were flying their P-51 without any of the antenna outside of the airplane. http://www.hobby-lobby.com/field_p51marie.htm
I like the cleaner lines, and was wondering if anyone else has flown with the antenna completely inside the plane and if they ever ran into any problems.
Thanks

They are probably using a Lightenna mounted inside the fuse. There are a number of this type of antenna on the market. You simply cut off the stock antenna and solder the replacement on. Do a complete range check before flying.

I wound up taking this recommendation. Works well.
