Default RE: Really confusing crash (Added pictures)

I've done all my radio setup again inside the plane. The following images show my workaround to the possible antenna blockage. I've placed half the battery under the servo tray and I made a retainer for the battery which I fixed with short screws to the servo tray. It's L shaped just in case it's not noticeable on the pictures so it will hold the battery in place which is still wrapped in latex foam. I re routed the servo cables through the hole in the servo tray and run them down the vertical face of the battery retainer. I glued in place some standoffs for the Rx so it wont crimp the cables. A rubber band holds the Rx in place. Now the important part. The antennas I routed one at each side of the fuse, still at 90° but this time one goes along the travel axis of the plane and the other one is perpendicular to that axis. Any comments or suggestions on the new setup I'll appreciate greatly. (The first picture is the old setup for comparison purposes)
