I'm ready to attach antennae to the fuselage. GPS on top, COMs & others on bottom.
I was wondering if it is worth it to use nutplates for the bottom mounted COM antennae? I don't want to go through the effort of adding nutplates to the fuselage, but I might be willing to make a piece of scrap nutplates on it. The idea would be to then sandwich the skin between the antenna and nutplate ring.
I guess it would be worth it if the antennas come off often. I've looked around but hard to find small details like this. What have others done?
