OK, duh. When I put the tail box together I partly assembled it and then slid it onto the tail boom until it wouldn't go on any further. Doing it...
Thanks @smakmeharder, I was sure the belt was correct so I'll start pulling the tail apart and see what's going on.
Almost finished the mechanical build, and am just at the stage of installing the motor. I can't for the life of me seem to get the belt to fit...
Put it together with two screws per servo and it seems fine; once it's mounted in the frames it should square up nicely. I also got a reply back...

Thanks for all the replies @Mannyc, @Finky and @smakmeharder. That's all great to know. Interesting to hear that you could shoehorn an 1800 pack...
Is the CoG OK with the 1400mAh ones @Finky? I've read people saying that some 1400s were a bit heavy, but I don't know what actual weight those...
Thanks, @feral. I guess that means that 35C should keep a stock mini protos motor plenty well fed.
So, I went to the Sandown RC festival on Sunday and walked away with a Mini Protos, as you do. Now I'm in the process of putting together all the...
Thanks for the comments everyone, and have fun and stay safe over there @Jeff B!
Thanks guys, that's good to know!
Awesome, thanks Nate, that makes things easier!
Awesome, thanks! Are there any brands that are particularly worth looking at in Aus?
