3D model description

Decided to make a thumb style compatible tray for my new Taranis X9D after getting used to using one on my 9XR-Pro.
Only extras needed are an M4x30mm bolt, an M4 nut, an M6x40 bolt/screw, an M6 nut and some CA glue and kicker.

The base and end join together using CA glue and the end plate that stops the radio sliding too far down can either be slid in place or glued also. I used some foam strip to protect the radio at the base where the end plate touches and holds in place.

The 45 degree "shoe" slides forwards and back so it should work for a few different radios that have the handle at the rear.
This works by putting the bolt through the shoe, then this goes into the slot. The M4 nut is glued into the wing nut housing and this then tightens down the shoe from beneath to stop it from moving.
A piece of foam can be added to the shoe also to assist with gripping onto the radio's handle.

The arms are handed and have a raised section which mount inboard to keep the arms at the correct angle. These are then secured in place with the M6 bolt and nut using the cut out to hold the nut in place.

UPDATE
Have uploaded the arms as Left and Right now as I was mirroring them in the slicer but didn't think to add individual files for people who's slicer may not support manipulation.

Have been using the tray for a while now and it works fantastically - definitely couldn't see me using the radio without it now that's for sure!
