I had to contact Futaba for a problem on my transmitter that was doing weird things and I got a new one. During the exchange with the tech. guys he told me that their 2.4ghz receiver are not that sensitive to vibration but they are sensitive to heat and so he said to not wrap the Rx in foam like you do with FM Rx and try to get air surrounding the Rx to keep it cool. Since, that I've change the way I fix my Rx in my airplanes and I use just a little foam attach different way depending on the airplane. For the antenna, I just use short pieces of fuel tubing that I glue on the side of the frame with a touch of thick CA. Then, I put the antenna into the tube where it stay. I try to get the last inch of the antenna out of the tubing.

You're absolutely right. For those who don't stroll by the radio forum, be aware that Futaba receivers have been known to have an issue with temperature. A lot of crashes have been attributed to heat induced faliure specially with the 6014 receiver. Make sure that if you're on FASST, you don't wrap your rx in foam. Just fasten it with velcro and try to secure it on its side rather than flat on the bottom as this allows for better heat dissipation.
