Right, dogging time, see y'all later
Phil
Would you like to re-phrase that Phil?

Re: A brace of Pixies - Irvine & OS
That is a great job Ron!
Due to the tight space, I didn't attempt to set my Pixie MK 1 up as a stand alone TX, but installed the version of Phil's module that allows it to be used as a SC buddy box plugged into a JR/Spektrum radio.
Note - I positioned a better quality micro switch to give a much better feel to the button.

Re: A brace of Pixies - Irvine & OS
In case (?) anyone is about to make a Pixie enclosure, I've just modded the case to accept a 20mm brass M3 hex standoff at Ron's suggestion. The thread was stripping out after some minor use. There's now a c'sk 3mm hole in the case rear to accept a c'sk M3 screw - still a bit of a post inside to offer some support.Igull wrote: ↑21 Mar 2018, 22:20 The whole design is now open source and you can download all of the files from Thingiverse - https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2835200
The back has also been modified with 'MADE IN JAPAN' text
Back available as 'new pixie case back' at the above thingiverse address.
Cheers

Hi Ron
Can you put me down for a set of stickers please?
There's no rush as I'm on holiday at the moment, in fact not too far from you. We're renting a cottage near Pickering and yesterday when we visited Whitby I saw signs for Guisborough,
Cheers

Hi Mike
Yes no problem, I’ll knock you a set up.
I was in Whitby on Saturday, well passed through it on the way to Scarborough.
Nice indoor flea market in Pickering.

Just to finish the set off,
How about a RX pack and receiver to match.

I think one of us need to 3D print you a Pixie Rx case in translucent white, then fit a FrSky V8R4-II or a D4R-II inside (both should fit OK). It would really look the part then
