Wooden Box.

[styks]

Hi all, I'm new to the forum,
Just ordered my Evolv DNA 200 , a 1300mah LiPo and some XT30 connectors.
I'm hoping to be able to build this in a wooden box as I've already done with a SX350J board. I made sure the board is well vented as wood is a decent heat insulator.

Just wondering if there might be any issues with this board regarding NOT grounding to the case? Shielding etc. ...... The SX350J works fine but thought I better ask first.

You will be fine. We have run these in plenty of nonmetallic enclosures, as well as without any enclosure at all. Do make sure you run the case analyzer, though, as your mod's thermal properties will not match the aluminum reference design.

Thanks for the swift response John.

Ok, great stuff, will do.
