IDIOT!

Just kidding. So long as your antena wire is routed such that it streatches out from the receiver without interfering with moving parts you should be fine. I bet you will find the plane flies easier than your p-51. Use low rates! It will be more responsive than your p-51. I also recomend the use of exponential on the elevator and ailerons. While I have never flown one of these I have flown other 3D planes such as the Funtana 40s and X100. You will enjoy it and after you start to get used to it don't be afraid to play with the CG a little at a time.
