WOW, nice job A4! holy crap, that sure is nice! Is it accurate for measurements?
Fairly accurate. the width is fine, and I used stock length and height. as far as the shim placement, no idea. My controller's still in my truck, and don't really feel like unmounting it atm. when you get your controller back, if you take measurements on fet distances, and ect, I can easily modify my design.
I REALLY like the top cover, I was actually playing with the idea of having something like that. I like how you made the clamping a little narrower and made fins on the outside from the FET's.
The way you made it, it would be much easier to mount the board in there compared to my design.
So.... is your design all do-able? Like as for the parts you have there, like the button, the acrylic cover?
the button, I could resize to any dimensions, I'm not sure where to buy rubber buttons like that.. if you could get the button of the stock case, that could work as well. the LED cover, I figured you'd just steal it off the stock cover. as far as making the entire top an acrylic, I have no idea. and I believe if you mill acrylic, it would look frosted, correct?
Keep it coming, make something like my second design with the heatsink on the bottom... :027:
I was playing with the idea of making the bottom have "tabs" that would screw into the center diff holders. so instead of using the stock diff mount brace, the controller would act as the brace, so if you have metal diff holders, heat could be disipated through the mounts and down to the chassis. I hope that makes sense
Also, do you know what kind of fin pitch (heatsink) is capable with the typical CNC machine?
I honestly have no idea. I have no experience milling myself, I usually just ask whoever's going to be milling it, what the minimums are.
