You need a conductive surface for the wicks to be effective. If your 360
is E-glass they (the wicks) won't work. I have the same problem with my
Glasair III, all E-glass. I intend to spray the airplane with a
conductive gel coat and attach wicks to that. It also means that I have
to bond all control surfaces to the airframe and that my antennas will
probably have to be moved to the exterior of the aircraft.

Is there any benefit at all to installing static wicks on a Lancair 360?
If so, how best to proceed?
