it makes a huge difference, when you keep the cog low. for example, with my last truggy conversion, I mounted the esc on the steering servo, like I had it in the buggy. but it didn't feel good, especially flying was bad, so I moved the esc right onto the chassis, behind the batteries (I have a different setup, batteries left, motor right). much better. drives and jumps more stable.

In an other truggy, I had the esc right behind the steering servo (pretty narrow), but great handling.

the alloy of the mount seems a bit thin, like that it may cause some flex. that causes wear on the pinion. the mount should be mounted on the center diff and on the chassis (alloy angle bracket). still, I like your self made stuff, by the way!!

left/right balance is important too, but low cog is more important I think.
