a couple of the older flyers at my club have mightily denounced antennae wires inside the fuse. i am glad to see others using this method even if some leave the wire still folded with a twist tie.[sm=what_smile.gif]

I’ve been putting my antennas inside my fuselages for decades and haven’t had any problems yet. I expect certain types of metallic coverings and paint could be a problem but that would be expected. One thing that people may not think about is that the antenna is pretty well protected when it is inside the fuselage compared to when it is flopping around on the outside.
