Subject: | ADAHRS mounting hardware |
I mounted my magnetometer with shoegoo between the HS mounting point under
the Emp fairing. While I get lots of criticism for using shoegoo it hasn't
budged in nearly 7 years/925 hrs, it took about 5 minutes to do and I
didn't have to mess with non ferris hardware, drilling holes or awkwardly
backing up the nuts inside of the end of the tailcone.
