I finally completed my production test fixture, and the first production units are ready to ship.
I'm working on information about this product for the website.
One way to install this altimeter is just flat on a sled like a regular altimeter, but taking up less space. As an example, here is an av-bay sled that fits into a 29mm coupler. The only wiring needed was to connect the battery via an extension cord, because the magnetically-activated power switch is built into the altimeter. This makes it even easier to install than the original Blue Raven.

The charges are connected to the mounting screws on the underside of the board, like so:

This example is for an av-bay sled that fits into a 29mm coupler. In a more typical av-bay you could do it the same way, but with more breathing room.
I'll include the hardware needed for this type of installation in the standard product. I will also have mounting kits available for an installation where the 29mm Blue Raven is mounted across the diameter, and the threaded rods for the av-bay are the terminals. More on this in another post.
These new altimeters will be ready to order from the website today or tomorrow.
I should have the website updated for ordering today or tomorrow.
