Eventually as the build progresses and more weight is added to the front half I may have to draw the front pair of batteries rearwards as pictured.
For the moment they are OK as originally designed and I have had to add a roll of lead to the stern to the value of 941grams. The rest of the build will account for a good half of that so the lead will be customised to suit.
Cable ties to help extraction
The interior Unit available from Chris Scott to order would likely mean I would have to run on just two batteries but I would probably only use it for display purposes as it is easy to fit and remove
Chris has just informed me that a ready to run MBD of his build comes in at 9.4kg
