I was thinking about the s2 layout but decided to stay old skool for now as its the micro x next weekend, s2 lay out is next once i get some more carbon fibre.

Heres a picture, sort of like a s2 layout, there are so many variations you could have 3cell each side with esc and reciver in the middle, or 6cell turned 90deg so much more weight at the back. i will have a lil play with it in club meetings. :D

once you have the motor in there the cells move forwards and there isnt much room for speedo or reciever
