I was asked how I made the scale whip antenna on RCC so I thought I post that info here as well along with a couple poser shots.

I used some very thin piano wire from the Hobby shop and a old Nitro throttle linkage dohicky, For the end to mimic a tennis ball I utilized a 1/8" plastic bead from my tackle box. I used 60/40 silver solder for the wire install and heated the tip of the wire to melt the bead on.

And a few pics from a short outing today
