Default Antenna

Some of the rc Airplane guys take their antenna and coil them around a straw in leave them inside the plane
Can you do this with a RC car too??

I like the idea of not have that tube sticking up in the air.

If you own a 2.4 Ghz radio than it really wouldn't matter.

It doesn't work with a 75mhz radio. I've tried a few times.
