Pike raido install using JR SYN 790rx

[scalebldr]

Just finished my PIKE Sup Installed the new JR syn 790 7 ch reciver, with a new JR 9303 raido with a Syn tx mod on ch 42. Ant is all inside, will let you know of my range testing. Hope this works. Talked with Skip M. he uses all Airtronics with no problems with inside ant

Ok, did range test with ant. inside with raido ant down and we got 180 feet before the wearding way started. Next pulled ant out of fuse got another 50 feet, or 230 feet. Next changed to standard spcm 7 ch 770 rx and got same results. Am I confused or what, can any body tell me, is 180 feet OK?
or mabe I should order a fuse from samba that has a Kevlar boom and carbon in the nose only?

180 is fine, I usually try and get about 75 feet without a glitch with the ant down.

If you've got 180 feet with solid feedback, you are good to go. I was a bit nervous reading about the Pikes giving folks problems too. Never had a glitch.

Scalebldr,
just extend the antenna 50% and let it hang out.

Wensday, got the first Flights on the Pike Sup with ant. inside, all went well!
With the help of Larry Jolly the pike flue great! with no range problems. Started out with hand launches, then bunge launches. Conditions were hot but a breze filled in and good thermal conditions. All seems to be working fine.
