Default 500L stock ESC mounting.

Has anyone found a way to get this stock ESC to mount in the location that they show in the manual without using extensions for the ESC leads? I just can't seem to find a way to get it to work. This was the same thing that pissed me off about my 550. This is such an easy thing for Align to do better which is what makes it so annoying.

Totally possible.

The exact issue was addressed here: https://www.helifreak.com/showthread.php?t=672512

Photos included to show how to wire it up without using extensions.

I can't figure out how to mount this ESC (stock) it doesn't fit anyway I try. And I can't make out that picture above. Can someone show me a better way of how the wires were run from the motor to the esc. Thanks

Nevermind guys I simply drilled a neat hole in the esc tray right above the lipo release knob dead center and it now fits perfectly. I have to admit the stock esc actually looks pretty nice. I can't wait to fly this thing. Soon
