Building my first heli and I see where the recommended placement of the ESC is but wonder about the short motor leads and the ability to easily unplug the esc if I need to work on the heli. looks like you just plug the ESC in and strap it down. I guess I could just as well loosen the motor and disengage the pinion from the drive gear instead of unplugging the ESC but I was wondering what you guys do. The few local guys here mount the ESC on the side of the frame just about under the main shaft and I was going to go that route but the balance of he heli is way off if I do that. I'd have to add about six ounces to the canopy to get the balance right. I'm sure the heli would be just fine with the added weight but I'd rather not add the weight. Wondering if anyone has pictures of their installation.
Thanks
