The ESC was originally mounted tilted to the side to accomodate the position of the motor leads presented when the motor was installed, but it ended up being very helpful to make more space for the heat sink purchased from an R/C car dealer.

The inverted T-shaped thin ply ESC mount is attached to the frame with small pieces of thin black servo tape and ty-raps. The ESC is attached to that mount with the same tape and a ty-rap. An effort was made to not bend the motor wires sharply as they exit its case.

I really like this location for the UBEC! It's well protected from damage and some distance from the motor, ESC, & battery wirirng. It's held in place with two ty-raps (hole drilled through frame for front one) and a small piece of thin black servo tape.

My current installed equipment shown in these photos is:

• Kontronik FUN 600-18
• Schulze Future 45 Ho
• Airtronics 92777 FM 7ch receiver
• UBEC
• 3 x JR 3421 digital servos w/ JR HD servo arms
• Futaba GY401/S9253 combo
• Mikado 3-D paddles
• Mikado 500mm F/G blades

* I have switched to a Revolution whip antenna maounted on the rear landing gear leg, pointed to the rear. I am about to install the new JR 770 PCM receiver (it's Tiny!). NOW, I would not change a thing!

Note the small piece of plywood taped in place with thin black servo tape. It lifts the front of the battery pack higher so that longer packs will fit the canopy.
