UPDATED 09/02/2017: Strut mount gussets get a serious beefing up! Check out m1-15deg-comp-mnt-v3.stl to see the new design! This latest update strengthens the whole package. For full details, visit http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:520060 - this will also give you access to compass mount specifics. You might be wondering how to up your camera protection game? Try slapping 2mm (.078) carbon fiber tubes across those rear and front two legs! I'll be sharing photos of the clamps later. Take a closer look at what's holding up the antennas: blue drinking straws, precision-slitted and easy-peasy removable! No more pesky tape, it works like a charm. Oh, and the compass cable wrapping thingy? You could totally wrap that too in a protective straw shield! This design boasts two sweet compass mounts: one clamps using stock screws, the other using only those very same screws (like in this photo). Which one you choose is up to you! Just remember these details: - Mounting hole goes toward Phantom's top. - Flat side should be inboard and parallel to front-to-rear axis. - Stock screws have the holes that should match the centerline of the compass. Double-check before gluing, because upside down will not do - a whole lot can go awry if it doesn't!
