Default Okay, now what?

Got my plane last night.
Sig Midstar .40
OS .40 LA w/10x6 prop
Futaba S3004 servos

Also got a radio for it.
JR Quattro lite

First off: Anybody got any pictures of how the Rx and Rx battery should be mounted in the fuse? I know I'm supposed to get some foam and wrap them in it, but do they just hang loose in there or is there some way I should mount them.

As for a field box, I'm thinking of just getting this: http://www2.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...4&I=LXL419&P=K
Any opinions on it?

Also, along with the plane, I got a copy of Real Flight G2. We're not gonna discuss how late I was up last night playing with that. Let's just suffice it to say I can do touch and goes all day long with it and some simple tricks, all with the milder planes. The helicopters are a nightmare though!

I'm not in any hurry to get the stuff listed above. It'll be another week, maybe two before I'll try the real plane. (with somebody to help me of course)

To add insult to injury, I've been sick for the last three days and tomorrow's the 27th birthday. Hence the plane. I'm about as excited as anybody with a fever of 102 can be.
