Heltec V4 case h1iv with GPS

Version 2 of Heltec V4 case h1iv. 

This version is 12mm longer to allow room for the GPS module. 
 

 

This model was created by tehspiah on printables. The printables link is: https://www.printables.com/model/1455664-h1-iv-case-for-heltec-v4-modified-muzi-works-h1

I printed with no supports and had zero issues.

This is a modified version of the original H1 case by Muziworks. I wanted to play around with a Heltec V4 because of the higher transmit power, but the relocated power and GPS plugs made it not entirely compatible with the H1. 

Other people have remixed larger versions of the H1 case to fit larger batteries, but I like the small minimalist size of the H1. 

Unfortunately because of the GPS/GNSS pins, a thin 8mm battery would not sit flush with the original case backing, so I had to extend it by 2.7mm to fit the GNSS pins against the battery.
