Looks like chage/switch is OK. Important things to remember: Non-interference and if possible put holes in plane on non-exhaust side to keep wood from being contaminated.
Tank - wrap in foam until a snug but not necessarily rock tight fit. Want foam to absorb vibration to minimize foaming of fuel.
RX-Wrap in baggie if where fuel could get on it, otherwise just wrap in foam. Multiple layers of foam can be used to "wedge" the RX in place so it won't move.
Battery - Same as RX.
If battery and RX are in same place they can be wrapped together. Use 6 inch extension for ailerons so you won't need to constantly access RX to plug things in.

Cool thanks Bruce. I will take a pic tomorrow and show you what I did. I finally finished the plane. Now I have to figure out the CG , centering the wing and set the throws and I am done. Minus breaking in the engine.
