    Rollmast

    Is there a minimum height for the rollmast?

    I don't think there is an official limit as such, but we have a club rule that it should be at least 150mm from the ground as otherwise they tend to dig into and damage the carpet. Clubs tend to get a bit unhappy if that happens

    I use heatshrink to attach the wire up as far as it needs to go. That way you don't have to rely on the roll mast cap to keep the wire on. Then I glue the cap on.

    Jason Butterfield and I route the Spektrum aerial over the top of the servo - works fine!

    me too, but I use black tape rather than a heavy clip like in the pic of Jason's car

    Pic working fine here but Peter has pointed you to the same one, so as long as you can see it it's fine.
