Re: [RCSE] Antenna Wire

[Simon Van Leeuwen]

I think what the Futaba service rep meant was to utilize lead material 
that has the highest strand count you can find. This, in an effort to 
increase mechanical integrity. I don't think he meant to say use the 
finest single strand wire...

I was told by Futaba service to use the finest (smallest diameter) wire 
possible.  For several years I have successfully substituted very fine 
music wire in antennas.   I purchased the wire in 36 in. lengths from my 
local hobby shop.  I used the finest wire that would not flop around 
when extended from the rear of the plane.
