    TS2 conversions?

    How have people built up the battery and ESC box on the TS2. I am curious how others have done it before I start.

        you could use the balsa to make the pattern of the side of the box (trial and error)

            TS-2 Build

            Here's how I did my box. Most I've seen put the servo in front; I like mine in back to simplify linkage. Also, I made mounts for the box so that it's easily removeable and transfers perfectly between my 2 TS-2 hulls. [ Pix spread over successive posts]

                  My little friend !

                  Andy, do seriously consider one of these little gems : IIRC @ $ 110 bucks at Home Depot & worth every penny, indespensible when building boxes from scratch. [Ask Darin !]
