Default Best spot to mount radio?

Mount the radio
on the right or left (57mm) and make a support bracket to hold the
weight of the radio.

Modern radios are quite light. The Dittel KRT-2 I bought this year fits a
57mm hole. It weighs 150g, the case is 150 x 60 x 60mm with a BNF antenna
connection and a D-15 for everything else on its rear end.

The ATR-500 it replaced is about the same weight and 30mm longer.
