Well, every timeI try to upload pics...my browser locks up and I have to close it to even see the forums again. I can try tomorrow from a different PC and see if that works, in the meantime I'll try and describe it better.

The UBEC is this one...

I dunno what the other device is. Its a small circuit board with a capacitor on it and some SMT components. Looks like there are 3 -3wire leads on it like a Y (at first I thought it was a y w/servo reverser...but Im pretty sure thats not what it is as there is no adjuster pot anywhere on it. It is still connected up in the area with the UBEC and the power switch. I cant really tell what goes to where because of the way its routed and thought I would ask about it first before I started taking it all apart, although I may very well have to take it apart to understand it...we'll see.

My best guess is that it is some type of regulator or perhaps a "kill switch". I do know that there is an plug with IGNon it that was around all the other servo wires. Speaking of "kill switches"...what would you use on a 2 battery system to kill the ignition with the radio? Like I said...Im almost finished with my cub build and I have 2 batteries and switches but no way to kill the engine unless through the switch on the fuse.

The battery is this one...

It was mounted in the rear of the plane and is quite heavy. This might explain a bit about why so much lead has been added to the firewall. But I do remember reading somewhere about a "12" rule...and thought that is probably why it is where it is. Does this 12" rule apply to 2.4 RX ? Or could I move the battery to try and help redistribute some weight and get rid of some dead weight.
