Can the ESC and receiver go next to each other?
In assembling my Cermark Cosmos I've ran into a space problem. The rudder and elevator servos can't fit side by side because then the arms would have to be very short to fit in the fuse. If I add another rail I can put one in front of the other. With that problem solved it creates another. The battery cannot slide in and out of the compartment without removing the receiver every time and even then the receiver would set up against the battery. I could locate the receiver under the battery compartment but then it would be right next to the ESC? Which would be better?

My Feedback: (5)
I try not to install any receiver (72m or 2.4g) closer than 2" to batteries,servos,ignitions,or ESC's/motors. I have a glider with very limited space and I had to install the ESC above the RX and I will get glitches every now and then especially under throttle at altitude ...never when gliding or landing . Just something I have to live with. If my only choices were the battery or the esc,I would choose the battery.
