FrSky X-Lite cases for popular external module boards

thingiverse

Module cases for FrSky X-Lite radio. Principle is: - Print a module carrier, print finely (I used 0.15mm). - Print the case and cover for your module (R9M, Banggood AVR 4-in-1, Banggood ARM 4-in-1 supplied), doesn't need to be fine (I used 0.25mm). - Glue the carrier to the case with CA. The hole lets pass wires through. - Make a wire harness with pin headers, pin order is the same on the X-Lite as on a JR module (see picture). - Put some clear tape on the Xlite inside the module slot to avoid the header getting glued to it, insert header on X-Lite connector, apply some hot glue to the module carrier, assemble, let cool. Remove module and tape. - Install module and antenna pigtail (design expects you remove what sticks out e.g. the bind button, rotary selector and pins on the BG ARM module, same except for ISP pins on the AVR one, switch/LED board and all pins on R9M). Difference in cases is about height, clearances and hole positions.
