Magnetometer

Made two small beam like brackets of 5mm aluminium, drilled holes and tapped them for m4 bolts. The bolts will be long enough to hold the magnetometer with 4 m4 nuts. All is stainless (non magnetic). Then RTVd them in place, so the bots can easily be replaced (maybe I will use some that are a bit more aerodynamic). The tips are finally ready for paint.

Wing tips, nav lights

Finished with the removable wing tips. Started to figure out how to install lights and the magnetometer. The wingtip lights are supposed to be visible from all around, and therefore needs to be mounted vertically. I think I just use some leftover cuts from the ailerons and see how it works.
