Default 6014FS - installation

Hi ....
I have the 6014FS Rx with the receiver antennas inside the fuselage being in close
to a big plate of pc board material (5,1"x 8,6") with the copper on it.
No power...just the material.
Do you think I will have any problems ?

Thanks in advance

At least one of the receiver antennas need to "see" the transmitter at all times.  If the copper plate block them, then you have a setup for trouble.

Thanks , Bax....
If I remove the copper from the pcb with the Etching method , then the pcb material
will continue to affect my Rx , or it will be OK ??

It's the metal that can cause the problem.  Anything that's electrically conductive.  Just the PC board material (resin or fiberglass) won't affect the signals.
