Default RE: Sickle (V-2)

Am I going to have any problems with reception when using a 7-channel FASST receiver?? Any blind spots caused by signal shadowing due to CF? Seems I read about this somewhere... just checking again.

Working on the mid-fuse deck today. I thought I would make it a full 12 inches long (the dimensions of my CF stock) but there's no way it could be finagled into position because of the wing tube. So I kept trimming a bit off my pattern until it fit in without bending. Looks like approximately 9-1/2" with plenty of room behind the wing tube for the rudder servo (but close to the wing tube to achieve CG... hopefully) and room in front for the Rx and battery.
