A lot of guys run their antenna down a length of straight plastic tubing. It keeps it nice and straight and out of harms way. The trouble is sometims getting the wire down that tube. It takes me longer to get the wire down the tube that any of the rest of the project. I ended up using heavy button thread and CA it end to end with the antenna wire then push the button thread throught. It sometimes takes three or more trys to get the wire in place.

This issue, along with the plugging and unplugging of the servos and battery makes for a lot of wear and tear on the receiver pins. I would rank a receiver swap as one of the last things I want to do. I would rather pull and rebuild a fuel tank than swap a receiver.
