Q: Any guidelines for mounting the receiver?
A: Just mount the main portion of the receiver exactly as you would a conventional 72MHz receiver in your airplane or heli but leave the antennas facing outward. The external receiver antennas should be mounted at least two inches from the main receiver antennas. Ideally the two receiver antenna arrays will be oriented 90 degrees to each other. In an airplane, the side of the fuselage or in the turtle deck is perfect for mounting the external receiver. For helis, the side of the radio tray is a good spot for the external receiver. Servo tape works great for holding the external antenna in place.
O.K. this is confusing. Are they saying that one, or both, of the antennas need to be mounted outside the aircraft?
