Awesome! I figured the additional connector would be an easy add on later. My soldering skills are pretty low, so building the whole board seemed a little daunting for a first time project. Additionally, does anyone know how well the TX does in a LOC 3.9 E-bay? I know looking through the Eggfinder manual that it says all-thread can interfere with signal. Do most of you guys mount GPS transmitters in the nosecone?
I have only 5 HP rockets, so am far from an expert, but here's how I have mine configured (sorry, no pictures, am at work):
LOC/Precision Norad Pro Max (Level 1 cert) - plywood sled bolted to nose down into payload tube, Eggtimer alt on one side (not yet dual deploy equipped), Eggfinder on the other. The Eggtimer is a rev C which could only handle 3v, so the 3V output of the Eggfinder is perfect, I use it to drive the alt.
Madcow Frenzy (Level 2 cert) - Modified nose cone into removable bulkhead av bay. This was a good bit of work, and I don't feel I got the best bond to the poly nosecone (that stuff is hard to glue/paint, even if you give it a little corona discharge or flame treatment), so I drilled tiny holes and pinned the centering ring in with 7/8" wire nails...I think this one is going to need a picture, will try to remember when I get home.
Rocketry Warehouse Adventurer 3 - Modified nose cone with removable bulkhead av bay. This is the one that lost me my other Eggfinder Tx- I was set up for single deploy, motor eject, and didn't get enough force out of the charge, so it came in ballistic. Amazingly, the Eggfinder was still working, I just physically couldn't get it out of the ground- only 2 feet of the +7' rocket were sticking up out of the hard desert earth, and I could only dig down far enough to get the av bay.
Madcow AGM-Pike - This one is being built now, and because it's 4", I may just use the Frenzy nose cone on this so I don't have to modify the Pike nose...and this way I'll get an extra cone just in case. I may fly this single deploy, in which case I might also just mount it in the payload bay kind of like my Norad? Not sure. I also might just use my Frenzy av bay and get Dual Deploy on this one too.
LOC/Precision Nuke Pro Max - This is being built now too, and will be my test-bed for dual deployment. It flies on everything from an F (maybe even an E28) to a J, so I will definitly be putting the Eggfinder in this, but may see what kind of performance hit I get if I just put it in the AvBay with #6 all thread running through...will let you know. If not, I'll put it in the nose.
