Greetings,
I asked this before, but lost the responses.
I have an LT40 ARF that I bought last year.
Work got in the way, but now am about
ready.
I need to mount the tank, battery & receiver.
The manual implies you just wrap them in foam.
The battery & receiver under the fuel tank tray
in the right corner. Says nothing about physically
securing it.
What should I do.
thanks a ton.

If it is all wrapped in foam, when it is stuck between the fuselage and the fuel tank it will just stay put. If you're still worried about it, you can glue a couple 1/4 inch sticks around it to hold it.

I have also used velcro strips to hold my goodies in place. Works very well for the electronics. I wrap the kit in foam, and CA velcro strips to the fuse and the foam, press it in and it holds very well.
