Checking in

Well, I have not posted for a while, and since I started this thread I thought I would check back in. There has been some amazing responses to my original message. Thanks everyone for contributing. I've been out of the micro RC for a few months working on other projects. I would never have guessed this thread would capture several hundred replies and over 25,000 views. Incredible.

I continue to use my origninal hidden antenna on the silver honda. Works just as good as the stock antenna. However, in my experiments, I have found that the best antenna I can install on any of my cars is a piano wire, or basically, as stiff metal wire. I like to put a loop at the end so no eyes get poked out!

caver, it turned out to be an extensive and long experiment! actually it's called music wire, i had to buy more for a recent project...it seems to work the best for me too. not invisible or internal but stiff, hardwired and no dragging. i posted pictures way back on page 6...i think i started in on page 3! really is amazing it has gone this far.
