Lance,

I've used mine with the 14ch Rx set at the standard length with over 150 flights on various planes and no problems (all turbines). Also the Tam F 18 was setup with a whip antenna with no problems, but she has only had a dozen flights at best so far. The baby Boomerang was setup with a Deans antenna with about a 100 flights or so with no problems also. Last, used a Deans antenna on a turbine jetcopter by a friend of mine with about 20 or so flights with no problems also. I hope this helps.
