GPS/Compass mounting plate for T-Rex 500 Helicopter

This ‘thing’ was actually the reason I bought a 3D printer in the first place.

I needed a mounting for the GPS receiver for my in-progress electric helicopter, and it worked out that it’d be cheaper to buy a printer (Monoprice Maker Select Mini) than it would have been to have something made up in carbon fiber.

So this is fitted for the HobbyKing version of a T-Rex 500 series where it sits up top, just behind the rotor hub.

I’m not 100% sure where I bought the GPS module from, but it says “Neo6 HolyBro Hobby” on the top, and that’s the case-style that will fit the posts on the top of the mount.
