Taranis X9D switch and antenna cover by electromotive_force

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

Taranis switch and antenna cover. I use this in conjunction with some gimbal protectors when i transport my taranis in a backpack. It encloses all switches and the antenna, so no fragile parts are exposed.
Thanks to doomedfpv for his switch cover. I basically slapped a cuboid onto his design.
 
 
 
 
known issues:
This switch cover is not perfect. In particular, the two round pots of the taranis end up taking a good amount of the force experienced by the cover when it is pushed in some directions. Particularly for downward pressure (towards the screen and feet of the tx) i wanted to add a better solution, but so far i couldn't motivate myself to do it. The idea is to add some plastic to the area shown in the last image. This would brace the switch cover directly against the case of the taranis. Any downward forces would be taken off of the pots and channelled into the silver plastic "ring" surrounding each gimbal.
