I spent the day installing my FLARM brick today. The antennas were added to the side of the glare shield (Discus 2b) VIA a $1 door stop and Velcro to give it a reasonable vertical orientation without banging on my canopy. I was leaning to balsa wood, but in my small town I couldn't find any. I will spruce up the installation a bit by painting the door stops with textured black paint. Since independent analysis shows the antenna orientation only marginally affects reception and rotating the antenna in the same location does more damage than moving it off of vertical, this should be good enough. It isn't blocking my forward view like some of the "recommended" installations have shown. Of course, it is a work in progress like all other folks out there. If things go to pot, I'll make changes and let you know the results.
