xlite controller lanyard mount

thingiverse

the only problem with the xlite controller is the lack of a lanyard loop. This is my attempt. Mine is machined out of aluminum (joys of being an engineer) but it should be fine to reproduce with a 3d printer. I would suggest using petg, printed with a thick wall to enable the insert to fit securely. It should print without supports but this is untested. The hole in the bottom on the model is 3.5mm for an m3 brass insert to be pushed in. To mount the loop you need to take apart the controller and there is a space in between the lcd and the speaker, placing it here also perfectly balances the controller so it hangs down level. (fyi before anyone asks, yes that is a crossfire antenna. I've mounted the crossfire module inside the case of the xlite for a minimal and streamline feel)
