A module case for the DIY 4-in-1 multi-protocol module which allows use of the Turnigy 9XR Pro's internal antenna.
To use this case you may need to modify your multi-protocol module - I had to remove the 5-pin header connector from its original position on top of the board and re-solder it underneath. This was done to ensure a good connection with the module bay pins.
As I use my module in serial mode I also removed the bind button so that I could have a completely flush cover plate.
You will need an MCX to IPX/U.FL antenna cable, like this:http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262040276984
In truth 15cm is slightly too long, but the extra coax can be easily looped under the board. 7.5-10cm would probably be better.
I'm still tweaking and fine-tuning, but the parts are essentially functional at this point.
Update:
I've published a version for the newer STM32 board:https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:2788944
