Default Transponder antenna - blade vs stub monopole

Hi,

I was thinking the same thing. I believe that a ground plane would be
useless inside a carbon fiber glider. However, the same is true for any
other type of transponder antenna. They all should have a good ground
plane.

Is there a downside to mounting on a ground plane inside the fuselage
of a non-carbon glass glider?
