Default CAT SX3 layout pictures

Hi folks,

I have built the Cat SX3 Pro. I have managed to fit everything in apart from I forgot about the receiver battery pack. I went to fit this, but I have absolutely no space to fit it. I have had to cram the esc, on/off switch, receiver and the capacitor pack on on the left had side, just forward of the motor. On the other side there are no extras, just the servo and motor. I battery just will not fit anyway to fix it on. Can you guys please give me advise and also provide pictures of your layouts with everything installed.

Much appreciated,

Chris

Well the receiver says 4.8v and each of the batteries are 7.4v. Have I missed something completely obvious??

You don't need to run an additional battery pack in an electric car the main lipo will power the lot
