Lastly to finish out the engine compartment area.

I first laid in some 1/16" scrap into the chin areas by first wetting them with windex to get them to shape to the inside of the fuse. Then I made a horizontal brace that I attatched a retaining box for my esc. As you can see, I've mounted the power switch in another horizontal brace within the hatch area. You can also see the two frount washers for the rare earth magnets I'm using to hold down the hatch.

Connected the engine to the esc. The "box" I've made to hold the esc will help with the cooling I hope, and help keep everything tidy within the fuse. This will also help define an area for the battery after the wing is set.

I'm now ready to mount the wing.
