I'll bite Bob....
    What defines a real pattern pilot?

  Does this all mean that "real pattern pilots" DON'T run their antenna outside, connected someplace with a rubber band?

    Jon you would be fine with the set-up you want to use. What I use is stirrer straw material from the local coffee shop, at around
    1/8" OD. I place about 5 straws on a rod, end to end, and tape the joints. Then I route the straw in a convenient location. The important thing to remember is the feeding of the antenna when you are installing the radio.

      Hi all, What is the best way to run the receiver antenna on a composite
      fuse pattern plane? I am building a Temptation, I`m thinking of putting
      the antenna in a tube inside the fuse. Will this work or will it create
      radio reception problems? Any other ideas? Thanks Jon Wise
