Good day all,
As some of you know I am building an aircraft with a 4130 chassis and a carbon skin fuselage. I'm stating to plan the avionics packages, and i'm wondering about antennas. I'm trying to eliminate anything that will cause any parasitic drag, ie. Antennas. So my question is can a 406 elt antenna, gps antenna for navigation and the antenna for my WAAS signal for ADS-B be mounted "inside" the fuselage shell, mounted to the 4130 Chassis??
Now I do have the VHF antenna that can be bonded to composites without a ground plane for my VHF, and I've ordered one for the transponder.
Thanks
Mark
