Re: pic: 694's Ultralight Control System

We've done something similar in the past, although now we typically start with getting possible layouts on a white board, then move on to marking off the area we have to work with and actually sliding the real electronics around until we like how it looks.

For example, this past year height was much more of an issue than horizontal area... we ended up forcing the mechanical team to adjust the drive motors so we could fit some jaguars under them!
