In these few pictures, the fuselage is inverted. The rudder and two elevator servos are mounted up against the firewall. The oval holes provide access to the servo screws and then the screws securing the tank platform that goes in next. The throttle servo is also on this tank platform, and lines up with the throttle arm on the other side of the firewall. A battery platform sits above the engine (picture is of the fus' still inverted). It hold two 1100 mAh A-123 receiver packs, the NiMH 700 mAh gun module pack, and the ignition module. Now all the heavy stuff has been accounted for and its either in front of the firewall or immediately behind it. The receiver is mounted behind all that.
