Ended up being a waste of time as the one I chose didnt give clean enough power to the Vtx

On my next rebuild it will be coming out and Ill use the space to fit the esc,s in. Brians excuse is he cant solder for s h i t and needed 5mm spacers to make some room
My battery fits in between decks so pendulum effect is not there.
Yah, when I realized, because I didn't "test fit" my components properly I'd cut all my freakin' esc lines too short, I didn't want to de solder from the boards (See: What the F happens when Noel does this) and I didn't want to add FOUR more solder joints by soldering them back. So's I ran my NEG/POS lines up the middle of the frame and made a "liquid PDB" out of 'em and just soldered them to the main trunk. I simply peel back the silicon on the rear portion and joined the back ESC's for a very UN elegant but effieicient way to tie my ESC's together!
In doing so with all the extra BIG line and heat shrink all over the place I needed room.
I have big Ham Hands and man, trying to move stuff around in that little space made me KRAZY!
Homemade 5mm shims proved the trick!
