HSD f-16 Avionics hatch with cheater holes

thingiverse

We were having a discussion on boosting airflow to the 105mm fan for our HSD F-16. With the hatch removed, I tried feeling where the negative air pressure was located and it was approximately the last 2.5 inches of the hatch area. I modified the cheater hole section to that region and used Tinkercad to design a custom part. Feel free to print out the hatch modification, but remember to follow all recommended guidelines when operating your HSD F-16. Do not use this in any flight or ground operations: it lacks a secure latching system. It is not intended for actual operation under any circumstances. This modification should not be used for flight operations, ground testing, or static thrust testing. You are solely responsible for your setup, safety, and the safety of those around you. I assume no liability for any loss resulting from use or misuse of this item, including digital modifications.
