  That sounds like it would have a lot of benefits. There is a good size gap
where the gear goes under the canard bulkhead, and the cutout also extends
aft of the bulkhead. You might need a panel inside the console aft of the
joystick to seal that all off. My battery box extends into the door cutout
area so you might want to decide on what you'll be using for battery
dimensions and placement.   -Bill
