With battery wire routing, I noticed at the EC Robert had drilled a hole in his top deck to keep the battery wire away from the servo horn, did not notice it at first, then wondered why, then after building mine realized why he may have done it.

knowing how much modding i needed to do to fit my low profile ko servo, i have no clue how RP installed his servo like he did
is the cable coming out from the servo from the steering servo!? if so that's a reeealy bent servo wire right there

Got to admit I'm a tiny bit worried about a good fit with the LP servos, with me wondering if I maybe should have ordered some of the regulars, but the LP's are so nice and compact now, off the top as well as the bottom case, hard not to want to use them, and keeps weight in more on the steering and creates some wire, weight and maybe transponder room behind the throttle servo.
Really though I did look at the Savox LP in my electric, and you can fold the lead basicly flat against the case and it does not seem to strain the wire, or bother the grommet much, and I know the Savox come up a shortish in length, so pushing the servos against one end of the mounts may create just enough of the room you need for the wire.
But I am tempted to grind a hole like Robert did, seems a nice place to route the battery wire to me.
