RE: Metallic Paint and Radio Interference
Thank You.
Antenna is about 75% inside, with only 25% exiting aft of the cockpit. The radio frequency is 6 meters (50 MHz). If there was to be a problem, I would have expected a much shortened range, (especially off the nose or tail) but it flew as long as I could see it. I do understand that being a longer wavelength that the 72, results may be slightly different, but I would expect the difference between the two frequencies to be negligable(sp). Perhaps one caveat, is the monokote is put on in panels, not one continuous sheet, but again, at these frequencies, I would not expect the RF to notice that.
