i drilled the holes today all 3 of them

my first 2 were so offset they were almost 5 mm apart the second hole i drill which i did through the first one was dead on and i did a drop ball test the eyes preform fawlessly now all i have to do is plug the hole i dont need drill and tap the eye covers cut the body to allow the eye wires and wire up the new board that i plan on putting in there any recommendations on what i should do?

ill try posting some later if i can find a camera

here are pictures of what i did and i have tested each hole and the all work

[Shibbykins]

you have a few options for covers, the eclipse ones, the A4fly ones or use nasty JBweld stuff.

[§ilentone]

i have eclipse ones and im just going to wait for my dad to help me drill and tap the holes that i need

also how much should i remove from the under side of the body to allow for the eye wires to pass through? and should i remove some from the frame as well?

[Shibbykins]

too bad you dont have the covers for the fly. go into the LCD section of the forum and look for my DIY fly mod. theres pix in there that might be able to help. i used the eclipse ones on that mod also.

do you think the holes are too high?

Photo is blurry but it looks like the eye holes are too high and possible to far back.

i drilled them for roll back but ive tried with a ball and the eyes saw it no matter where it was possitioned

i will probally have to increase the eye delay so i dont chop if i do at all but it should be finished by today so i will update later and hopefully have a video
