Default Faast RX receiver mounting?

Can anyone offer some advice / pics on the preferred mounting method of the full range 2.4Ghz receiver antennas?

Mainly just the Futaba because of the longer aerials

The manual says 90 degrees... others say just as long as there is a significant angle.
Here is a thread where some guys are discussing it.. a little heated at a point but there are good pics.

You also have to remember that you are not flying your 450 at the same distances that you would fly a 50% gasser. As long as your antenna wires are out and have some sort of path diversity, you'll be fine.
