HD camera

A GoPro session camera can be installed in the designated slot in the front of the wing. A support strap is

used to keep the camera in place.

Push-to-open bays

To provide quick access to the electronics bay, the top bays have a retaining mechanism that can easily be

engaged by pushing on both sides of the bay.

Adhesive cover pads

Once the PDB and gear in the underside bays is installed, use the adhesive pads to cover them.
