Electronics Bay help

[rockets]

I got a LOC 2.56 ebay kit from a fellow rocketeer!
And, I started to put it together..
I glued the inner tube inside the outer tube. I glued the 1" BT piece on. And then, I glued the 1/8 inch cardboard tubes to the sled.
But, what's next?
Where do I drill holes? How big do the holes need to be? And what happens after that?




Thanks,

Here is a good place to start:

Also read up on your altimeter. Most instructions tell you what size you need.

The holes on your sled will be drilled for the particular altimeter you are using.
The holes in the bulkplates will depend on how you want to mount charge wells and pass wires through.
The holes in your switchband and body tube will depend on altimeter. Which will likely be three holes at 0.134" or 5/32", another calculator suggests 3/64". So whichever suits you.
