My ol' reliable Raptor 30 still flies on a JR770!! It is a good solid receiver and has lasted for years!
I fastened it to the side of the helo with some foam and zip ties in the void where the tail servo would mount.
(I use a tail mount servo)
I have enclosed a photo of where I mounted it! Now if your running the tail servo in this location I would suggest to wrap it in protective foam and mount it low (below the battery tray) with zip ties... I have seen many flown that way. If not you have several other places you can mount it, give me a PM and I will send additional photos of previous locations...
Hope the info and photo help!

I think he is asking about the JR 770 gyro, if so its going to work the same in either spot. Keeping it under the canopy would save the gyro tape from the oil. Unfortunately the Raptors do not have a dedicated spot under the hood.
