RE: Attaching antenna to plane
Hi William,
I usually do as JimO suggests. However on some models I have run the antenna out through the dorsal surface and attached it to the tail wheel bracket with a rubber band. Another method that works really well on larger models is to run the anttenna through a drinking straw inside the model. I use a length of "weed whacker cord" or stiff mono fishing trace to thread the antenna through the straw.
Good Luck,
Colin
