antenna placement question
I am building a Kadet LT-40. Is there anything wrong with trailing the receiver antenna along the inside of the fuselage to the rear end?

..........provided it stays that way & doesn't coil up in flight - so it needs to be well secured, & safe from moving parts.
Are there any metal or conductive ( ie carbon fibre ) parts near the antena as these could obscure the transmitter signal..

The only metal in the rear of the fuselage is the short piece of threaded wire that connects the nylon pushrods to the rudder and elevator cleavises. These do not touch the antenna. Okay?
