This is version 2 of my custom shell
Designed to use it with FrSky M7 Hall Sensor Gimbals and Crossfire Micro TX. The battery bay was modified to make use of 2 x 18650 cells. Rear shell can be printed with or without the cut-outs for a 2s USB charging balancing board.
- you need to modify the power button (cut to length)
- you remove the internal RF board! it's designed for the TBS corssfire micro module - the existing internal RF board needs to be cut (new org replacement is about $26 - see below)
- you remove the trim pods (never really used them, plug them once, trim and forget...)
