Fabricated a ply wood mount for the ESC.

ESC fastenned to the ply wood mount.

Fabricated a 3rd fastening point. Opt to put the battery in the passenger cabin vice the original location inside the fuselage. Sacrificed asthetics for CG balance. Original battery location would have required 2 pounds of nose weights.

Fabricated a battery tray to mount in the passenger cabin. Requires 1 screw to secure the battery.

How about mounting your batteries under the cabin floor? That way you don’t have to give up your cabin details. Just like this picture.

Hi It1pwr, I did consider that location you outlined in red. Not much wiggle room. I could have tested the batteries lengthwise verses crosswise.

The other issue I had that was more work than being in /out was unscrewing the 2 bolts then screwing them back just to put batteries in. Not to mention damaging the cockpit fuse.

The 2 AS350’s I built had quite a few scale details in the cockpit and I never used the socket head screws to secure the nose, I used the magnets that came already pre-installed and they were plenty strong. I never had a problem with the nose coming loose.
