Avios C-130 Hercules battery & accessory tray

thingiverse

The purpose of this design is to offer a battery and accessory tray custom fitted for the Avios C-130 Hercules PNF kit. The tray, which replaces the original plywood version, features click-in seats for the FrSky S8R receiver, FrSky FAS40S current sensor and a suitable Turnigy NanoTech 4S 2200mAh 45-90C battery. Using this tray and the battery listed below you don´t have to use any velcro strap to secure the battery, it just clicks into place. The tray is made up of two parts because the battery secure clip has to be printed in a particular orientation be be strong enough for the bending forces that comes with opening the clips when switching battery. This 3D printed solution is slightly heavier than the original plywood battery tray, but IMHO it is worth it. My plane needed some balancing weight aft to get the CG right. I put in in the cargo bay, aft of cargo door. My C-130 flies very nicely. https://hobbyking.com/en_us/avios-c-130-blue-angels-1600mm-pnf.html?queryID=1dd8d03c13caba19bc327bb44a6839a5&objectID=81127&indexName=hbk_live_magento_en_us_products https://hobbyking.com/en_us/turnigy-nano-tech-2200mah-4s-45-90c-lipo-pack.html
