I've attached the motor, mounted the ESC with some velcro, mounted the FPV camera with some hot glue, and added the control linkages. I also put the FPV antenna in place.

I'm going to use a 5V regulator to power the receiver and servos. The Pololu D24V50F5 will handle up to 5 A, so it should be plenty.
I soldered it up, covered it with some heat shrink, and attached it to the PDB I'm using. I added a ziptie around the PDB to give some strain relief to the battery connector.
Then I could solder the ESC to the PDB and mount the PDB with some velcro and test everything.
Once I tested to make sure everything was working, I mounted the various parts in the bay with velcro.

The wingspan comes in right at 37 in., or about 940 mm.
It weighs in at 1113 g with a GoPro HERO3+ Black and a nano-tech 3S 2250 mAh battery.
