Lorn,

Does this advice still apply to 360s with the Mk II tail?  I was going to put static wicks on the elevators and wire the metal to ground.  Not necessary for such a small area?

Obviously, there is no where to connect them on the wings as these are all fiberglass and can't conduct a path to the static wicks.
