Default Trex 550 question

What position are you guys mounting the carbon fiber mount plate in - the upper or lower position, and why? I've thought about this and my reasoning for maybe putting it in the lower position would be to have a place to mount the rx. I figured this would be safer than mounting the rx. to the bottom plate in case of a crash.
I'm also trying to determine the best position to mount the flybarless control unit. Where have you guys determined is the best place for it? I wanted to put it up close to the gyro unit but the leads wouldn't reach to the bottom of the heli where I want to mount the rx.
Thanks.
