AR Wing / Recruit GPS Perch

thingiverse

I'm working on a build with an AR Wing - same as RMRC Recruit - and need a flat spot to mount my GPS receiver. The original plan was to attach it on top of the fuselage between the motor and hatch, but that wouldn't be ideal since the foam there is quite thin. Moreover, I didn't want to cut into the fuselage at all. So, I decided to create this simple piece to match the contour on top of the fuselage. To secure it in place, I used CA glue. Since PETG was already loaded in my printer, that's what I printed mine with, but PLA should be a suitable alternative. This small part measures approximately 28x28mm to fit the BN-880 GPS module I'm using, which I stuck on top of the "perch" using double-sided foam tape. The wider end is the front.
