Barrick My Friend, Chopper here with a few suggestions.
Ragu Spaghetti Sauce, it’s great. Just kidding of course.
Attached are a couple pictures of my spaghetti bowl too.
1) You can try and relocate the ESC, see picture of mine, with it on the back skids.
You would need to lengthen the wires from the motor to do this. In the box with the Park
Brushless, there should have been 3 small lengths of black wire, about 3 inches or so long. Also
should have contained 3 bullet connectors too. You’d have to cut off the existing connectors off
of the motor. Strip the wires (more soldering, Yuk-Yuk) and add the black wires to the motor.
Don’t forget heat shrink tubing on the solder joints. Then add the bullet connectors to the end of
the black wires.
2) Twist all the wires of the servos. Makes them less tangaley(if that’s a word) and also helps
reduce interference.
3) Spiral Wrap: Good stuff, easy to put on and holds the bundle of wires together nicely
Got mine at Wal-Mart, a buck 99, for 6 feet. Most auto stores should have it too, NAPA, Auto
Zone etc.
The pictures are old, one with the brushless and one without the brushless, but the ideas are the
same for both.
Keep it rockin’, Good luck and keep us posted on this Venture.
Love ya Rick,
Dave / Choppersrule

RICK HERE :
I want to say up front that I have acquired a tremendous amount of admiration for all my Brothers ( Choppers - Arrow - Crash- Wnuk - Mike etc etc) those who have opened up and worked the innards of these BLADES. Today I , for the first time, opened and changed to a brushless motor, to an ESC, and tomorrow will also install the G-90 gyro, that you can see still in its case, in the picture. Now, what in the world do I do with these 4 miles of cables that have been added to the PRO ?
I hope my LUCK is still with me. The work is not easy, but definitely DO-ABLE..... Of course, there are VERY clear instructions in the Manual to follow...
I still follow the thread DAILY. Even from work. Now alone again, I got some modelling time back. And the best part : my Dr. has prescribed a med. name LYRICA and my constant back pain is totally in remission which means I can go through my day with ease once again. Used to be until last week, that all I could do was get home , shower and crash. Today, I worked the PRO for two hours.
YEAH...... Old age is DEFINITELY NOT FOR WIMPS OR WUSSIES....
Even JACK my feline buddy, almost took his hat off to honor my efforts !
