I am assembling my first glow trainer - a Sig Kadet LT-40. This trainer comes highly recommended at the club I am joining. I am about ready to start assembling the servos, RX, battery and have three questions (I am sure they are dumb questions):

1. The directions for installing the battery pack states: "Wrap the battery pack with a single layer of 1/2" thick soft foam rubber to insulate it from engine vibration and shock. Use tape or rubber banks to hold the foam around the battery. Install the wrapped battery pack inside the nose of the model, under the fuel tank floor, in the position shown on the plan (fuselage side view). Try to keep the battery pack as far to the right side of the fuselage as possible to avoid interfering with the nose gear pushrod." Nothing in these instructions say how you are supposed to attach the battery pack to the airplane. Do you just lay it up in the compartment? That seems risky - what if the battery pack shifts in flight - won't that cause the COG to shift also? [&o] Is there some way I can semi-permanently attach the battery pack to the plane?

2. The directions for installing the receiver state: "Install the wrapped receiver inside the nose of the model, right behind the battery pack. . . . If the receiver seems loose in the nose of the model, pack additional pieces of foam rubber around it to make sure it cannot move around in flight." Once again, is there some way I can semi-permanently attach the receiver to the plane? I thought about cutting a hatch in the bottom of the fuselage and mounting the battery and receiver on the hatch door using velcro strips to hold them in place.

3. I am going to charge the battery pack through the switch. How do you get to the charging connection which is attached to the switch. Do you have to take off the wing each time you want to charge the battery?

Thanks for the help.
