Default Burrito receiver,battery installation

I have a Burrito framed and almost ready to cover. I have built lots of RC planes but this is my 1st RC profile. I don't see how I should install the stuff that usually sits inside the fuse - battery, tank, receiver. The plans describe how to install the servos and control rods. I can't even find a good picture. 99% of the pictures of profile planes are taken from the 'good side', the tank etc is on the other side. Any pics??

Here's a pic of the radio compartment. The rx is in the leading edge and the battery is in the trailing edge... Adjust to suite your tastes as far as CG is concerned.

Here's a fuel tank install on my Taco... I do it the same way on the Burrito. I just drill a 3/32 hole thru the fuse above and below the fuel tank. Then I take some left over control rod and bend a hook in one end, then insert it in the hole and bend an "L". Just put the tank between the hooks with a little foam underneath and attach it with a rubber band.
