Default SPEKTRUM 2.4 ANTENNA ORIENTATION

Would it be acceptable to orientate the receivers like thus, on the same side of the fuse?

Default RE: SPEKTRUM 2.4 ANTENNA ORIENTATION

Sure! I have used that exact same orientation on a couple of my planes.

I do try to get as much separation between the antennas as I can. In fact, I usually buy an extension that allows me to get a LOT of separation. That makes it easier to mount, as well as having a better link (or so I have read). I have NEVER had a problem with any of my JR or Spektrum SS - rx or trx.

One of these,

or this,

Makes the installation even more flexible.
Mated to a servo extension of the desired length and you are home free.

Want to put a Satellite in a wing tip this allows for it.

I am surprised it is not more commonly known.
