Summitlink White Case with Fan for ADS-B Raspberry Pi Stratux DIY Kit, Matte Finish Tool Free Assembly (Does not fit AHRS)
- When I first got into the Stratux world I was seeing all kinds of DIY homemade project boxes, I liked the idea of ADS-B In for under $150 and finding the right case was critical since I didn\'t want to be that Arduino guy at the airport. This Summitlink case did the job. I was expecting a 3D printed plasticky box but instead got a very nice professional sturdy plastic case.I initially mounted the Pi slanted accidentally, and then closed the case shut hard on one side, WHOOPS. Well the plastic clips were up against the Raspberry Pi, so it was really hard to pull the cover off. I\'m thankful that this isn\'t cheap plastic or else I would\'ve broken a clip or two when I carefully pried it open again. This case can take a beating so it\'s road worthy.I like the extra cooling vents, and the holes designed for other equipment such as the GPS cable. It\'s well thought out.Final thoughts, I wanted to add AHRS and the device I wanted to add was the \"Stratux AHRS Sensors and Fan Controller \" but I asked around and apparently it wont fit with the plastic cover shut, the antenna cable and fan are in the way. Maybe the future version will have extra height clearance for this little AHRS sensor.Good box, definitely gets attention. Highly recommended!
- This case is great for a Stratux project. The 2 NESDR\'s have to be diagonal in order to fit, but that is due to the Raspberry Pi USB spacing. The USB cover barely fits over the two NESDR minis - another mm or 2 would make it easier, but it does fit. Cooling hasn\'t been a problem, with the temp only getting up to 55C in the sun on the car dash. OAT of 75F. I wonder if a RPi standard heat sink would fit if needed. Great case for a Stratux.
- Great case, everything fits pretty good. I felt the antenna connectors needed more room though. There were also no instructions for connecting the fan wire to the pins on the motherboard. I had to Google a schematic. Otherwise a great product. It\'s roughly the same size as my charger and I was able to set them up together with a ram mount using parts I already had. See pic.
- Was a little sceptical when it was assembled out of the box, but a quick flip open with my knife and I was underway. The pi snapped into place well, and the grooves for the antenna wires works out well, and the case looks great. The details say that it will fit the GPS (and it would) but only if it had less wire. After a little more homework I might be able to rewire the GPS to fit, but I\'m sure it works better remotely anyway.
- This is what 3-D printing is made for. Perfect fit, everything snaps together effortlessly. Everything fits perfectly.Unlike my friend, who bought the acrylic case that was glued together (glue fell apart, components had to be screwed together using tiny screws upside down in holes deep inside delicate electronics). It took us 2 hours to assemble the same Stratux radio using the acrylic case vs under 10 minutes using the 3-D printed case.
- Used this to replace my original clear case, this is significantly more robust and purpose built. It looks very professional and fits everything like a glove. I especially appreciate the sliding door that exposes the usb ports. Don\'t usually write reviews as I expect things to be what they represent, but this is just outstanding.
- I had to modify the case in order to install the AHRS unit. I had to relocate the antennas. Otherwise it\'s great.
- One of the best cases made for the Stratux project! Quality is excellent as is the layout. Just be patient the first time you need to separate the case ... a small flat-head screw driver will come in handy.
