Fred, I assume you may be asking about the carbon airframe (IV).
Regardless, I have had very good results with a WX500 in my E-Glass 360.  I
mounted the antenna in the very rear of the tail cone, beneath a ~10" x 12"
ground plane (that curved around the sides somewhat).  The antenna was
between the ground plane and the skin.  The processor was mounted behind th=
e
rear bulkhead.   I get very little random noise and the display is
surprisingly accurate, agreeing relatively well with my XM weather.  The
WX500 is more sensitive and realtime, with the XM obviously the better long
range information.
