Forgot to add that i have settled on a battery for this project. I have 9 2500 18c cells, that will be made into 1 4s pack and 1 5s pack. I will most likely use a receiver pack, as I do not have a bec that can handle 9s input. I may hook up a bec to the balance tap of the 5s pack, but that may cause uneven discharge of the cells. I will cross that bridge later.

Since the motor will be mounted near the botton of the tvp, I will make an esc mount to place the esc above the motor, on the top of the tvps. The Great Planes esc is flat and has a heatsink, so I will put it with the heatsink facing up, in the airstream above the tranny. I will try it without a fan and see how it does.

The esc and rec pack will go in the front servo tray, and I will most likely leave the lid off, as I do not have one. If the lhs has one I may buy it. I usually run on grass and the road, so stuff does not get that dirty.
