DOES IT REALY MATTER WHERE THE 401GYRO, ESC AND BEC ARE LOCATED ON THE LOGO 10? I DID BUY THE CF GYRO BRACKET. PLAN ON THE RX IN THE TOP TRAY. ESC IS IN THE CF BATTERY/FRAME IN FRONT OF THE MOTOR. IS THE BEC SIDE MOUNTED IN THE REAR QUARTER OK? A FRIEND IS JUST STARTING HIS BUILD. WE AR BOTH NUBIES. THANX, 1HOPTYCOPTER

I think the choice is up to you ultimately, I have the gyro mounted on the boom and the BEC in the frame on the left hand side. The ESC is mounted up front like most have theirs mounted, the AR7000 is mounted on the shelf. I have pics in my gallery if youre interested.

THANK YOU MICROMAN! I HAVE STUDIED YOU PHOTO'S. THEY WERE A GREAT HELP.
I WOUND UP WITH THE BEC UNDER THE MIKATO CF BATTERY TRAY AND MADE A CF BLANK FOR THE REAR QUARTER TO MOUNT MY ON/OFF SWITCH ON THE SIDE.
I MADE 3MM SELF TAPPING SCREWS WITH A DREMEL CUT OFF WHEEL TO SCREW THE SWITCH PLATE TO THE FRAME. THANX, 1HOPTYCOPTER
