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. Team Thunder Tiger since 6/2005 to 12/2014 |

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.   Team Thunder Tiger since 6/2005 to 12/2014 |

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. |
