Default Gen1 micro-t

Ok, since I'm purchasing lipo, the 10259kv Xceleron brushless motor and esc for my micro-t, I have a spare servo, tx, and mainboard.
This is a project fully customized, a lot like Sweed's. Im not trying to copy Sweed, but I jsut happen to have these parts as spares, and a spare gen1 chassis. After seeing his, I thought I could make a hobby-grade car out of spare parts.
-I will use stock Micro-T EP-New AM Superflex 18g wires for motor, Dean harness for LiPo(all soldering done by me)
-Stock Losi TX
-A few GPM Parts: front knuckles, rear diff gearbox
This is going to be RWD, since the AWD Kit is too expensive at XI.
I just need to find a way how to set up the servo, but tomorrow I will use Sweed's method by stacking styrene/servo tape. That's my only issue, other than that, I jsut need to order GPM parts, Deans wires(12g), and LiPo cells.
Here are my mock-up pics, will do more tomorrow.
I will finish most of this, and I will ACTUALLY progress due to my 2-week Xmas vacation.
Here are my pics:







Good day to all.
-BLT.

UPDATE:
I now know how I will mount the LiPos.
So, on top of the LiPo, the very top, I will place 2 strips of velcro.
I will mount the Micro-T board with stick-tape on a piece of plastic, then velcro the bottom of the plastic.
This will enable me to mount the board, and remove it aswell when I charge my LiPos.

UPDATE:
I DID A LOT OF WORK, CHECK IT OUT!!









ENJOY.
