Re: Mounting Electronics
397 is using perforated plastic similar to McMaster Part Number 9293T47 the last two years. It is ziptied to the frame this year and forms a basket for the electronics. The whole electronics system (san's battery) is located in an volume < 14 x 15 x 13.
2337 is using 1/16 polycarb pop riveted to the frame, they are holding it under tension so no other supports are needed.
As for cross members, 8020 works pretty well if you need a very structural piece (ie to hold your frame members together) Otherwise I would suggest some angle (1/8 or 1/16 depending on your weight and what you have on hand)
I hope this helped, you may also want to take a look at some of 1323's latest robot for some inspiration on how they mount their electronics (254/968 and 233 too if I recall but I know 1323 has a nice clean picture and RC is always willing to talk about how it was done)
