Default HAVE YOU CONVERTED PIPED PATTERN PLANE TO SPEKTRUM/JR?????

I was considering putting a JR R921(2.4Ghz) receiver in my T2A MKII to replace the Futaba 127DF(72Mhz) receiver. The tuned pipe runs just above the receivers. The most open area I can find to mount the satellite receiver is just aft of the servos. This will place it between the tuned pipe on top of the fuse and and the metal pushrods going to the elev/rud. Has anyone installed the 2.4Ghz Spektrum/JR receivers in an installation like this and flown it? I would like to change this plane over to the 2.4Ghz JR system, but the antennas will be awfully close to a lot of metal. Also, not shown in the photos, there is a metal cable going to the nose wheel steering on one side of the fuse and a metal control cable to the throttle on the opposite side of the fuse.
