Default Wire questions?

Can the wire on my spektrum receiver be down shorter? Not cut it, but I mean not have so much of the wire sticking up and out of the car? THewire will be inside the body and barely sticking out of the body. Would I have range problems? Would it have control problems?

Thanks

I think the Spektrum manual says so long as the antenna wire of the receiver is at least 2.5in, then you will not experience any problems.

No, I don't mean cut it. Just shorten how much wire is actually in the antenna tube. I'll post a pic in a couple minutes.
