Absolutely not, way too big. 6mm too big to be exact. I have a custom 3D printed 6mm spacer coming from the UK to go between the lid and box. Will update post with pics when the thing gets here.

iambyrdman Posted April 8, 2018 Report Share Posted April 8, 2018 I was wondering if it was ok to connect directly. I fried a board and I worried that's what did it but I guess not. I didn't see why it would but it was fried after I tried. Good thing I have a second board and Evolv has such awesome tech support. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's fine to connect directly, better performance wise, you just need to make it the last job and be careful not to short anything with the soldering iron or when fitting to the case, Capton tape can help with that. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had mine for 2 or 3 weeks now with zero replay issues. I'm playing a puff today (Tuesday) that I saved on Saturday. I use SS316L exclusively, what wire are you using?

Alpine Tech N1 case, 2200mah, 4S, NanoTech with a Source 510. 14 gauge battery wire and an XT60. 12 gauge output wire. 16mm full travel switch wired with 28 gauge silicon.

awsum140 Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 The belt clip is a nice addition since neither the GL or N are particularly "pocket friendly". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67exec Posted April 27, 2018 Report Share Posted April 27, 2018 I buy those super cheap Ozark trail knives at Wal-Mart specifically for the clips. For a fold-over design, they have the stongest grip I've found short of an old discontinued kershaw clip that I used to have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did this to my 250. I plan on doing the same for my out and about 250C as well. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rest of the time it hangs on the outside of my pocket, and as a mechanic, so lower is better. Plus, with a decent clip I can roll around on a creeper w/o worrying about it falling off. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Varitube V2 510 - Tattu 3S 1300mah (15.733Wh) Battery life has actually surprised and impressed me to be honest.. Very comparable to my dual 20700 DNA75C (17.996Wh) Tattu is a very reputable brand in the RC quad world which is why I went with them, they can handle massive speed punch out's from racing quads... won't have any issues handling the DNA! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps if I start on something a little cheaper & safer. I love my beat up old DNA 75 MODs, but am sick of having to change the 26650 twice a day, perhaps I should start with a DNA 75 with either duel 26650s or a decent sized LiPo???
