For example you have to tip you battery solder tabs off to the sides of your cells at a 45 deg angle because if they point straight up and you solder your esc wires the body wont come all the way down...I'n not kidding .

I had to heat up my body over the Rx and push up a little swell to allow clearance for the servo, esc, personal wires to exit the top of my Airtronics Micro 2ch Rx. If I didn't do that it pushed my body up over the Rx.

Look at the pic of my car's chassis a page or two back to get an idea how low the body must sit.
It's a damn good looking body, doesnt work well on carpet though?
