IMO the calculators get you an ideal. But there are all kinds of things that get int he way of placement, like center sections, motors, frames etc. Then you build around those things.

I like this rig.

are you going to add any more to the battery box? Looks. Like the drive shaft would destroy it if the u joint broke on the upper end.
