Default Free Wraith mods

I have been looking at stuff to do to my PS Wraith since i bought it, I want to do the forward battery mod and tire foam mods, but am not able to find an easy guide to follow, the battery mod i tried to do once but i was being lazy and not disconnecting some of the wires.

if i move the ESC where do people normally mount the Switch too?

The trash can. Solder the wires together, either at the board or at the wires. The switch serves no purpose.

I cut the switch off and twisted the wires together and stuck the end in plasti dip but maslin's way does the trick also, either way does the trick. Once you install a BEC it's kinda pointless anyway, at least to me.

I keept my switch in the original position. I have the ESC standing in front of the battery with the cable running under the battery. Works great

Take the right (passenger) set out and mount the esc there. If you want a more "scale" look then make yourself a electronics box and put the esc into it..just a thought.

You really dont even need to remove the seat. I took one of the screws that held the interior floor to the frame, and ran the screw up from the bottom, through the frame and the floor and into the ESC, which put it sitting in front of the seat.

Yeah that too, but if you want a more clean look to it then you could remove the seat and save a little weight by doing it that way. I see what you're saying though, do whatever you'd like
