GSN doesn't like the high resolution pictures my phone takes, won't let me upload them

Hmmm. I’ve been using tapatalk and it lets you select the size when posting.

Been working for me at any size.

Screen shots are low res and I hate using tapatalk, I use the normal site, even on my phone

I think the issue is they have the maximum file size set to low. My phone pics range from 2 to 6 mb each

Version 2.3 is better, more tweaking needed though.

I had to turn my camera down to get the files small enough to upload. Some 3D printed and airbrushed N scale goodies

Looking good!

Pretty satisfied with how it fits with the battery. Not sure how I feel about battery vibration protection though. It fits snug. I will have to redesign it from scratch to make room for foam or Velcro.
Also a lot of weight being hung by four screws, small bolts would be ok though I think.
The NoBS A123 pack is pvc wrapped and heatshrink overtop. Unlike most which are just pvc wraped. So it’s a little thicker too.

Been working on a receiver holder for a Futaba R7014SB. The idea is that I can put craft foam on the sides and 1/4” Dubro foam under the receiver. Then you can glue the tray or Velcro it to the plane. Took me about 4-5hours to draw up, prototype and make a version two which looks good to me.

If I may suggest why would you not use tabs on it just like a servo with rubber grommets and servo screws to hold the holder down then you will not need the sponges.
Must say it does look good.

Good Point! The answer is I really didn't think about it. If I find a suitable grummet for the job, I may transition my designs to incorporate that mounting method. Thanks for the input, always appreciated! I must say I hate vibration though!

Why would the grommets from a servo not work. They are able to hold hundreds ozone’s of torque from servo power.
