OK guys ...I`m almost there. Nose thingy is mounted

.
Do I have to put the RX and Batt in a plastic container, .Old fuel tank or can I just wrap and rubber band in foam rubber?
Insulator by trade so I have pleantey of Amor Flex.
The stock rods that came with this bird are wood dowels. with push rod wire and Z bends for the servo horn mounting. I dont want to tear it apart as far more than I have already done.
Seems to work fine.
Any thoughts ?
Thanks.
