Cramming the ESC, LiPO and motor in the back compartment space isn't easy given the short space so I gave it a look, placed everything where it could go and the problem became apparent. Leads would have to be cut as if they were not the LiPO could be in the nose so I decided to trim back the leads on the cheapest bit, the eTronix. Trimmed to a sensible length I found the battery leads were still too long so trimmed them again. I used gold connectors and heat shrink to connect and seal them.

ESCs get hot and there is no air flow in the compartment where you have mounted the ESC. It is much better to mount the ESC infront of the motor on the outside of the fuse. It will receive maximum air flow for good cooling and last a lot longer.
Just a thought.
