Can we get some closeups of how those servo mounts go together? Is there any special hardware or parts?

My 52% Weeks came in at 61 pounds with the 3W-275 and canisters! This thing is balistic and accelerates going straight up! FANTASTIC power and a great performing flyer. I will have vids soon.

Here is a shot of mine:
