Default Which speedo 2wd losi

Looking for a brushless speedo that will handle 6.5 to fit in my losi 22,Thats not the problem,i need one that doesn't have separate capacitors coming of the esc and is smaller than my losi xcelorin or smaller than a lrp as chassis space is tight,want to use standard lipo layout not saddles across the chassis,don't want to mount esc above lipos it just looks untidy but at the moment it's the only way.Looking at the reventon 6.5 combo at £70 but it doesn't show the capacitors if it has any,Any sensible solutions please.. thanks jon

You're going to struggle to find one without separate caps. they are an important part of the esc and cannot be left out. The caps need to be big to get the low internal resistance need to provide the filtering.

You could extend the capacitor wires and place them further from thd esc if that would help.

Thanks for the replies you guys,didn't know you could extend the capacitor wires,just purchased the 22.2 battery hinge strap to try and get neater set up,pic on horizon hobby looks like it works well so will try that.Originally had home made shelf coming of motor cover and it looked untidy..

the hinge parts from the 22 2.0 do look much better, but it is designed for saddles, The shorty is 2mm too long. I had to do some creative dremeling of the battery post. and fit it backwards, as it has an offset. It does work well once its done!
