Relocating the electronics?
 

Hello.
Now that I've fixed my esc issues, I can finally install the interior to my wraith.
I thought about placing the esc to the front, where the radiobox used to be, the battery to the front (behind the dash) and my radiobox to the rear end.
I have some problems with the radiobox and the battery placement, does anyone have some tips for me, or pictures from their electronics?

This will be a good start. Wraith Electronics Tray ditched the box and cut the battery tray down. It mounts perfect with the tray mount.

Sadly, I don't think the tray is an option, since the shipping would cost 40 dollars to Finland :cry:
Any ideas how the battery tray could be mounted without the electronics tray thingy?

Ouch! You could make a tray from styrene. They (CI) use the mount holes for the box and turned on it's side the battery tray mounting hole lines up just right. But it needs a little more support than the one screw. I don't think you would be able to use a heavy battery.

I'll see what I can do next weekend, when I'll install the interior.
Any ideas on the rear radio box?

Here it is almost empty.

Anyone got pics how the radio box would be mounted in the rear, or how to esc would be mounted behind the seats?

This is how I did mine. I used an electronics box from radio shack.

the batt will stay in the spot behind the dash without any mounts. a standard size 2 cell fits nice and tight and the hood holds it from coming out. I had mine that way for over a month.

but honestly, I didn't see the big differance moving the batt up front. if u have enuf weight in the frt wheels, it crawls just fine in the stock location. I moved all my stuff back to factory locations. it was more of a hastle than what it was worth.

I Moved my esc to the rear and a 2s 2200 fits in the spot where the esc was before. I haven't moved to radio box yet, but will soon. I want to close off the rear with a deck lid, so I can put scale accessories on there. The only thing I had to do was cut a small portion if the radio box lid, so it was flush with the bottom. I also routed the switch to the driver side and attached it to the battery tray. No pics at the moment but I can snap a few if you like.

No to sound like a jerk but do a search there is basically the same thread bout two pages back "thumbsup"

Yeah.. I tried that.. but somehow I failed at such a simple task.
I was hoping someone would have done the linking for me :lmao:

Any pictures would be nice, since I'm still quite confused about how am I supposed to do this.
