ArduCopter 3D Closeup

yep that's the whole idea. and you can also rotate them all with 45 deg steps. ESCs fits nicely on top of upper main frame next to the power distro PCB. It is also possible to mount ESC in way that two are above and two are below main frame, this way cabling is also looks less messy. Like on this pic on left and right hand side under main frame. Additional carrier boards can be mounted on top to protect electronics if user don't want to use any plastic cover.

Also mounting things to carrier is rather easy, even when using bolts and nuts. Holes are 3mm. And on carrier board there is also 2 x 4 mm holes so people can stick their antenna tube easily on that. :)

Nice, man! The carrier design is very useful. We can use bolts and nuts or velcro strips and other resources to hold tings on place... Congrats!
