Default Repair Antenna

I have a reciever that has some of the plastic torn off so the wire is exposed but not damaged. Can a little bit of heat shrink tubing fix this without causing any interferance?

Yes, also you can use liquid electrical tape. I have used both to do that. i also use a red or green color liquid tape on the end of my antenna's so i know at a glance if the antenna has been shortened by acident. If the color is gone do not fly untill you check the length...
