Here is the rest of it, I had too many pictures for one post.

So once I finished playing with mounting the 1717 in there I went ahead and dropped the Castle 2200 in it that I am going to be running. I look's soo much smaller in there.

Here is the general mock-up so I could find where I needed to drill the holes for the battery tray.

And here are a few pictures of the final lay-out with the battery in it.

Well I took it out for a run today and didn't run it long, The BEC in the ESC didn't like trying to power the Solar D772 Servo so I wired up my Castle BEC in the truck tonight, I've never found a ESC with a built in BEC that can power this servo. I tried using it with a Mamba Max Pro in my Wraith one time and the Wraith wouldn't even move.

Here is a little video from today, Please ignore the hideous Charger body, I ordered my paint's last night to paint the Bulldog body and didn't want to run it without the body painted so "I chopped up an old Charger body that I had gotten with a Revo a long time ago.
