I'd like to determine how much coax to order and have given thought to getting a spool if the lengths add up to a significant amount:
1) Can someone give me a good length for coax going out to the wing tip in a 10 (Archer antenna), allowing a little extra for waste?
2) Also, would you recommend purchasing/installing heated pitot and/or AP servos before closing up the wing bottom skins (mast already in)? I'd like to wait as long as possible, but don't want to paint myself into a corner.
3) Is RG-400 coax really so much better than the RG-58? My coax will be in a conduit so I'm not too worried about wear, but there will also be lighting wires in there with the coax (LEDs)...
Thanks for the help guys.
