The 20/30 amp fuses are hard to get to and see. Move the radio up a lot, or somewhere else.

Considering that the electronics will change next year, can you get models of them and try fitting them into your base instead? That'll be more valuable (and they are smaller!)
Thank you for the feedback. I will work on moving the wheels out more, it will definitely help with getting more space inside the frame. Standing the battery upright was done at first and i simply forgot about it, that will for sure be done. As far as cadding in the new electronics goes i have done that and its simply a seperate render. After putting those in there is alot more space also considering the new speed controllers are stackable. Anything more advise will be highly appreciated. Also the reason for using old electronics is this will possibly be used as a practice run for our first WCD, i dont beleive we will be buying the new control system for it.
