What to do? What to do?

Have you ever decided on something ordered parts and then changed your mind? My indecisiveness has brought me to this point. What's your opinion on the following chassis layouts.

Idea #1



This one is pretty straight foward. Batteries one side, motor the other. Cog is just slightly to the battery side and I can keep the 6s as one whole pack giving the option of 5s capability. I will need a custom shaft for this. Motor faces foward too.

#2



This has symetry, I like symetry but it means I have to split my 6s down to 3s. Making a chassis/bracing around this will be easy and it all fits neatly in the existing footprint. I will need a custom shaft for this too.

#3



This one I guess is a standard truggy setup. Batteries next to the diff, pushing the motor further out and balancing the chassis better. I can make this work with available shafts. Downside is the motor faces backwards and it will be the hardest to make chassis/bracing around it. This one will be easiest to fit the steering servo.

What do you think? What would your decision be? Or suggestions?
