Would you like to re-phrase that Phil?

That is a great job Ron!
Due to the tight space, I didn't attempt to set my Pixie MK 1 up as a stand alone TX, but installed the version of Phil's module that allows it to be used as a SC buddy box plugged into a JR/Spektrum radio.
Note - I positioned a better quality micro switch to give a much better feel to the button.

In case (?) anyone is about to make a Pixie enclosure, I've just modded the case to accept a 20mm brass M3 hex standoff at Ron's suggestion. The thread was stripping out after some minor use. There's now a c'sk 3mm hole in the case rear to accept a c'sk M3 screw - still a bit of a post inside to offer some support.
The back has also been modified with 'MADE IN JAPAN' text

Back available as 'new pixie case back' at the above thingiverse address.
Cheers

Back on the original subject of this thread, did anyone ever manage to do a basic drawing for an irvine pixie ??
If so, scan it and mail me the details please.
Cheers

Hi Ron
Can you put me down for a set of stickers please?
There's no rush as I'm on holiday at the moment, in fact not too far from you. We're renting a cottage near Pickering and yesterday when we visited Whitby I saw signs for Guisborough,
Cheers
Mike

Hi Mike
Yes no problem, I’ll knock you a set up.
I was in Whitby on Saturday, well passed through it on the way to Scarborough.
Nice indoor flea market in Pickering.
Ron.

Just to finish the set off,
How about a RX pack and receiver to match.

I think one of us need to 3D print you a Pixie Rx case in translucent white, then fit a FrSky V8R4-II or a D4R-II inside (both should fit OK). It would really look the part then
