thanks you... espeically for the criticism.
neil - Firstly i orginally had the ESC mounted above the batteries... but due to my new batteries being so large i had to move them forward....Here is a pic of where it was mounted... I cant mount it too far forward otherwise i wont be able to connect the batteries, and the second brake servo gets in the way...
I have now moved it furthur back under the roll bar and it also sits lower in the chassis. I was never happy with it mounted to high up
I moved it back yesterday from its most recent position. I am going to have to sand the spur gear shroud a little so it sits nicely.
I feel much better with it sitting there.... Where i had drilled two holes, i have now put a brace along that point just to strengthen everything up a little.
Regards to the shrink tubing... i will do that, i just havent got large enough tubing at the moment.
And neil i am live in London UK....
RTOC thanks a lot man! - This is my first brushless truck... i WAS a nitro person, but they just do not compare do they!!!! I know how dangerous all these lipos can be and how fragile these ESCs are.... so in all honesty i knew i could fit them like your diagram shows but i didnt want to risk blowing anything.... If that is the case... it means one less LEAD
Also if i was going to use one Single 5s Battery.... Would i just connect one red connector to one side of the ESC and black connector to the other????
Thanks a lot for the help and pointing these things out!
