Anyway, if theres enough space under the shell, then put the rx ontop of the center diff, then put the esc where the rx was. If theres a enough space that is- you will want ot be very mindful of all the little wires and leads concidering the spur and pinion are right underneath- use zipties and bases to route wires & bundle up excess.

that's what i would do.
They say a good mechanic only needs 2 tools - WD40 & Duct tape. If it moves, and its not supposed to, duct tape. If it doesn't move, and its supposed to, WD40.
Looking quickly at the pics, I would consider making a carbon fiber part to replace that Z shaped part on top of the CD. Basically copy that Z shape but extend the rear portion with a small platform to put the ESC on it and the use of the Traxxas MMM ESC mount would secure it firmly (but I really don't know if the body has enough room to do that). I would also consider running 5.5 mm bullets because with those, there's only a red and a black wire coming out of the ESC instead of a red, a black and a third wire to bring them together. Also the red and black wires of the batteries are separate so it is a lot easier to route the wires accordingly so that everything tucks neatly underneath the body.
No brain, no headaches.
