I got all of the parts for the Alien-X quad except for the motors. I didn't want to loose all the parts (and I got excited); so I put it together. I forgot to get a power distribution board, so I made a wire harness. The harness probably could be neater but what do you guy's think. I used T plugs to go between the harness and the esc's. While some may frown on this, the quad is mainly for video, so I don't think that they are going to fall out. And the harness is typed in quite well, so theres no where for the wire to go.

 

But the big thing that I wanted to share is the way I mounted the battery. Velcro straps weren't holding the battery very well, so I got some releasable zip ties. These have flaps that allow you to release and reuse the zip tie. They held the battery very well. If they were a bit smaller, I think that they would be perfect for holding batteries in quads.
