I’ve never had an issue, but then I only fly 4s so the spikes would be less.
Instead of the clear heat shrink I 3D print these:
makes for a much cleaner looking build 
I did have to play with the height of the STL to get them flush.

I turned the stack 180 degrees and now I don’t like the battery leads running back close to the props 
I am starting to dislike this frame lol
I’ll have to watch more build videos
May be worth having a look at builds with similar frames as yours for inspiration - https://rotorbuilds.com/ is a good site for that
Awesome thanks
Not to any extent to worth considering.
I have started remote mounting them ( on wires ) and stashing them behind the camera where there is spare room.

Was looking at your frame any chance post a link.
Also anyone what’s the best place to find printable parts or do you all design your own.
top pic is an AOS 7 V2 - now discontinued but replaced with a near identical AOS 7 V5 (better camera cage). I cannot find it on any European website though - seems only CNC Drone (Canada) is proposing them…

you likely find what you need on there
cheers will have a look on both
Someone will kill you. 
Nice bit of Yellow.

Looking forward to seeing this fly.

Question lost model buzzer do you have to buy the wire separate with plug cheers
Buzzers usually come with wires/plugs (at least the Vifly do)
If you plan to add a GPS - one thing to consider alongside choosing a buzzer model is how you will power the GPS unit without the VTX - the GPS unit needs 30-45s to boot up and get enough sats - a VTX could overheat in this amount of time (no airflow to cool it down)
Some FC’s have a ‘Pit mode’ to allow for that (you can use a radio switch to turn on/off your vtx)
An alternative is to use the Vifly GPS Mate - a buzzer that doubles up as a GPS only battery (you switch on the GPS Mate - wait 45s then plug in the main battery)
Other alternatives:
You could use a ‘Real pit’ board - tiny board you wire between the FC and the VTX so can use a radio switch to turn on/off your vtx
You could use an external USB battery - and wire the GPS to the USB powered pads (connect the USB battery, wait for the GPS to lock sats then connect main quad battery and disconnect USB battery)
If your FC has a 4v5 PAD wire up to that for power. That way the gps will get power over the USB bus so you can plug into a power bank to populate your sats while doing something else.
These are great. I use them in all my larger quad builds.
